Great stay, great location

We needed a place to call home base while exploring Jim Thorpe and the Lehigh River Gorge. We also needed someplace quiet to work, just in case. This was a great choice for both. Walkable into town, or just a super short ride. Comfortable and all the needs for two people. Close to the rail trail, could walk the short-ish walk into Jim Thorpe town, either via the street or the rail trail. Close to hiking (we did bald mountain) and biking paths. We explored wineries and breweries and the many delish recommendation from our host. Dee and Mark were wonderful hosts. Can’t wait to return and explore more.

Perfect

Multiple reasons why someone should choose here to stay. -Jim Thorpe is a very popular place which means day visitors come from everywhere and there isnt any parking anywhere. The location of this stay was perfect. It was close enough to walk to the main street of Jim thorpe, which means you dont have to worry about parking and you get to see the amazing view along the walk. -You cant beat the price. Places at Jim thorpe actually cost even more then this place. -Dee keeps this place in top shape. Its clean, comfortable and aesthetically pleasing to the eye. She left litte treats around and hand written notes. I felt so welcomed. -I felt safe most importantly, it was surrounded by a neighborhood of ederly and families. I dont think anyone would regret this choice of stay! Thanks! lolocation of this

Everything we could possibly need/want was provided! Really cute and comfortable place. Bed is a little too high - was hard getting in/out of it. Disappointing there's no window to open except for the bathroom, but not a deal breaker.

Perfect homebase for biking Lehigh Gorge RailTrail

We had made reservations to take the shuttle from town and bike on two days. Turns out we were an easy ride to town and back. On the ride home, we picked up a steak and fresh asparagus, a bottle of wine and enjoyed a lovely outdoor patio dinner, made on the nice new grill. All the details in this property are beyond all the VRBOs we’ve visited, down to the nightlight and the comfy bed. Dee even left out snacks for us to nibble. Thanks Dee. You’re a wonderful host!
