Pisces Birthday getaway

It was perfectly decorated. We loved the owls and creativity and color choices that went into creating an artsy spa like oasis in Jim Thorpe. We went to 2 shows at the Opera House St. Patsweekend it was perfect.

Fantastic two-day trip to Jim Thorpe

This is a one-of-a-kind property and we LOVED it. We wished we could stay longer! The hosts were so welcoming and everything was sparkling clean and so cleverly decorated and how cool to have the old jail right out the living room windows! We can't wait to go back.

A magical holiday stay

My husband, dog, and I stayed here for 2 nights at Christmas. The apartment was beautiful to begin with, especially the lighted gemstone piece. But add Christmas decorations with the fireplace and it was so charming and festive! The location is perfect- it’s far enough away to avoid the tourist congestion but close enough to be able to walk everywhere, and I loved being right across from the old jail. Jim Thorpe is incredibly dog friendly, and we were able to bring our dog into many of the shops. Jeffrey also gave us great suggestions on dog friendly restaurants and bars. He also suggested to check out the grotto behind the house, and we all loved the mini hike on the hill. What a great stay! Highly recommend.

This was our second time staying here and won’t be our last. Quiet location and the host, Jeffery, is always helpful and very thorough. We have recommended Jeffery’s place to many friends who have stayed in Jim Thorpe.

Great place for friends to gather

We enjoyed this house. It has unique style and is very well designed with everything you might need. The outdoor spaces invite you to sit and talk with friends. Its close to the activity of the town but is quiet at night. Free parking is a huge perk!

Mother/daughter overnight trip in Jim Thorpe. This was an ideal location. The apartment is very roomy and well appointed. Quiet location right across from the old jail with a parking space which is practically unheard of in Jim Thorpe. Highly recommend!

An absolute dream

I’ve been wanting to stay at this property for awhile and it was well worth the wait! Communication with the owners was easy and helpful with activity and restaurant recommendations. Lots to do and super dog friendly. Both my toddler and my dog were at ease and loved exploring the local area. Everything from the bed, to the living room, to the bathroom was amazingly comfortable. My toddler was obsessed with the crystal wall. Cannot wait to return!

About the host

Hosted by Jeffrey

Host profile image
I am drawn to Jim Thorpe and to the Pocono's in general and am very glad to live in this amazing town surrounded by the ever changing Appalachian landscape. You cannot beat the endless miles of mountain biking and hiking trails, or the tubing, kayaking, skirmish, yoga, skiing, rivers, lakes, and fishing or the cultural and historical attractions. So close to the major east coast cities, yet worlds away!

Immerse yourself in the history and magic of Jim Thorpe...
