Thank you so much for the kind words about the apartment, artwork, and kitchen — we’re glad you enjoyed your stay. Just to clarify for future guests: complimentary off-street parking is provided in our private lot, and full parking instructions are included in the check-in details. Unfortunately, local street parking is strictly enforced downtown, and arriving prior to the designated check-in time can sometimes lead to issues like this. We appreciate you staying with us and hope the rest of your visit was enjoyable.

We had a wonderful stay at Joan’s loft! The space itself is so cozy and beautiful. We enjoyed the open layout and spa like bathroom. The loft was very bright and I could’ve spent the whole day in the stunning kitchen. My daughters loved the upstairs sleeping area, the piano, and the various family games. Check in and check out were a breeze & location was great. Would love to stay here again in the future!

Our trip to Jim Thorpe was accented by this amazing property. We can't wait to come back and bring the kids. The Loft is perfectly appointed and a really cool setting to come "home" to after enjoying the culture, food, and activities the town has to offer. Cafe Arielle, just downstairs, has really good food and service. Don't miss the museum downstairs too!

This is it

I found the only place i would wanna stay in Jim Thorpe. It’s an expansive loft housed in an old wire rope factory, which also houses an awesome restaurant/cafe (we were able to order food from here) and an art gallery (soo much to look at) The loft was covered in art and in itself a work of art. The bathroom is beautifully designed! Sounds silly…but, def wanna check it out when you arrive! Pup friendly and family friendly and suuuper clean. (we have 2 kids and 2 pups) Getting up to the loft requires some stairs. We don’t mind stairs…some might. Personable and friendly hosts We definitely will be returning.

Refreshing Get-Away

We have stayed in Jim Thorpe on numerous occasions. This was our first time staying at The Loft, but it won't be our last! This place is phenomenal. Joan accommodated our late arrival and even provided us with a full tour of the Loft, the Gallery and the Flow Restaurant. We hope the restaurant will be open for business on our next visit. The Loft was clean and had everything we needed for our get-away. We were able to store our bikes safely in the Mud Room. The evening we arrived was a bit chilly, Joan had created a warm and cozy environment by starting the pellet stove and gas heater. She provided us with complete instructions on how to operate everything we needed. We will be back! And we will definitely recommend this place to all our friends!

Our stay was overall enjoyable and memorable. The hostess was exceptionally friendly and helpful, offering us excellent suggestions for local excursions and making us feel very welcome. The loft itself was charming—open, full of character, and beautifully decorated with art. Its unique aesthetic and interesting location made it stand out from other rentals we’ve visited. Parking was also easy and convenient, which we appreciated.That said, there were several aspects that could use improvement. The quality of the amenities felt below par; for instance, the coffee maker seemed pieced together from various parts, and there was some noticeable dust and dirt around. Most importantly, the mattresses were extremely uncomfortable—either rock-hard or uneven—which made sleeping difficult. This really detracted from the experience, as restful sleep is such a key part of any stay. Additionally, we noticed the absence of basic items like soap and shampoo in the bathroom, which are typically standard in most rentals.With just a bit more attention to comfort and detail—especially regarding the beds and basic amenities—this could easily be a high-end, truly exceptional place to stay. As it stands, we were content overall, but we do hope to see these improvements made in the future.

We truly apologize for the missed details you mentioned — that’s on us, and we’ve already taken steps to ensure all amenities (including soap and shampoo) are restocked before each arrival.

The Most Pleasant Surprise

What started as a search for a place "just to stay" for a last-minute Birthday getaway to explore downtown Jim Thorpe became the main attraction. Joan and Victor have one of the most unique and amazing properties we've ever stayed in. The Loft was outstanding. High end finishes and amazing detail and character. Cafe Arielle was tremendous with delicious food and cocktails. Victor's Art Gallery and Museum was absolutely stunning. I'm no art buff but I absolutely couldn't take my eyes off of his amazing work. The best part (pure dumb luck on our part) is the night we arrived, Joan and Victor were hosting a Jazz performance by an amazing (and apparantly Grammy nominated) trio of musicians in their intimate performance space. Joan and Victor's passion for what they do is infectious and we're so glad we had the chance to meet them. It all led to a weekend we'll never forget, and we can't wait to go back to visit them again!

It’s wonderful to hear you enjoyed the loft, Café Arielle, and the art gallery, and that Victor’s work captured your attention — even for a non-art buff!

About the host

Hosted by Joan Morykin

Host profile image
I am an avid runner and cyclist and the mother of two young children. My husband is an artist who also has his studio in the building where we also run an art gallery and event venue space.

Why they chose this property

I first visited Jim Thorpe on a weekend getaway from New York City in 1998 and immediately fell in love with the town - its proximity to New York and Philadelphia was perfect for a weekend retreat and I bought a small weekend house. A number of years later, my artist husband was looking for studio space and we purchased a 15,000 sq. ft. former wireworks factory and spent six years fixing up the building. As an avid runner, the beautiful mountain trails still hold a fascination for me every time I go out. This town is perfect to raise a family - there is an old-fashioned candy store, a classic 5&10 and easy access to the Lehigh River and a recreational lake park, skiing and cycling.

What makes this property unique

Outdoor lovers can access an extensive trail system connecting a quarter-mile from the loft to enjoy bicycling, running, hiking, or cross-country skiing. The nearby Lehigh River also provides access for whitewater rafting, kayaking, and fishing through a number of outfitters. Eclectic shops, museums, and the Mauch Chunk Opera House are all within walking distance from the property. Other nearby activities include swimming, fishing, and boating at the beautiful Mauch Chunk Lake Park. During each season, visitors can enjoy a number of the annual festivals including the Fall Foliage Weekends, Jim Thorpe Birthday Celebration, Earth Day, Olde Time Christmas, Winterfest, and the Burlesque Festival.
