About this property
Glen Onoko Guesthouse: Charming East Side Home near Scenic Train Station
We invite you to the Glen Onoko Guesthouse, a charming, preserved property ideally situated on the quieter East Side of Jim Thorpe. This specific unit is housed in the main residence of a historic mercantile building that has been lovingly renovated. Built around 1874, the home maintains its essential character with beautifully preserved original details, including artisan woodwork and authentic cast iron radiators, all thoughtfully updated for today's traveler. This location places you perfectly for accessing the area's natural beauty while enjoying a peaceful retreat away from the immediate bustle of the main area.
The property offers spacious comfort across two floors and includes four bedrooms and 1.5 clean, functional bathrooms, ideal for a family or small group. The interior provides necessary modern convenience, featuring a fully equipped kitchen with stainless steel appliances and all the cookware you need for a relaxing stay. Guests can also enjoy amenities like reliable WiFi, a Smart TV for entertainment, and a dedicated laundry area. For added convenience in this unique area, the guesthouse provides complimentary off-street parking.
Our placement on the East Side makes us a certified Trail-Friendly Business and an excellent base for adventurers. You'll find easy access to the nearby D&L Trail for hiking and biking, and close proximity to Lehigh Gorge State Park for all your four-season outdoor activities. The historic area, including the popular Lehigh Gorge Scenic Train station, shops, and dining, is just a pleasant 1.1-mile walk or short drive across the river. The guesthouse also serves as a central base for major Pocono attractions, including skiing at Blue Mountain, Big Boulder, and Jack Frost resorts.
We invite you to stay at this authentic piece of Jim Thorpe history and enjoy the best of the town and the great outdoors.
