What our guests have to say ...

​
"What a magical stay we had. My girlfriend I decided to spend the weekend in New Hope and booked what turned out to be the coziest, warmest, most romantic weekend we could have ever wished for. Scott and Michael were incredible hosts. The room and place was charming, beautiful, and perfect. A 20 minute walk from new-hope proper, it's a beautiful stroll along streams and coal-engined train tracks into town. Breakfasts were wonderful with chocolate-chip pancakes, eggs, bacon, and fresh coffee were just some of the things on the menu. The fireplace was truly incredible too. Could not reccommend this place enough and can't wait to come back."

About The Wishing Well
Originally built as a farmhouse in the mid-1800s, expansions through the decades turned this the sturdy and quaint stone building into its present-day size. You'll find that the house and property have a lot of character. There are six guest rooms, two fireplaces, wooden floors, ceiling beams, antique furniture, a cozy dining area, and original stone walls.
The well behind the house was once the source of water and is now the namesake for our guesthouse. We encourage you to share photos of yourself with it and share them on social media during your stay. And join our backyard companions while you're there. Cardinals, bluejays, finches, woodpeckers, and many other varieties of birds, as well as rabbits, squirrel and deer all call our back acre their home.
Wander down the stairs and follow the path as you enjoy the woods, wildlife and serenity on your way to Aquatong Creek and our private woodlands gazebo. As you descend, you are spiritually transported into the solitude of nature at it's scenic best. In contrast to city life, you'll find that our rural getaway a beacon of tranquility!
