The
Whistling Swan Inn, a Stanhope New Jersey Bed and Breakfast
Nestled in the beautiful
Skylands region of New Jersey, the house now known
as the Whistling Swan Inn was built in 1905 by the Justice of Peace, Daniel
Best for his wife, Sarah. After passing through six families, this wonderful old house was restored to its turn-of-the century Victorian
splendor and converted to a Bed and Breakfast in 1985.
We have kept the flavor of a vintage family home from a friendly welcome and
refreshments at arrival to a sumptuous breakfast in our dining room or on
our pillared porch.
Whatever the season, a myriad of activities awaits you in
the Skylands…New Jersey’s best kept getaway secret!
Stroll in our Victorian garden or just relax on the veranda, reading the
morning paper. Spend the afternoon enjoying the highlights of the Skylands
region; Waterloo Village, Lake
Hopatcong, Chester crafts, antiquing,
horseback riding, hiking and biking in the State parks. After a busy day
enjoy a quiet time … swing on the porch swing, take a nap in the side-yard
hammock, or sit in our parlor and enjoy pleasant conversations with new-found friends.
Later, enjoy fine dining at one of the Skylands gourmet restaurants, some
within walking distance of the Inn.
Highlight your evening at a local
entertainment spot or simply take a stroll and enjoy the quiet. Once the
evening is over, snuggle up with your special someone and enjoy a glass of
sherry and homemade cookies next to a crackling fire in our cozy guest
parlor. When ready to retire, sink into your queen sized featherbed and fall
asleep to a movie from our video library.
Take back special memories of the old-fashioned
charm of our village in the mountains.
