Great spot, not far from the town of Jim Thorpe, and not far from lots of good hiking and biking trails.

Great little private house close to Jim Thorpe!
Unfortunately, the wet weather prevented us from enjoying the decks on the property and the outdoor amenities. But we still had a great time in Jim Thorpe! We really enjoyed the privacy of the house and the location relative to the activities in the area!

From the Owner, "Tim, thank you for your review. It sounds like you made the most of your time, despite the challenging weather conditions. Jim Thorpe is a fun place."
This rustic home tucked into its own wooded lot had exactly the ambiance we were seeking. The proximity to the western Poconos was perfect for us and we had easy access to Jim Thorpe, Hickory Run State Park, Lehigh Gorge recreation areas and the terrific coal mining museum in Ashland.

From the owner: "Brian, Thank you so much for your constructive feedback. We are so glad you enjoyed it. Fall is a beautiful time in Jim Thorpe!"
Unfortunately our plans to go snow tubing were canceled due to intense snow conditions so we were stuck in the house, but we had a blast. Cozy yet spacious home and lots of outside space.

Liked: Cleanliness, property conditions & facilities, communication
The space was perfect for our young family. My younger two (5 and 8) loved the bunk room. The forested yard allowed our kids to play and build fairy houses while my husband and I hung on the deck. We had great access to a ton of beautiful hikes and The town of Jim Thorpe. The communication was great with our point of contact too. We also had a blast with the pool on site. Only suggested upgrades:
1. Put the queen bed downstairs with the en suite bathroom and put the full bed upstairs.
2. Add seating around the fire pit
