The space
The cottage is complete with a kitchen with stainless steel appliances, cookwear, a dishwasher, and washer/dryer. Climb up the ship ladder to the bedroom with a queen bed and ample linens, along with a private desk area perfect for working remotely, writing or drawing. It is very steep and anyone with mobility issues should be aware of this layout.
We sit on the canal which is currently full.

The main floor has a sofa that is comfortable for one person to sleep (not a sofa bed) with extra linens. The private yard has seating to enjoy the Delaware Canal wildlife. The cottage is a short walk away from the shops and restaurants on Main Street. The cottage has WiFi and a Smart TV, and Roku included.

Note: This is a split level space with safe but steep stairs to the bedroom area and is not suitable for those with ambulatory challenges.

Guest access
Guests have access to the entire cottage and yard.

Other things to note
There is a gravel parking spot directly in front of the cottage.
The yard is not fenced.


Dogs are welcome, but we cannot allow cats due to allergy concerns expressed by many guests. Thank you for your understanding!
