CLOSED-Riverstone 1730 Luxury Riverfront B&B

Preparing to write a review, I scanned to see how others and described their stay at Riverstone 1730. The words “elegant, warm, historic, friendly, welcoming, charming”, etc, etc have already been used to convey the experience, and I can only agree. It is the Hollywood vision of Colonial American life - with indoor plumbing and no livestock underfoot. Classic architecture and construction, lovingly and meticulously updated for comfort while maintaining the charm and romance of the 1700’s. While the bedrooms are colonial, the mattresses (let’s be honest - you don’t want to ‘sleep tight’ on a rope frame and hay mattress) are outstandingly comfortable and covered with a thick quilt you’ll have one of your best sleeps ever. The bathroom boasts a soaking tub and large shower and plenty of hot w

If there were a way to give Riverstone more than five stars, I would! My husband and I were lucky enough to have our wedding here and hosted a small dinner for our family. Ken and Heather went above and beyond as our hosts, and always made sure that we were taking care of no matter what. The view of the river is beautiful, the grounds are impeccable, the garden is perfect, and the house is historical yet cozy at the same time.

Riverstone 1730 is a beautiful, historic home with incredible views of the Delaware River which is located right across the street. Heather and Ken, who are fantastic hosts, have done a wonderful job with keeping the authenticity of the house while including modern conveniences. They have paid attention to every detail and their love for the place is evident and authentic. The downstairs is large and spacious with a well-equipped kitchen, a nice dining area, a front sitting room, and a living room with a tv. The upstairs has beautifully decorated bedrooms and a bathroom with an amazing bathtub! I enjoyed walking along the canal trail and crossing the Delaware River into New Jersey! What a neat historic place that Heather and Ken have opened up for guests to enjoy. Thanks for the great st

If you are looking at this review thinking if you should book at stay at Riverstone, YOU SHOULD. Ken and Heather are an incredibly warm, knowledgeable, responsive and fun loving pair of hosts that everyone would want as their friends. The house is stunning an everything is so well looked after and organized, it is run impeccably. We went in the summer and were fortunate enough to spend a lot of time on the dock, in the river, on the bikes and by the fire. This is a VERY special place, and my only complaint is I had to leave. Absolutely dreamy experience and Riverstone has not seen the last of me!

Wonderful stay. The house is the perfect mix of very charming / very old plus modern amenities. There is heat throughout the house that actually works! In a 300 year old house! Thanks to the owners for installing new windows and a nest heating system that responds instantly. The house is furnished with beautiful antiques and little touches that make it really special. And although we're 90 minutes away, I had no idea that there was a whole string of charming river towns on the banks of the Delaware River. I had been to New Hope, but there are several more to explore. The house is clearly a labor of love for Ken and Heather.
