From the Penthouse, almost everything is within a two-minute walk. The restaurants below are the best of what Narrowsburg has to offer — all within easy reach.

Right on the River

The classic
Narrowsburg day trip.

Lander's River Trips has been launching rafts, canoes, kayaks, and tubes onto the Delaware River for decades — a Narrowsburg institution. Five launch and landing points along the river let you pick your own level of adventure: a 2.5-hour float, a full 5-hour ride, or an overnight camping trip at Skinners Falls.

First-time river-goers, families with kids, and experienced paddlers alike. Rafts hold 4 to 6 people — ideal for groups. The Delaware here is a leisurely scenic float, not whitewater — gorgeous scenery suitable for all ages.

Book ahead in summer — weekends fill up fast.
