Fantastic Location
The home is located right near the main trail! You could walk into town if you wanted to! The home is beautifully designed. Our favorite parts were the hot tub and the living room. The fireplace is so quaint and we used it every morning and night. The home was incredibly clean and organized. The owner was so helpful. We felt safe and secure during our stay.

Poconos pleasant
Lovely house, clean & spacious for a group of 4. The host is very friendly, respectful & responsive. It's only 6 min drive from Jim Thorpe, and also not far from sight seeings. I highly recommend it! We'll be sure to visit again! My 6-year old niece loved it!

This house is very nice
The property is exactly what you see in the pictures. Host was very nice. Location is convenient to Jim Thorpe. The house next to us was very run down, but that didn’t bother us in the least. I recommend this property as an excellent place to stay when you’re visiting Jim Thorpe.

Better than the pictures
I stayed here with my family and it was perfect! New and updated with a warm, welcoming feel. We went white water rafting and the rafting center is 1 block away so super convenient. We also enjoyed the fireplace and communication with the host was quick and easy. Would stay again
