Plan a Warren County visit around the Morris Canal, Port Warren Park, Inclined Plane 9 West, historic Stewartsville, Kennedy House & Mill, local dining and convenient access to Phillipsburg, Easton and the Lehigh Valley.
Visitor character: Greenwich is well suited to a history-and-recreation day trip, with the Morris Canal, preserved parkland and historic Stewartsville as the strongest local attractions. Overnight inventory inside the township is limited, while the Phillipsburg–Easton area offers a much broader lodging selection.
Greenwich Township Community Day — Saturday, October 3, 2026 · 1:00–5:00 p.m.
The current Township calendar lists Community Day on October 3. Event details can change, so confirm the municipal calendar before making a special trip.
Jim & Mary Lee Museum status: Warren County currently lists the museum at Port Warren Park / Inclined Plane 9 West as temporarily closed. The historic park and trail area remain the focus of the visit; check Warren County before traveling specifically for museum access.
Stewartsville address note: Many Greenwich Township attractions and businesses use a Stewartsville mailing address. Stewartsville and Upper Stewartsville are communities within Greenwich Township, not separate municipalities.

Campgrounds
No public campground is currently confirmed within Greenwich Township. Port Warren Park is a day-use historic and recreation area, not an overnight campground.
Regional camping: Warren County's current hiking guidance points overnight trail users toward designated state-park campgrounds such as Jenny Jump State Forest and Stephens State Park rather than county greenway sites. Confirm campground seasons, reservations and site availability with New Jersey State Parks.
Canal boats were raised roughly 100 feet at Plane 9 West. The site preserves major archaeological evidence of the canal's water-powered inclined-plane system.

Jim & Mary Lee MuseumPlane Tender's House
The museum interprets Morris Canal history but is currently listed by Warren County as temporarily closed.
Why Port Warren mattered: A small settlement grew at the bottom of Plane 9 West as canal boats waited to cross the incline. Historic county material identifies a store, tavern, blacksmith shop, mule barn, lime kiln, bridge, houses and farms associated with the canal community.
Greenwich is one of Warren County's oldest communities. The area combines Revolutionary-era associations, historic churches and cemeteries, early mills, Stewartsville's road-and-canal crossroads and later rail transportation.
