Frenchtown is a charming, quaint little town nestled along the Delaware River in Hunterdon County, New Jersey. It was once a favorite stop-over for people traveling by horse and carriage, or by riverboat, between New York City and Philadelphia (about 90 minutes today, by car, from each city.) This small river town is at the convergence of two creeks, surrounded by sheer rock cliffs and the rolling hills of Delaware Valley. The population is about 1,545 people, which incidentally, is about the same as it was 100 years ago. Frenchtown has been a commercial center for the area since the late 1700s, called "a tiny village with a New York or Philadelphia cosmopolitan style." It's home to many art galleries and working artists' studios, antique shops, unique clothing boutiques and other eclectic shops, intimate little cafes, coffee shops and fine restaurants. The town also has many fine historical structures, including classic old inns from the 1800s, and the old railroad station, which now houses a café. The well-known River Bridge at Frenchtown crosses the Delaware into Uhlerstown and Tinicum in Bucks County, Pennsylvania. Due to its' unique and beautiful location, Frenchtown has also become a popular recreational destination, offering hiking, biking and fishing, boating, canoeing, kayaking and tubing on the river and creeks in the area.
