This is a beautiful family-friendly historic mansion on a private lake.

Very large historic property with plenty of room to gather, near the Delaware canal walking trail.

The host was very attentive to our needs. And the property was extremely lovely. We were very pleased.

We enjoyed our stay. Had a little glitch with the VRBO app that made communication challenging. There were a few things that needed tending to. We plan to stay again. Lots of wonderful indoor and outdoor spaces.

We has an incredible time at the property, so much space, fully stocked cooking areas in the house and by the pool, the tennis/basketball court & pool were all great, and such easy access via train from NYC.

Lots of amenities, pictures are pretty accurate

We loved the charm and space of this property. We were here for a family reunion and Boxwood did not disappoint. Especially since we knew the family that lived in this house many years ago, we loved seeing the old pictures and art. It is a special place. The pool, hot tub and lakefront living room were popular with our group!

Boxwood was a unique and charming place. Eric was very communicative and accommodating. The house has tons of space and unique character. Works great for large or extended families.

We had 7 adults come together for our daughter’s graduation and this home could not have been more perfect. Plenty of room for everyone with room to spare. The grounds were incredible and the pool was a welcomed way to cool down on a warm day. Wish we could have stayed longer!

First, the good stuff; the location is enchanting. The house itself is full of history and charm - there was even a secret staircase! Everyone in our group was enchanted by the lower level of the original house. From the cozy study to the spacious living room and all the other unique rooms, the house had character. And if you're into photography, you'll love how photogenic the place is. So many perfect places to take pictures.We had a large group of 25 people and the house accommodated us comfortably. There was plenty of bedding for everyone, plenty of refrigerator space, and more than enough cookware to prepare meals for a crowd.Parking wasn't a problem either - there was more than enough room for all of our vehicles. We visited in April when it was still a little too cold to use the pool area.Now for the not so great parts.The house is clearly aging and in need of some TLC. There are visible signs of water damage in certain areas, and some rooms had a noticeable musty smell. We also encountered a fair amount of bugs - stink bugs, spiders, etc. (This was disclosed in the listing, so it wasn't a surprise, but it's worth repeating). Dead bugs piled up in window ledges. There was peeling paint and general wear and tear in several parts of the house, which detracted from the overall experience. The list of beds on the listing isn't entirely accurate either. The listing pictures are also several years out of date, but are mostly accurate.

Our group really enjoyed the stay at Boxwood. There were tons of different rooms and space for us all. Some of the older family members really enjoyed learning about the history of the property as well.

We were in town for a wedding, seven of us. We had plenty of space to get ready and stay. Some of our family came over the day after the wedding and we enjoyed the property, the space, and the rooms accommodated some additional people to stay the night. It is an older home with amazing charm and awesome for group photos. Like they said, not a 5 star hotel but it makes up for it in amenities, location and space. We loved our stay.
