Thank you for your interest in the Shepard House!

We are a non-smoking Bed and Breakfast Country Inn in scenic Delaware Water Gap, Pennsylvania near the Pocono's . We like to think of ourselves as "country victorian" - cozy, yet elegant and romantic. In our bed and breakfast guest rooms you will find beautiful antiques and lace curtains, and each room is unique with its own special touches. Relax on our wrap-around veranda, comfortably furnished with rockers, flowering plants, and a romantic old fashioned wicker porch swing.

Our bed and breakfast and Delaware Water Gap lodging is one street away from the Appalachian Trail and minutes from the Delaware River and the Delaware Water Gap National Recreation Area. The Crossings Outlet Center, flea markets, wineries, many outdoor activities including: hiking, fishing, canoeing, biking, rafting, golfing and horseback riding. Antiquing and a historic touring trolley are only minutes away. We're proud of our local museum and enjoy a yearly jazz festival in September, along with the mountains, skiing and snow sports in the winter.

Of course you can always just relax on the veranda and enjoy the breeze from the mountains and the clear Pocono Mountain skies. Perhaps you'll catch a glimpse of a hummingbird flitting between the hanging plants, or see a deer crossing the road.
