Our historic property and casual conference center makes a great rental for groups.
In 1677, the City of Burlington was founded by Quakers and served as the capital of West Jersey until 1702 and the county seat until 1796. Click here to read more about Burlington.

Schedule
Stay for one or more nights. Rise, eat and sleep when you want. No one will be vacuuming under your feet.
Privacy
Bring your stuff and close the door. Then communicate and collaborate without interruption until the wee hours. No need to pack up your materials overnight. You’ll have the place to yourself.
Dormitory
There is a 2-floor, 7-room, 88-bed dormitory. Separate the “loud breathers” from the not, the early risers from those who sleep in, one family from another, the men from the women, the kids from the parents, or the boys from the girls. Arrange it your way.
Beds
True twin mattresses. Bring your own sheets, pillows, blankets, towels, toiletries and perhaps a bathrobe. There’s no pillow more comfortable than your own.
Food
Hire any caterer, cook, chef, family member, or friend you want, order in, or go potluck. Make dining a hands-free, diet-specific top-notch, cultural, or crowd-sourced delight.
Dishes
Use our Corning Pyroceram dinnerware and commercial dishwasher (wash a load in just 53 seconds). Reduce your expenses.
Go Green
Arrive by RiverLINE train or bicycle, use the white boards, meet outside, crack a window, take the stairs, play ping pong, use our dishes, refill your water bottles, and recycle.
Base/Replace Camp
Make here your base of operations for day trips to points in south Jersey. Rain- and mosquito-proof.
Price
Call or email for updated prices (for valuation purposes as rented to groups only). Lunch at a chain restaurant costs more than a night here!
