Wooded quiet haven
This is a quiet lovely home in a wooded development with a great back yard area about 15 minutes from historical Jim Thorpe, PA. We were visiting to enjoy fall foliage and to bike the Lehigh River Gorge. It was a great place to stay away from the huge crowds of downtown Jim Thorpe. The home was large so we never used the 2nd floor bedroom space, or the basement family room.... great areas for a larger group. We enjoyed our stay, and would recommend for family groups to enjoy this beautiful area of PA. We enjoyed the visiting herd of deer who quietly watched us load our car from the lawn. A great place to stay.

Very nice property with a beautiful great room and well appointed kitchen. Our party of 6 adults was very comfortable there. A great base for exploring Jim Thorpe, biking the Lehigh Gorge Trail, and whitewater rafting (we did all 3). The basement with the games, etc. smelled musty and we would not have wanted to hang out there, but we had no time for that anyway. Overall, it was a great location for us, comfortable, and reasonably priced.

The perfect home to entertain…
A few friends and I rented this great home and it exceeded our expectations. It was very clean, nicely decorated, and the beds were comfortable! We only had a short stay but we all wish we could have stayed longer. It’s the perfect house to entertain in…the kitchen is very well stocked and had every appliance you could think of so we had fun cooking all our meals and baking desserts. The dining area is large and had more than enough space for everyone. The home is stocked with lots of games (video games and board games) and the SMART TV is signed into all the great apps (Disney+, Prime, Hulu, etc) so we really had no reason to venture out during our short stay. We really enjoyed our stay and I can’t wait to come back!!!

A wonderful stay in a wonderful home…
What a lovely home!!! This home has everything you need for a restful, relaxing time away. The beds are comfy, the house is very well stocked, and there is enough space for everyone in both the communal areas and the bedrooms. The community gets together to watch the sunset every night at the lake and my photo enthusiast husband got some amazing photos and we made friends with the neighbors. We spent hours and hours of our time hanging in the basement, there are arcades and games to play…it was clean and a great size. The downtown Jim Thorpe area is a short ride away, under 10 min, and has a full grocery store, liquor store, lots of cute shops (check out the old school candy store), tour train, and restaurants. The host is great and very responsive when we had questions. We didn’t have kids with us but there’s a high chair, portable crib, and lots of toys which is a great bonus if you do. We really enjoyed our stay and will definitely be back!!!

Family week
It’s a very nice property inside. The pictures of downstairs look good but it’s musty and size deceiving. Once you arrive they ask you to empty dehumidifier daily. Im also not a fan of someone watching my family on cameras mounted on the home. Those items should be disclosed in description of property. They were very generous with household supplies inside. Nice amount of space. The town of Jim Thorpe was a 20 minute drive but well worth the trip.

Amazing house and location!
House was much nicer than appeared in photos. They had literally everything you would need -- fully stocked kitchen for cooking, linens and towels, toys for kids (we didn't have any but it was nice that they had so many in the closets), extremely comfortable beds, great living room for hanging out, awesome basement with fun games for young adults, beautiful deck that was lovely to have coffee on, and really big and comfortable dining room table. We were a family of four (adult kids) plus my mother and we cooked, hung out, played games they had available in the evening, sat on the deck for coffee in the morning, and slept like babies. House is in great condition and just really comfortably laid out. I worked out using the weights and yoga mats in the main floor bedroom -- awesome! Location was great, right off the main road and a quick 10 minute drive to Jim Thorpe. We hiked in Hickory Run and had ice cream at the place 2 minutes away. Dollar General was also 2 minutes away to get groceries. Perfect weekend! Can't wait to stay again.

Such a fantastic getaway...really great location!!
This weekend my family of 4 and two other families with children stayed at this beautiful home. It was very clean, nicely decorated, and matched the photos exactly. The beds were very comfortable. We had kids ranging from toddlers to teens and there was more than enough to keep everyone happy. The home is well equipped with everything you need and there is even a high chair, baby toys, and a pack-and-play which made things easier for our friends who have younger kids. The lake/beach is a short walk, 2-3 minutes so we spent lots of time there as the weather was great. The teenagers in our group loved that paintball and white water rafting were only a short 3 min drive from the house...those tours leave early in the AM but the proximity meant they could still sleep in a bit, so that made things much easier! The basement has board games, video games and air hockey which was great for our middle school children. There's a Dollar store less than a mile from the house so we were able to grab fresh produce and other groceries there and we took the short drive into downtown Jim Thorpe (less than 10 min drive) for dinners, wine tasting, and ice cream. We had breakfast and lunch on the deck, there's a large grill and a massive backyard that's perfect for the kids to play in. It really was a great weekend, we can't wait to come back!!!

Peaceful, Clean and the Perfect Location
Are you looking for a peaceful, clean, relaxing getaway? Look no further. My husband and I spent a long weekend enjoying the beauty of this property. We ate all of most of our home-cooked meals on the deck, while we experienced the deer in the backyard, up close and personal. A five minute walk to the beach, and the community comes together at night to watch the sunset. It was an incredible, friendly, amazing experience. I highly recommend this home to anyone that wants to unplug and enjoy time in nature.

Lovely home in great location
We came to Jim Thorpe as 2 families of 4 over a long weekend in January. The house is very well kept and has everything you would need for a weekend away. The kids had a blast playing in the basement with the arcade games. The sleeping options were great for families with young children. It was FREEZING, so we didn't spend much time in the yard, but it's a lovely property with space to run around. It's about 30 minutes from Blue Mountain, so skiing is convenient. We really enjoyed our stay. If you're a coffee drinker, I would recommend you bring your own K-cups to ensure you have coffee in the morning!

Awesome VRBO
This is the best VRBO we have stayed at to date and we've stayed at quite a few. They had spare toilet paper, handsoap and hand towels, so we didn't have the bring extra. I hate having to bring those extra little things out of town on a trip, I have enough to pack. The house was clean, and it was temperate as well, I have a toddler and she will find any small item left about and I didn't catch her chewing on any mysterious objects. The beds were also comfortable, which lots of vrbo's cheap out on. Would definitely stay here again.
