My now husband & I had our wedding at the end of August 2024 & we chose The Boathouse as our…read morereception venue. We could not have been happier. Sonya was an absolute pleasure to work with. She was friendly, professional, straightforward & answered all questions I had whether it was via text, email or phone call. Sonya was on top of all the details & made sure everything ran smoothly. The Maitre'd, WOW. She ran a smooth ship. She was right there if you needed her. Her attention to detail & customer service was fantastic. You could tell she wanted everyone to have a good time. You wouldn't have guessed there was an issue as she was right there to make sure things ran seamlessly. The rest of the staff of the boathouse from bartenders, to servers, chef, etc was fantastic! They made our day special & I cannot thank them enough! Everyone raved at how good the food was & that they enjoyed cocktail hour on the deck overlooking the lake. I believe Jennifer was our server who took care of my husband & I, making sure we had food in our bridal suite, tidying things up, that our drinks were always filled & just really wanting to make sure we were comfortable & taken care of throughout the evening. The boathouse met our needs & was perfect for us. I highly recommend!

There was information about some Stockton family members who lived there but would have liked to have more broad information. The house is quite beautiful and the garden is very nice. I did enjoy the visit but the cream tea was really the best.

It's right next to Princeton's campus and the Battle of Trenton Memorial. My husband is a big fan of all the Signers of the Declaration, and unlike a more restored house about the people who owned the house, it focuses on the Stockton family who lived here and the American Revolution and a special exhibit. We were actually here for a few hours since there's a lot of signs to read and a lot of Richard Stocktons who lived in the house, followed by some governors. When I went, there was also a really interesting exhibit on Ma Bell and the history of telecommunications upstairs. This was a great historical site, a cheap price, and a nice space. Would love to come back when the garden is in bloom, and I will look out for future exhibitions as they rotate in.

From the moment we arrived, everything was easy and welcoming…read more Parking was simple, the property is absolutely beautiful, and you can tell how much care goes into maintaining it. Everything was clean, organized, and family-friendly (including the bathrooms, which as parents we definitely appreciate!). The owners and staff were incredibly friendly, helpful, and genuinely seemed to love what they do. Our kids had an absolute blast picking fresh strawberries, meeting the animals, and riding on the tractor, which ended up being one of the highlights of the day! The market was another pleasant surprise, full of fun snacks, treats, and unique items to browse. This place offers so much more than just fruit picking. It really feels like a full family experience. We'll definitely be back and would highly recommend it to any family looking for a fun, well-run day outdoors!

My one-year-old got charged for an adult ticket without asking me how old he was at the entry. Longer than usual hayride without staff to explain to you what is going on. We ended up circling that strawberry fields; we were excited to pick strawberries but there wasn't much to pick. They were so small and majority was sour. Maybe we got our hopes up. The English peas picking part was more than the strawberries, but when we got home to cook them, they were so high in fiber that you can barely chew it to shallow them. We ended up throwing it all away. Maybe we went on a bad weekend; try another place next time.

From sitting rooms to the library, there are books and fireplaces all around! The chef was incredible! Every meal was better than the last. The other staff on site provided nature walks and helped us with whatever we needed! The grounds were beautiful with tons of history! There are farm animals, a homeschooling program on site but no matter what it was nice to walk around. It was a great experience and a place I'll remember for another event!

I attended a wedding here recently. The grounds were beautiful but beyond that it was not very…read moregood. Cocktail hour consisted of appetizers being served by staff walking around. Many of them you could buy in Costco. Cauliflower mac&cheese. The alcohol is provided by the bride and groom, so you can't fault the venue if they couldn't make a specialty drink for you. They are responsible for keeping the beer cold though, and they couldn't even do that. I had the very small 3 oz fillet for my dinner and it was completely overdone. No pink at all! I asked if they could bring me another one out. They said there are no extras and that they do not serve made to order steak. Really?? Who screws fillets up? It rained so they closed the tent up. It was like being in a sauna. All the young men took their ties off and unbuttoned their shirts. How do you not have AC?? At the end of the evening when the 2 bartenders were trying to keep up with making drinks and getting the beer on ice, I overheard the one say that this group is brutal. It's ok to think that but you should probably keep your thoughts to yourself so guests don't hear you. They actually closed the bar up early.

