It was a nice little town with a very comfy stay. Host was very helpful. Having your own parking spot was also great! On a side note the owner of the Ship Bottom Brewery, Robert Zarko tends to hold food trucks in that same parking lot because he has a little area where his costumers can drink in front of the parking lot. Robert Zarko backed into my car the last day of my stay. Not the hosts fault. Just be weary since it is a tight parking lot. Aside from that a perfect stay!

We really enjoyed our stay. The location was excellent and perfect for the train to Philadelphia. It was comfortable and quiet accommodation. I would say however that it could do with a bit of a makeover as the decor and furnishings were rather tired.

Loved the cottage and loved the area. Will be returning to this cottage for more Phillies games from our home in North Carolina.

I can give nothing but positive feedback on this property.
Not only was it essentially a home away from home, during my stay in Pennsylvania, it too met all my needs an accommodations.
The host Russell couldn't have been more friendlier an helpful, from when I booked my the location back in August of 2023, all the way to up to my entire time, of being in the area this past week. He not only responded in a timely manner from beginning to end, he too was understanding to my late arrival on the initial day of check-in, an was kind enough to make sure there was proper lighting at the property, so that I was not walking into a dark setting.
This location did the job of giving me a safe an secure stay for both my dog an I, in what is a beautiful neighborhood, near the town's various means of transportation i.e. train, bus, etc. . You get your own assigned parking spot on site, an are within a quiet community, that is very welcoming.
I very much recommended this property to anyone looking to visit Pennsylvania, especially the bigger cities of Philadelphia. It allows you to be within close proximity of towns such as the latter, whilst avoiding having to be directly within in it all.

Stayed at this rental while in town for a live review course over 4 nights and really enjoyed myself. The rental is cozy and located in a safe neighborhood. Lots of cute shops and food options in walking distance. The host was quick to respond if I had any questions too. Furniture (including the bed) was very comfy. Mood lighting in each room was really cool as well. Only 15 minutes from the airport area which was helpful. I would stay here again.

Great stay! Walking distance to all things Swarthmore College! Located just behind Hobbs - the local coffee hangout for the community and the school. Bed was extremely comfortable, property was clean and quiet. I was there over the weekend and each night there was a food truck on the other side of the parking lot playing music - could not hear a note of it in the bedroom! Reserved parking spot is clearly noted and a definite plus as parking can be scarce. The Co-op is the next block over and great for picking up ready made food/sandwiches and snacks for the room. Will definitely stay again!

Cottage with living room and a small kitchen with bedroom and bathroom. The train station is close and there is a village close by too. Good for two people staying over for a quick stop !

We enjoyed our stay at the cottage while passing through on our trip home. Russell was very quick to respond in our messages back and forth. Their small town is so nice to get a quick dinner which is in walking distance. I felt the bed was not very comfortable it was too soft for my liking but my husband was happy with it. We enjoyed our resting time here and I would be happy to return again.

The only reason I have 4 stars to communication with the property manager is because the vrbo website had major issues on my check in day and I could not connect to get checkin information - but he made every effort to reach me - not knowing that I could not respond because of the system issues!
