Germantown Homestay

Germantown, in northwestern Philadelphia, has convenience and charm. Built in 1888, our home has archtectural interest. You will find that commuter trains or highways will whisk you downtown in 25 minutes, but you are only a few blocks from the world's largest urban park for hiking, biking, or horseback riding. Many homes date from pre-Revolutionary times through the Victorian era. You will find some tourist activities in Germantown as well as many historic and cultural sites downtown.
