Absolutely loved our stay in this historic property! It was comfortable and warm for our New Year’s Eve stay. Loved the view of the river with swans. Such and interesting place. Hope to see it in the spring someday.
The property was just as described. The whole property was fenced in and the driveway was gated providing security for our two Australian Shepherds that love to run. We spent a lot of time out in the yard throwing frisbees and balls for them. They got to chase the 100's of geese once, but after that the geese stayed on the pond, so they did not get to do it again. The kitchen and foyer was very cozy, and the historic house was really cool. I especially liked the basement living area, and managed to get a couple of naps in down there. We made good use of the kitchen as we cooked a prime rib, a ham, turkey and ribs, as well as baking Christmas cookies. The kitchen was very well stocked. We had dinner with each of our daughters and grandkids on different nights, and it was a great place to spend time with them. Thank you Ernesto for everything. We thoroughly enjoyed the property and our stay.
We stayed at this lovingly maintained home over a long weekend. This historical home has been completely renovated to include all the modern conveniences one could need without sacrificing any of the original details. It's so warm and welcoming! The large property is peaceful and fully fenced (with the exception of the edges of the lake) so it was perfect for our pup to roam safely. We sipped our morning coffee while watching bald eagles and osprey and finished our day with a thrilling trip to the Cowtown Rodeo. What a perfect day! Thank you Ernesto for sharing this incredible home and for being such an excellent host!
This house was exactly as explained and then some. The old mill is fun and gorgeous and fully stocked. Personal touches made the stay even more enjoyable. Thank you for sharing this beautiful property with our family.
My family and I were so impressed with this property. It has been meticulously maintained and combines the best of history and modern comfort. Dating back to 1768, core elements of the home have been maintained and preserved for over 250 years while adding a state of the art kitchen not to mention top-of-the-line electrical and plumbing. Best AC in all the homes we stayed in! The property management is tops with Ernesto. Couldn’t recommend more highly. Beautiful grounds. Only point to note is there are better lakes around to kayak and paddleboard on; consider Lake Parvin and Sunset Lake. Property is also just an hour from Atlantic City or to Cape May (we preferred Cape May!)
