Perfect relaxing vacation

This home was breathtaking. The property manager anticipated and provided for all our needs - even before we recognized some of those needs! That thoughtful attention to detail allowed us to really relax. The entire stay was very therapeutic for weary people who spend our lives taking care of others.

Terrific property!

Six friends and I rented Joan's lovely pace for a personal reunion, and our 50th high school reunion for a week in June. The VRBO pictures and descriptions did not do the place justice! So many comfy places to gather inside and out, and the added attraction of being right on the Delaware River made our 4-night stay extra special. The house was spotlessly clean; the kitchen well-appointed, and all the bedrooms were very comfortable. Joan is the consummate hostess who was available from the moment we booked our stay a year in advance to the moment we left. There are so many cute towns and villages nearby for those who want to explore, and a walking/biking trail along the old canal towpath. I highly recommend this wonderful home away from home!

Magnificent Property!

Our stay was wonderful from start to finish. Joan was a fantastic host—communication was seamless, and she shared great local tips on dining, arts, and shopping. The house is beautifully furnished, with lovely Bucks County-inspired art, high-quality linens, and a huge, well-equipped kitchen that easily accommodated our group of 12. The living room was perfect for gathering, and the many large windows offered stunning river views and eagle sightings.Guests loved the walkability—crossing the nearby bridge lets you stand in both NJ and PA. The spacious deck, yard, fire pit, and riverside seating created plenty of relaxing outdoor spaces. While parking is limited to six cars, we managed with nearby off-site parking. No cleaning fee was a great bonus. Highly recommend this unique and welcoming home, and we've already booked for next year's stay!

In August 2025 we had the perfect family vacation at the River House. My family of 9, ranging in age from 9 to 77, spent 5 nights in Joan’s beautiful house. I am in a wheelchair and have never stayed at a more handicapped accessible rental. Joan was helpful and gracious and when my bed was too high, she helped us work out a perfect solution and the elevator to all four floors was a lifesaver. The house was wonderfully furnished with everything we needed from kitchenware to beach towels. We enjoyed eating in the gorgeous kitchen or on the deck with breath taking views of the Delaware River.From swimming and tubing on the river, bike riding, playing croquet, or walking across the bridge to get bagels & coffee in Milford, it was a joy to be there. We watched movies in her spacious living room, went shopping at Peddlers Village, and checked out several cute little villages like Frenchtown and New Hope ( where we enjoyed more shopping, pizza and ice cream). We also tried our hands at making music at Ringing Rocks. It was so much fun that my sixteen year old grandson said we should do it again. Thanks Joan.

Excellent location and perfect house.

Everything was great! Supplies galore (even baking ingredients to include chocolate chips!) Everything was perfectly labeled (no guessing which switch works which lights) The space is gianormous and every room has its own full bathroom and wonderful views. We highly recommend it.

Exceptional in every way!

This riverfront property is exceptional in every way! Perfect location to enjoy the Delaware’s calm and scenic water right from your own dock — tubing, kayaking, fishing, paddle-boarding, or just taking in the majestic view from any of the four decks! Walk or bike the towpath, meander through the unique shops, galleries and eateries nearby, or cook your own meal in Joan’s fantastically equipped kitchen! The home is designed for flexible living, offering a huge family-style dining table and multiple gathering spaces that are spacious, comfortable and cozy. Every area of the home is appointed with comfort and convenience in mind — top-of-the-line furnishings, thoughtfully curated decor, luxurious linens, sporting equipment for all ages, and an elevator! Joan is a perfect host. You will see the attentive care that she put into this gracious home reflected in your interactions with her. Don’t miss the opportunity to visit this exceptional property!

Beyond Expectations

The home owner went out of her way to make our stay wonderful. Not only was the home beautiful, fully equipped and clean, Joan, the host, did everything she could to assure our stay was great. Even though she herself was traveling we could text her and heard back right away snd she even called several times to make sure all good. Home is as advertised. Great location, beautiful views with a deck by the river. Garage and elevator were a big plus. Would love to come back again.

Great Gathering Place

While the photographs of this riverside home are accurate, they cannot do justice to the ambience and delight experienced. Every level has its own deck and each deck has an expansive view of the river.We gathered for a small family reunion of siblings and spouses. We all had our own bedroom and bath, as well as our own floor. The house provided many areas to gather together or find space for some alone time. Whether in the expansive kitchen or one of the many decks, the house set the tone for a warm and welcoming experience.Just before we met, one of us had an injury and the elevator was a great help.In addition, Joan, the owner, was exceptional and helpful before we even arrived.This would be a great gathering place for a multigenerational family and I would love to return with my children and grandchildren. I can’t sing the praises enough for this most welcoming home. A jewel in Upper Black Eddy!

Amazing house, fully stocked and beautiful!

This is was the best vacation house we have ever been in, bar none. It is almost unbelievable how well stocked it is, from the kitchen to the tool closet, etc. that’s all on top of a great layout with dual sided fireplace, amazing yard and private dock, and very clean conditions.

