Nestled in the beautiful Skylands region of New Jersey, the house now known as the Whistling Swan Inn was built in 1905 by the Justice of Peace, Daniel Best for his wife, Sarah. After passing through six families, this wonderful old house was restored to its turn-of-the century Victorian splendor and converted to a Bed and Breakfast in 1985. We have kept the flavor of a vintage family home from a friendly welcome and refreshments at arrival to a sumptuous breakfast in our dining room or on our pillared porch. Stroll in our Victorian garden or just relax on the veranda, reading the morning paper. Spend the afternoon enjoying the highlights of the Skylands region; Waterloo Village, Lake Hopatcong, Chester crafts, antiquing, horseback riding, hiking and biking in the State parks. After a busy day enjoy a quiet time . swing on the porch swing, take a nap in the side-yard hammock, or sit in our parlor and enjoy pleasant conversations with new-found friends.
