The community itself is a picturesque small town from another time that sits at the intersection of the Delaware River and the original Chesapeake and Delaware Canal. It's easy to imagine the barges and steamers that transported passengers and goods between Baltimore and Philadelphia in the 1800's. The city boasts a lively downtown area with a scenic waterfront park, restaurants, stores, and craft shops. A paved bike and hiking trail reaches all the way from downtown, across Delaware, to Chesapeake City, Maryland. Bikers and pedestrians from the region flock here in the summer. You can kayak or boat in to the municipal dock right on the main street and enjoy waterfront shopping and dining. The town is 3 miles off Delaware Route 1, within 30 minutes of all employment centers in New Castle County and is only 45 minutes from Philly International Airport and an hour and twenty minutes to the Delaware beaches.
