Neighbourhood

Description of our neighbourhood and surrounding area

Princeton is a lovely, lively town with a great university and beautiful campus. It is located halfway between New York City and Philadelphia, both of which are easily accessible by train, bus, or car in 1 to 1 1/2 hours. Our house is on a quiet, friendly residential street, a short walk to the university, theaters, parks, historic sites, and downtown Princeton with its many shops and restaurants. A natural food store, a coffee house, and several restaurants are within a 5-minute walk. Princeton University's football stadium and other sports venues are nearby. We are 3/4 mile from Carnegie Lake, where Olympic rowers train, and the D & R Canal--a 50- mile linear park, great for biking, birding, walking, jogging, and canoeing. McCarter Theater, a 20-minute walk, has outstanding programs with theater, dance, jazz, cabaret, and world music. Princeton University offers concerts, lectures, readings, movies, an art museum and sporting events, often free and open to the public.

Our home exchange - places to go and things to do while staying in our home

Princeton is a wonderful town with a variety of activities, some of which are described further in the web sites below. It also is a great base for exploring the eastern United States, not only New York City and Philadelphia, but the world-renowned Jersey shore and the charming towns and villages along the scenic Delaware River. Farther afield are Washington, DC, New York's Adirondack mountains, and New England.
