River Retreat with private apartment and deck on the beautiful Delaware River

Sit on the deck and watch the river and wildlife (there is a baldheaded eagles nest nearby, lots of dear, beaver, river otter, etc.) At sunrise the sky and river have a fantastic salmon-pink hue.
The vacation home is air-conditioned and features a kitchen and a patio, and there's space to spread out with 2 bedrooms. Guests can expect to find free WiFi and a Smart TV with a DVD player. Other standard amenities include a coffee maker, an ironing board, and a dining table.

Coming in from NY, this homestead was a perfect home for lengthy discussions and reflections. The home was emaculate and comfortable. Stewart, the host, was very welcoming and helpful. We will definitely follow up with a return visit.

Loved this Riverside retreat home! Very clean, lots of room, and the kitchen had coffee, cream and sugar. Host was very accommodating and friendly. Absolutely loved the area - such a beautiful and peaceful location with a lovely porch and great view! Very nice additions included a fire pit , swing chair, and ping pong table! Would definitely return and recommend.

Stuart was cool and very helpful! He came down to change the thermostat batteries after I’d arrived. The residence was very clean and well stocked, just as lovely as the photos had shown (albeit the dead plants outside because we came right after winter). Loved visiting Lumberville General Store for breakfast, Peddler’s Village in Lahaska and Lambertville/New Hope (both only 18 minutes away!). Beautiful riverside view as well and walking distance via towpath to Bulls Island bridge. Bedrooms are super cute!

This River Retreat was exactly that — such a well appointed lovely haven. Even though it was still winter, the weather was warm enough to enjoy the lovely hammock swing on the deck. Stuart was incredibly responsive and very accessible regarding any possible question or need. Since the River Haven sits between Frenchtown on one side and Lambertville and new Hope on the other, fabulous food and lovely boutiques, and everything else. These small towns offer are a short drive in either direction.We very much enjoyed our too-short stay and look forward to returning in the hopefully near future.

Even in the heart of frozen winter the River Retreat proved to be a welcome respite from the world--that includes everything from the private view of the Delaware River, to the nightly sounds of owls. Can't imagine how nice it would be the other seasons!

The apartment is clean and well equipped for whatever your your adventures might lead to...and there is plenty to do in the immediate area. That said, it was tough to tear ourselves away from the beautiful view on the deck! Stuart is a phenomenal host.

We were looking for a peaceful retreat along the river we have loved for many years. River Retreat provided that for us. We biked 40 miles along the towpath. Fished near Bulls Island. Ate at wonderful restaurants nearby. Sipping coffee in the morning listening to birds, crickets and watching the gentle river. Thank you Stu.

I rented this place according to pictures and reviews. This house apartment was filthy. I had to clean refrigerator before i put my food in. Kitchen appliances filthy, dirty spots on kitchen walls with some thing stuck on it. Black mold in 1 bedroom and bathroom. Dust on everything. A small used peice of soap for us to reuse in the shower. Icing on the cake was when my son found a mouse in his bed, and mouse droppings on the extra towels we were to use! I suffer with a serious immune deficiency from a stem cell transplant, and the conditions of this unit are dangerous for me to be around. The picture shown must be very old, because there is no clear view as shown, its covered in vines. I have stayed in many vrbo's, this was the worst. The add says to treat this as if it is your house, I do not live like this, its unacceptable.

My family stayed here for a wedding in newtown. What a lovely apartment! It was a rainy cooler june weekend so we didnt get to enjoy the outdoor space as much but parts of the patio/deck was covered which was great. The pingpong table and some porch areas needed a sweep but otherwise it was delightful, clean, cozy. We’d stay here again.

The beds and covers were dirty. Same for pillows and carpets. I have been renting from vrbo for ten years, it is the first time I have rented such a dirty house. I ask vrbo to help me pay all my payments back.

Lovely first family getaway!

We brought our 11 month old on her first family weekend trip, and this place was perfect. We love New Hope and know it well, and this was a nice distance from there to accommodate naps and doing some sightseeing. Super close access to the canal trails, and the most awesome porch. We spent most of our time out there when at the rental!
