Neighborhood highlights
Our property is adjacent to the 'Giving Pond' which sits on a 150-acre preserved section of the Delaware Canal State Park. Its a great place to fish, kayak, picnic or just relax by the lake. Its home to a variety of frogs and turtles, and is known to be a popular destination for birdwatchers.
If you enjoy long walks (2.5 miles), the canal path will lead you to the Homestead Cafe & Roastery, where you can enjoy coffee, breakfast or lunch while sitting outside watching the ducks swim along the canal.
You can also take the canal path to Ulherstown Road and cross the bridge that delivers you into the quaint village of Frenchtown. Once you arrive, the Delaware river will provide a captivating backdrop as you spend the day exploring art galleries, gift shops, restaurants and cafes.
We're within 20 minutes of Ringing Rocks park, Lake Nockamixon and High Rocks where you can hike, kayak, mountain bike or rock climb.
The Delaware river is minutes away and is very popular for canoeing, kayaking and tubing (local rentals are available). Paddling on the Giving Pond is also an option, if you're more comfortable on a calmer body of water.
The property sits among nature and is home to many wildlife. You may notice deer, fox, owl, hawks and if you get lucky, a soaring bald eagle.
NOTE: We're also surrounded by many bodies of water (Delaware river, neighboring lake, Giving Pond and the Delaware canal) as well as an abundance of vegetation, so you may come across insects at certain times during the year.
