Ask a questionAbout Dee Ford
I met my husband Mark when he and his family owned and operated The Hotel Switzerland, now known as Molly Maguires Pub & Steakhouse. We have been in the hospitality business for decades and find enjoyment hosting guests. I personally love the town for its quiet atmosphere, beautiful scenery, and fresh, clean air.
Dee Ford purchased this Townhome in 2008
Why Dee Ford chose Jim Thorpe
My career in retail led us to this one of a kind charming building, with a lovely storefront with double display windows. The building has it's own unique personality and I was in awe of the architecture still intact. We embarked on a renovation of the building to offer more occupant comfort, use less energy and features better overall space efficiency.
What makes this Townhome unique
Unique in style, the Guesthouse will be fully renovated as an adaptive reuse of a vintage mercantile building. While no longer offered as a mercantile trade, today the building is reimagined as a place for adventure seekers to live like a local and explore the natural beauty of the area. The Glen Onoko Guesthouse is recognized as a D&L Trail Friendly Business. Our mountains, river and scenic views attracts travelers to outdoor adventure.
