Family Affair in Philly Suburbs - Free Parking

Delaware County, United States

Guest rating: 4.3 / 5

Overview

This vacation home in Clifton Heights, in the Philadelphia-area Delaware County suburbs, offers a peaceful, residential setting for family and small group stays. It's a 3-bedroom property with a game room and a jacuzzi-style bath tub, designed to keep an entire family entertained during a stay in the Philly delco suburbs. The home is smoke-free and set up with a quiet, neighborhood feel that reviewers specifically noted.

Amenities & Recreation

The unit includes a full kitchen with oven/stove and microwave, air conditioning and heating, cable TV, free Wi-Fi, and an ironing board for longer stays. A patio and outdoor space are available, along with a fire pit guests can use if they bring their own firewood, and there's a game room noted by past guests as a highlight for extended family gatherings. Free off-street driveway parking is available, with additional free street parking for other vehicles.

Practical Notes

Guests should note the home has one bathroom located upstairs, and the staircase has a noticeable bend at the bottom that some guests have found tricky, particularly for elderly travelers. Outdoor furniture may need to be wiped down of tree debris before use. Fire station sirens may occasionally be heard in the distance during a stay.

Location & Surroundings

The property sits close to several bus stops (Oak Ln & Cambridge Rd just 34m away, plus two more within a few hundred meters) and the Primos train station is about 551m away, making car-free trips into the city feasible. Dining options are abundant nearby, including The Crab House, Silvia's Kitchen, Niko's Steaks, Sam's Deli & Grill, Delco Diner, and a nearby Wawa for quick stops. Philadelphia International Airport is roughly 8km away, and the wider area gives access to Reading Terminal Market, King of Prussia Mall, Philadelphia Zoo, Adventure Aquarium, Citizens Bank Park, and Wells Fargo Center.

Best for

This home suits extended families and small groups traveling together, thanks to its 3 bedrooms, game room, and jacuzzi-style tub, plus free off-street and street parking for multiple vehicles. It also works well for small groups of traveling business partners who want more space and a kitchen than a standard hotel room offers, while still being a short drive from restaurants and area attractions.

Travel tips

Take advantage of the multiple nearby bus stops (some just steps away) and the Primos train station about 551m away for getting around without a car. Keep in mind the property has only one bathroom, located upstairs, and a stairway with a noticeable bend, so plan accordingly for larger groups or guests with mobility concerns. Pick up firewood at a local grocery or hardware store in advance if you plan to use the fire pit, and expect to hear occasional distant fire station sirens.

What guests say

Guests consistently praised the home's cleanliness and easy-to-navigate layout, along with the quiet, residential neighborhood setting, saying they would gladly stay again. The kitchen, living room, and game room were called out as particular highlights for extended family gatherings. On the downside, one review flagged the single upstairs bathroom and a sharply bent staircase as inconvenient, especially for older family members.
