Stay at The Burr House for its' Centennial

Sleep in a piece of Princeton's history 


Downtown, in Princeton's most walkable neighbourhood, high on 1st St. situated amongst other points of interest like St Paul's Church, The Law Court (now Town Hall), the Firehall, Livery and Museum. Look out your front windows at Princeton's original Gothic Bell Tower and just behind that stands the Burr Family Barn.

 

Built 100 years ago, though quaint, it's a gorgeous home, crafted with hardwood floors, stained glass, a clawfoot tub, and period finishings. 


And definitely not haunted.
