Let’s be honest—summer is amazing, but sometimes it gets a little too warm for comfort. Whether you are escaping city heat or just need a break from the buzz of summer schedules, Chimney Hill Estate is ready to help you stay cool, calm, and completely refreshed.
Here are three of our favorite ways to beat the heat while enjoying everything our property has to offer.
1. Take a Cold Plunge
This is not your average dip. Our signature cold plunge is part of our Fire and Ice Experience—a carefully designed wellness session that includes a deep heat sauna followed by a full-body plunge into refreshing, crystal-clear cold water.
According to the Red Cross, staying cool in hot weather is about more than just fans and frozen drinks. It is about regulating your body temperature in ways that are both safe and effective. A cold plunge provides that shock of relief while also boosting circulation and lifting your mood.
And let’s be real—there is something seriously satisfying about stepping out of icy water into the warm July air with a clear mind and an energized body.
2. Lounge Under the Trees with a Cold Drink
Sometimes the best way to enjoy summer is to slow it all the way down. Our estate is full of natural shade, quiet corners, and scenic spots that stay cool even in the middle of the day. Bring a book, pour a cold drink, and settle into one of our shaded porches or garden chairs.
Even on the hottest days, a little breeze and a lot of quiet go a long way. Ready.gov recommends limiting direct sunlight, especially during midday, and staying hydrated throughout the day. We make it easy to follow those tips without sacrificing any of the experience.
If you are staying in one of our accommodations, you will find that each room offers comfort, style, and air conditioning to keep things comfortable around the clock.
3. Explore in the Morning, Retreat in the Afternoon
Lambertville and New Hope offer some of the region’s most charming downtown strolls, river walks, and art galleries. We always suggest exploring in the morning when the sun is still soft and the streets are calm. After lunch, come back to Chimney Hill to unwind while the rest of the world heats up.
You can relax indoors, enjoy a nap, or try one of our wellness options without ever breaking a sweat. It is the best of both worlds—just the way July should feel.
Make This Summer a Cool One
You do not have to suffer through the heat or hide inside. At Chimney Hill, you can enjoy everything summer has to offer while staying cool and collected. Whether you are diving into a cold plunge, relaxing in the shade, or stepping into a peaceful suite, we have created a place where summer feels light, fresh, and exactly the way it should.
