“A Gem”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed May 28, 2013

A beautiful house, very clean rooms and an amazing breakfast. We could not get over the three course breakfasts! One day it was a blueberry muffin, poached pear and then amazing french toast. Great location-- you can walk to town. There is a kayak place five minutes away as well.

“Like a Different World”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed May 23, 2013

This is a wonderful place to retreat to when we want to get away from the big city. The cottage is not only cozy and beautifully appointed, but it enchanted us from the start. We feel each time we come as if we entered a different world. And Frenchtown itself is enchanting - a slice of a old American straight... More

“A Great Escape...”

My girlfriend and I wanted to get away for a much needed break from our daily stressful lives and we didn't want to "break the bank". I had heard about The Widow McCrea from a friend, so we decided to give it a shot. We opted to stay in the cottage and we absolutely loved it! It was just what... More

“A Needed and Delighted Getaway”

The previous three or four months had been pretty stressful for my wife and me. So, we were looking for a B & B in a nice area, not far from Philadelphia (our home) to relax and reconnect with each other. After browsing B & Bs in the New Hope, PA area I chose (with wifely input) the Widow McCrea... More

“Perfect Getaway”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed April 15, 2013

Although I live only an hour from Frenchtown, I enjoy the area for its scenic beauty and great restaurants, so I decided to surprise my husband with a weekend getaway in the Kase Cottage at the Widow McCrea House. We were blessed with perfect spring weather to start with, but the fireplace in the cottage gave us an excuse to... More

“Weekend getaway”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed April 15, 2013

Best and most relaxing weekend getaway in a long time. More than ample and yummy breakfasts, if you can finish them! The room was particularly unexpected. Very private and comfortable with its own fire place kitchenette and ample bathroom.

“A very special experience in a great location with lots of thoughtful extras.”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed April 14, 2013 via mobile

I spent a delightful week at the Widow,when last in town for a special event. Seeing friends and family was terrific, but returning to my luxurious suite and relaxing in clean and beautiful surroundings, soaking in my Jacuzzi with a glass of complimentary (and very good) wine was the topper.Or so I thought...until breakfast! Chef Lynn was amazing!
