My family and I had a fantastic stay at the barn over Thanksgiving 2012. The owners were the perfect hosts; they were incredibly welcoming and provided us with fantastic information on local attractions and foodie places (of which there are many) without ever intruding on our privacy. Our toddler loved Freddie the donkey and also met Paddy the potbelly pig who was a huge hit.

The barn itself has oodles of character and charm and is incredibly homely. It was immaculately clean when we arrived. We loved cooking lunch in the large well-equipped kitchen and stoking up the wood burners in the kitchen and living room.

The land the barn sits on is extensive and there are some lovely walks right from your door, which our dog adored. The owners even lent us a great off road stroller whilst we were there.

All in all a truly lovely property that we hope to return to.

My husband and I were looking for a getaway where we could relax, catch up on reading, entertain friends, shop at farmers’ markets and lounge by a pool. We found all that and much more at this property, which is exactly as pictured on VRBO.

What makes this place most spectacular are the owners, two special people whose love of the environment and the animals who share the property with them will permeate every moment of your stay. They are masters at hosting with a light touch. They were around whenever we needed something or for a little chit-chat while we breakfasted under the covered porch. At the same time, they respected our privacy and gave us the feeling that we had free run of the property.

The place is lush, homey and comfortable, and we loved that nothing was off-limits to our French Bulldog, who enjoyed his break from the city as much as we did. The place is fully stocked, and we left a few items for the next guests in the same spirit as we found a pantry with some starter items for us.

We are already looking at our calendars to find a time to return.

We rented the Budd Barn for the month of April and cannot recommend it highly enough!!! Absolutely stunning in every way! It was so great to find such a beautiful property and setting where our two Golden Retrievers were also welcomed. They loved it as much as we did! Boyce and Karen go out of their way to make you feel like an honored house guest rather than a tenant. The Barn has anything and everything you need...and then some. Fred & Fiona (the donkeys), Mary (the sheep), Patty (the Pig), Bridget (their beautiful lab) all welcomed us as part of the family. So much to see and do in the area. Don't miss riding down the River Road on the Pennsylvania side down to New Hope and then cross the bridge into Lambertville, NJ and back up the River Road to Frenchtown! They are all charming and offer hours of exploring. Ate a few times at Buck's Bounty which is a couple of minutes drive from the farm and were very pleased. It's just a magical place and I'm already trying to figure out when we can go back again! If you are visiting this area, you will not find a more perfect place to stay or more accommodating people than the Budd's!
Thank you from the bottom of our hearts for your hospitality!

We stayed at The Barn for ten days surrounding Christmas and found it warmly decorated for the holidays with wreaths and greens, white lights, and a beautiful Moravian star! The long dining room table was so pretty with Christmas candles, pine cones, and more greens in a huge wooden bowl. My husband and I lived on the NJ side of the Delaware several years ago and enjoyed being able to entertain some old friends, as well as hosting our kids from NJ and MD at different times. Our two dogs had a ball, of course! We agree with all the past reviews in every way, and add our thanks to Karen and Budd and their friendly pets for making our stay such a pleasure!

My husband and I rented the Budd Barn last weekend for a special dinner party. For 35 years, our group of friends have been getting together for a Christmas dinner. Each couple or individual serves as the host for the event every five years, and this year, it was our turn. We decided that we would rent the Budd Barn because most of our friends live in Pennsylvania. Words just cannot possibly describe how wonderful it was to host the dinner at the barn house! Karen was extremely helpful in telling us what was available in the barn house kitchen so that we would know what we would need to bring, and when we arrived, the table was already decorated! She patiently walked us around the house, explaining how to use the wood stoves, and showing us where everything was located. She even introduced us to the farm animals! She recommended a local butcher whom we used to purchase a filet for the main course. By the time the evening of the dinner arrived, we had the fire pit going as well as the wood stoves, and our friends were thrilled with the venue we had chosen. It was truly an amazing evening, one that all of us will remember forever! Now, we just need to plan a return trip in the summer so that we can enjoy the pool. Thank you so much, Karen and Boyce, for a wonderful, wonderful stay!

My husband, two dogs and I stayed at the Budd farm for a week in Sept. We enjoyed our time there so much. We daily took the dogs for walks by the canal or on the property, the pool was lovely to sit by and/or swim, we played tennis, which neither of us were good at. We had more fun watching our dogs chase the balls. We either cooked in the kitchen there, or ate in nearby Frenchtown. The Budds are friendly and helpful. We look forward to returning soon!

We stayed at the Budd farm for a long weekend in mid-October for our anniversary, and couldn't have been happier with our choice (my husband had found it a couple of years ago as a possible honeymoon option, and in retrospect, we would have been happy with it). If you like relaxed accommodations in a gorgeous setting, this is a terrific option. The renovated barn is nice without being fussy. It looks out onto 80 acres of gorgeous fields and woods that are perfect for walking--we did an hour's hike every morning on the Budd property alone, with great trails that they created themselves. The weather was perfect--high sixties during the day. I'd love to stay during to summer to be able to use the pool, but I'm sure the barn gets a bit warm. We had friends come and stay with us, and their 9 year old daughter was excited to sleep in the loft bed that's open to the outside--she loved it! We enjoyed the antics of Fiona and Freddie, the donkeys, and were happy to help keep an eye on Patty the potbellied pig, who enjoyed letting herself out of the gate so she could dig for grubs behind the pool. Our dog loved it too, and we were thankful for the setup because he has a hard time climbing stairs, and he could avoid them by going outside and around from the kitchen area to the living and sleeping area above. The Budds were charming and lovely--a true blessing when you are staying in someone's backyard. Frenchtown is close by and has good food and lovely people. Would stay there again in a heartbeat.

The Budd farm is wonderful! My husband and I stayed here for 6 days before and after our wedding in Bucks County. We really wanted to be able to bring our two huskies with us and the Budd farm was the only place we found that was in line with what we were looking for and was pet friendly. The property and surrounding area is beautiful. It was especially fun to interact with the farm animals. We got a kick out of the fire pit and made S'Mores each night. Boyce and Karen were extremely helpful in answering many of my questions leading up to our visit and even let us borrow their mountain bikes to go biking in the nearby Nockamixon State Park.
