This NJ Airbnb getaway feels like the ocean but won’t make you seasick

LAMBERTVILLE — If you’re looking for a nice, quiet fall getaway, check out “The Lambertville Wave”, an iconic mid-century modern Airbnb.

The house, which if you look at it, looks like a wave, hence the name “The Wave”.

It sits on a secluded wooded site just 2.5 miles from historic Lambertville, a popular tourist attraction. New Hope, Pennsylvania is just across the Delaware River. Be sure to visit Washington Crossing Park and Goat Hill Overlook.

The nearby D&R Canal towpath provides an opportunity for outdoor recreation should you decide to venture off the 10-acre site.

The Wave, which books at $465 per night, sleeps six people in three bedrooms, depending on the Airbnb website.

There is one queen bed each in bedrooms one and two. In the third bedroom there are two single beds. There are also two bathrooms.

Upon entering this unusually shaped home, the most striking feature seems to be the ceiling plan. The opening of the living/dining/games room and the kitchen allows guests to share a very unique experience.

All rooms in the house are accessible to travelers. The guest limit is six, day, evening and night. If guests wish to host gatherings of more than six people, please inquire about pricing.

The Wave, which has been featured in The New York Times and Conde Nast Traveler, sits on a private wooded lot with tons of lawn. There are no window coverings.
