“Boat House is a great and comfortable place. The location is great near the river, and there were some nice walks around the area to explore, which was nice with the snow. The bed was comfortable, the heaters work great, and there were supplies...”

“Todo estaba excelente, los anfitriones de la casa hacen muy buen trabajo en tener lo mejor, Si nos dieran a elegir que cambiar solo sería la cama.. 😊 Ya necesita un cambio, pero de ahí en fuera muy buena elección, muy limpia y buena ubicación.”

This one-of-a-kind home sits only steps away from Brandywine Creek. Boat House on the Brandywine's stone walls dates back to the 1800s. There is even a door that connects to a tunnel from Downingtown Manor, that was used as an Underground Railroad. Need a larger space? Downingtown Manor can be found at 109 Manor and sleeps 10. Both locations are conveniently located close to several Chester County attractions as well as both Philadelphia and Lancaster. Downingtown Manor rents separately Boat House on the Brandywine is located within minutes of restaurants, grocery and convenience stores, parks, walking trails, venues, golf courses, and more, there is plenty to discover in the heart of Downingtown to make your stay even more memorable.
Hi, we are Mark and Michele Myers and we have been together in Downingtown over 25 years. We raised two beautiful daughters here, have 5 fantastic grandchildren and Mark is part of 5 generations of this town. When these iconic homes became available we simply couldn't resist and hope you love them as much as we do!
