The well-equipped kitchen features granite counter tops and brand new stainless steel appliances with a rustic slate floor. The large covered deck has a gas grill and patio furniture for an evening meal and time to enjoy good conversations with friends and family, or simply relax on the porch swing on the shaded porch while reading a book. There is an additional enclosed patio area on the lower level.

Duckers Bike Trip - 2024
Second year in a row at this property. Fits 8 adults easily with room to spare. Lots of things to do at the house and close proximity to downtown Jim Thorpe. Plenty of parking for 4 vehicles with utility trailers and 4 motorcycles. VRBO hosts are nice and accommodating. We will return again in the future. Thank you Debbie and Robin!

Nice house
We stayed at Hinkle House for a long weekend with family ranging from age 9 to 81. The property was clean and well organized. We really enjoyed the porch and the game room and the kitchen was well stocked and equipped. We were disappointed that there was no pool. The VRBO listing states pool as an amenity. There is a community pool close-by but only residents are allowed. Access to a pool was one of the reasons we chose this house. We had 8 people and this house comfortably sleeps 8. The listing states it sleeps 11. As it contains 3 double beds, 2 twins, 1 air mattress and 1 cot, stating it sleeps 11 is inaccurate. We would have given 5 stars if the listing was accurate.

Exceptional spacious property
We visited to celebrate a 30th birthday. All the rooms are well furnished, plenty of room for socializing, with comfortable seating on both levels. The porch and deck are also well furnished, but the cold weather kept us indoors. We went to Jim Thorpe, just down the road, and welcomed the respite from the crowds afforded by this location. Anyone planning to use Uber should note getting a ride back was impossible. Fortunately, we had a car parked in Jim Thorpe. Easy to shuttle folks back and forth, needing to park 1 car in Jim Thorpe instead of finding multiple elusive parking spots there. Hosts are terrific about communicating, too. Just about the best rental I've ever had from VRBO and other rental sites.

Good for two families.
We were very pleased with the accommodations. The downstairs provided the perfect place for the family who had a newborn baby--they could decamp so the baby didn't bother anyone. The mattresses are overly firm, one might say hard; they would benefit from some foam toppers or something to improve the comfort. House was very clean. Location is central to everything in Lehighton which is great, as it's not a large town and it can be difficult to find satisfactory accommodations in town.

A great home and location
What a lovely home, with a great, convenient location to various attractions, and shops to grab essentials. We loved how every room has a theme, and how the house has so many gathering spaces for hanging out, taking and playing games. We had a wonderful stay, and the homeowners were very responsive, and a pleasure to deal with at every stage. We would absolutely stay there again.

Nice place, uncomfortable beds
It's a really nice place. Clean, well kept, the AC was fine. The property is well maintained and in good repair. But the beds... Like concrete on stilts. Had to go buy mattress toppers. That's literally the only bad part, unfortunately poor sleep really made the trip rough. Might be ok for people who like sleeping on very firm mattresses but I don't think these beds would work for most people.

Ski trip with friends
We were a party of 8 (2 families) staying here for our second ski trip this year. The location was only 25min to Blue Mountain and close to grocery stores and restaurants. The kids hung out in the basement while the adults enjoyed our time upstairs. More than anything, the place was so clean and so well organized with detailed instructions and prompt communication with the owners that it made our stay to much more enjoyable. We will definitely be coming back for the next season and I highly recommend this place!
