Peaceful apart, yet near adventures.

This beautiful one bedroom is a finished room above a garage (boathouse). The expansive deck overlooks the east branch of Brandywine Creek. It's a great place to sit in the evening, or anytime for that matter. I took a nice dip in the creek. My wife and I took the place for four days as a getaway/disconnect vacation. The house is conveniently located a four-minute walk from downtown Downingtown. We had easy access to several good restaurants, including the Downingtown Diner, scene of the diner that was featured in the 1958 movie, The Blob. Within a ten-minute walk was a nice paved walking trail and very nice parks. Overall the location is great. Downingtown is quaint and you are close to the Valley Forge National Park and several cycling/walking trails. We also had a nice evening in Phoenixville, about 30 minutes away (home of the Colonial Theater, also featured in the 1958 version of the Blob). The apartment is nicely appointed, with a sitting room and dining area, kitchen, bedroom, and full bath with washer and dryer. We had several meals in the apartment and all necessary dishware etc. was provided. Our hosts were very gracious and quickly responded to all notes. Overall the stay was great, the place is great, and we had a great time there.

It's a lovely property tucked away on the Brandywine Creek; we watched herons and a family of geese; visited the Brandywine Museum and Jenkins Arboretum during a brief stay for a bridal shower. Would love to go back!

Awesome property! Had a great time and got in some much needed relaxation.

This little hideaway was everything it promised and more. I will stay there again and again. You couldn't find more helpful and attentive owners anywhere. 10 stars out of 5!

I had friends come to town to visit, and was looking for a fun place for them to stay in the Borough. This was perfect! They really loved the spot and we had a nice cozy place for some quality girls weekend time. The hosts were incredibly communicative and made the whole process simple and easy. Now my son wants to have his own sleepover there in the future, because he was jealous of the great location on the water :-)

Beautiful location, feels very private but a few minutes away every store & restaurant is there.

Excellent

This little slice of perfection could have been a teeny tiny bit of a chore to find, but with the crystal clear communication of Michele and Mark, it was a breeze! Cute, clean and complete describe this little house on the brandywine. We enjoyed cooking, hanging on the deck overlooking the river, as well as all that downingtown had to offer. Next time i will be bringing my fly rod!

While the pictures for this listing do the property justice, we believe that feel of peacefulness cannot be captured on film. We came because of a wedding in the area, but we plan to came back and explore. Highly recommend !