You have to pay just to enter the farm, and then still pay for anything you want to purchase, which made it feel a little overpriced for the experience. That said, the shop itself is really cute and has some lovely lavender-themed items. Nice to stop by once, but not something I'd personally rush back to for the price.

The venue itself was beautiful, but unfortunately the owner was extremely rude to me and my family…read more The entire experience felt unnecessarily difficult--from trying to get in early to the cleanup process. We were even required to take all of our own trash. Overall, I would not recommend this place. It was disappointing, especially since the owner's daughter, who helps run things, was very kind and professional.

Everything turned out beautiful, from the floral arch design at our alter to the table center pieces and everything in between. We chose a somewhat un-traditional location for our day and they took a blank canvas of a space and transformed it into an amazing venue. They were extremely easy to work with right from the start and accommodated all of our wishes and requests without hesitation. We had complete confidence in the team and they far exceeded our expectations. They day simply would not have been the same if Janet Makrancy and her team was not involved and I would highly recommend them for any wedding or event that you are planning

They do a wine tasting and also offer wine flights of 3, 4, or 5 different wines. The traminette was sweet and refreshing and one of my favorites. I also tried the riesling which was not as sweet as some rieslings are but also not super tart. The sunrise blush was also nice. Finally, the berry and mango peach sangria were both delicious and perfect for a hot day. There are some limited food and snack options - there's a deli food truck out back. Most people brought their own snacks.

It was dark and winter but I'd imagine in the summer it's a beautiful view of the vineyard. The staff are so friendly and helpful. They offered samples before we picked wines to taste, offered to take photos of us. The workshop was fun and unique. The wines, delicious. Blueberry was a favorite. Parking lot is large, you get a discount if you pay with cash. Clean, and nicely decorated winery. They had a cute store with nice Christmas baskets and decor. They let us bring our own snacks, cheese tray and water bottles (I read in previous reviews they weren't allowed outside drinks but no one said anything about our water bottles). They had live music (it was a Friday night). Everything was a decent price, even the art night ($35 where other places charge $45 and up) I definitely recommend and I'll be back soon.

We opted for the $20 drink package for unlimited Mimosas and Bloody Mary's which was a tremendous deal. Rob was attentive to every detail, as always. I think I ate the entire ocean at the raw bar, from shrimp and crabs to claims and oysters. I had 3 helpings. And most importantly, the mothers (my wife and mother) thoroughly enjoyed themselves. Stone Terrace had a "build your own bouquet" station, live music, as well as areas for photos. We will definitely be back for Mother's Day next year.

Came here with my wife for a special dinner and we really enjoyed ourselves!…read more First, the grounds look super nice - I understand that it's also a wedding venue, and I definitely got that vibe. We followed the signs to find the restaurant and there was plenty of parking right outside. We were seated immediately and I loved the dim lighting in the restaurant, although it was maybe a little strange that there were football games playing on two big screen TVs. I was looking for a more romantic setting for our date night, but it wasn't a huge deal. Our server, Will, did a great job throughout. The table bread was very light and airy, and the olive oil served with it was pretty decent tasting. I got the crab cakes for myself, while my wife got the grouper. The food was prepared reasonably quickly, and it was very tasty! In hindsight, I wish I would have gotten different sides (maybe mashed potatoes versus roasted potatoes, and a different veggie instead of green beans), but that's on me :) The menu online didn't have any prices when I looked, so I can inform you guys that the crab cakes were around $35 and the grouper was something like $30. We ended up finishing with the tiramisu, which was also quite tasty and good for sharing! Also, the wine and beer list was OK - I ended up getting some not-so-great pinot noir by the glass, but nothing too offensive. It did look like they had a pretty well stocked bar, so if you're into cocktails, they could probably make you something interesting. Overall, the food was very good, and I would definitely come back here.