Best Family Christmas

This home was perfect for our family Christmas. We loved the river, space, privacy, and the fireplace. The kitchen was fully stocked with everything for a holiday meal.

From our first conversation with the owner, we knew this would be a great fit for our family. The river house and the grounds are beautiful! So much thought went into creating a comfortable and relaxing atmosphere. Whether you are hiking, kayaking, canoeing, reading on the river deck, shopping in nearby quaint towns or just watching the hummingbirds from the kitchen windows, this home has all you need for a perfect vacation.

Our stay at Joan’s River House was an experience my family aged 3 to 70 truly enjoyed. The house is big enough for a large group and yet cozy and peaceful. It is thoughtfully and beautifully decorated creating areas of interest throughout the house. The elevator is a bonus, especially when bringing in the luggage and was a huge hit with the grandchildren. JOAN is the consummate host having thought of everything and creating a very organized environment saving you time and allowing you to just get down to enjoying the comfort of her home. We hope to be back soon!

A Wonderful Reunion

We (three families of old college friends, each with kids between 1-10 years old) spent a long weekend at the house, and it was a wonderful venue for us to connect. We made the top floor the "Kid Zone", which was perfect as it had a bunch of individual beds and musical instruments. This allowed our kids to have a great time together, while giving the adults the opportunity to catch up. Joan was an amazing host, and went above and beyond to make sure we were happy with our stay. I can't want to come back again, as we all agreed we'd love to make this an annual tradition!

Awesome Deleware River Home

This is our 2nd year staying at this home. It literally has everything..even an elevator ( great for bringing in luggage and supplies) Would be easier to say what it doesnt have that to list everything that’s there for you! ( even 2 sets of washer dryers ) Cant say enough about place or about hosts (Joan is a text away and soo accommodating). They home is as beautiful as the pictures. A great family home..if you decide to rent here you wont be disappointed and most likely you’ll return!

Beautiful riverfront home

My family and I had a wonderful stay at this beautiful riverfront property. The home is immaculate, one of the cleanest rental property I’ve come across. The property is beautifully landscaped with bamboo fencing. We definitely appreciated the elevator for a disabled family member. The grocery store is nearby in case anything is needed. Joan was very gracious and attentive to our needs. We enjoyed canoeing/kayaking/tubing on the river (all provided). We also enjoyed a nice evening around the fire pit. We all had such fun entertaining my 3 year old niece on the upper floor with all sorts of musical instruments (none of us musically inclined). This home is exceptional. Great place for family bonding. We plan on returning.

I needed a house a my extended family for my sons wedding. This river home was perfect. The house was beautiful and meet all our needs. The grandparents loved the elevator. The home allows for great together time and allows privacy when wanted. The multiple decks and outside amenities made you like you were somewhere special at all time. Joan has appointed this house with anything you can need . You can tell Joan takes great care of her home and her guest. Her availability to guest is amazing.

Extraordinary Place to Relax or Not!

I can't say enough good things about this home or it's host. My husband and I, two adult children and future son-in-law came to stay and visit with my ailing mother. The master on main and elevator were key for someone with her limited mobility and it's a great way to get your things easily to any floor. Beautiful inside and out, cozy and warm (it was winter, and it snowed), and the decor was stunning. Everyone had their own space and bath and the living and kitchen space with the two-sided fireplace provided an excellent setting to relax, catch up and enjoy each other's company. We did not get to enjoy the outdoors much but are already thinking of coming back when we can! You will want for nothing here. Quaint towns nearby to shop and eat. Plenty of things to do at the house as well. The host, Joan, could not have been more kind, responsive or accommodating to our needs. My only complaint is it's soooo comfy you won't want to go home! So go, stay, enjoy and tell Joan we say Hi!

Another 5-star review

A group of 11 adults stayed here together, all of whom now consider this place a cherished spot. Every room has thoughtful touches and beautifully arranged comforts. Wonderful views of the river, fantastic kitchen for group meals, and enough space for everyone. Joan as a host was next-level in her welcome communication and kindness. We felt completely able to focus on simply enjoying cozy, quiet time with our group without worrying about whether we had what we would need. The house feels personal and established, like staying at one’s own family home, with every need seemingly already considered and planned for in its offerings. It’s clear that Joan cares about this home and about guests having a good experience. The five star reviews from every past guest are well deserved.

Hidden Oasis

This house has it ALL. It is an absolute dream to stay at. While having easy access to the river from the back yard, you still had a full back yard to run and play in! It was a delight that each bedroom not only had its own bathroom but also balcony, almost as if each was its own bed and breakfast. Staying as a family of multiple married couples, children and young adults, there was always something for someone to be doing! Every part of the house is thought through, including the elevator from car port to any floor! There is so much pride taken in the design and care of this house and it shows in every aspect! Not far down the road was an ice cream shop, strawberry picking and an amazing bagel place! Truly as lovely as the pictures showed it!
