About this property
Log Home in a Peaceful Wood in Jim Thorpe
Enjoy this clean, private, modern log home on 11 wooded acres, @3 miles from the center of the town of Jim Thorpe, the final resting place of James Francis Thorpe, perhaps the greatest athlete of the 20th century. The Cabin on Dew Drop Drive comfortably sleeps up to 8 people, but with enough space both inside and out so everyone can find the privacy they desire! Relax on the leather couches by the remote-controlled gas fireplace, or lounge on the sunny front porch while keeping an eye out for hummingbirds, turkeys, deer and the occasional fox or bear. Enjoy s'mores around the fire pit, and hike the woods in season to forage for wild huckleberries and blueberries. Send the kids out to play in the "tree house" (a mere 6 feet off the ground), or to ride the zip-line (weight limit 125lbs.).
You'll stay just a couple miles away from the Jim Thorpe Memorial, and you'll have easy access to the Lehigh Gorge Scenic Railway, white water rafting on the Lehigh River, bicycling and hiking in Glen Onoko State Park, swimming and fishing in nearby Mauch Chunk and Beltzville Lakes, ski resorts (Jack Frost/Big Boulder, Blue Mountain and Camelback), historic sites, art galleries, concert venues, wineries, restaurants, bars and shopping. And at the end of the day, retire to the Dew Drop Inn, our Irish-style pub downstairs!
All linens and towels are provided (bring your favorite pillow if you'd like), and you'll have access to plenty of puzzles, toys, art supplies, card and board games, a diverse selection of movies on DVD, and even a bit of exercise equipment. The kitchen and laundry room are fully equipped for your use, and WiFi is free.

We had a great stay here when we skiied Blue Mountain. Super close car ride to downtown Jim Thorpe. The house itself was so cozy and loved the cabin vibes. We enjoyed playing darts and listening to music in the pub downstairs.
We had a great trip and would book again. Very cozy, clean, and well stocked for a comfortable stay. The kids enjoyed the games/toys available and the basement bar was fun to visit after getting the little ones to bed.
We had a wonderful weekend. My husband kept commenting on how quiet it was, which was a great thing. We hope to return again. We wouldn't change a thing about this home.

Yes, it is very quiet here, and I hope the darkness at night helped everyone to sleep super well!
What an amazing experience and an amazing house, property, and location!! Wayne was so accommodating and responsive. The pictures don’t do this place justice. The bar downstairs is so unique! 1000/10

Thank you so much for your kind words! Please come back anytime!
This is our second stay at this wonderful home. We brought friends along this time, and they’re talking about coming back when the weather warms up. It was an extremely cold weekend with a lot of snow on the ground. We’re grateful the homeowner took the effort to clear the driveway and made a path to the house for us rather than canceling. It had to be exhausting. We had a great weekend. Thank you for another great stay!
Yes/Responsive/suitable for our The bedrooms were clean and comfortable, the host responded quickly, the kitchen suited our needs, and we have great memories of playing games downstairs in the pub. The location near Jim Thorpe provided us great opportunities for new experiences in the beautiful fall environment.
The home was great. The location, out of the busy downtown, was wonderful and quiet. The beds were comfortable. The kitchen was well stocked. We had fun playing darts and quoits, sitting on the porch and by the fire. Really a fantastic place.

We had an awesome weekend at the log cabin in Jim Thorpe! The host was responsive and all of the instructions were clear and reasonable. The home was immaculate, well-appointed, and very cozy and comfortable. And an Irish pub in the basement?!?! It truly doesn't get any better! The location was great - close to Jim Thorpe, state parks, and lots of other activities.

Communication with Wayne (the owner) was exceptional. The cabin was spotless and beautiful. The owners thought of everything you might need during your stay , along with recommendations of restaurants and activities to check out during your time there . Would love to come again !
We had an amazing stay at the Log Home. Wayne was a great host. The house had everything we needed- it was pristine and fully stocked with the essentials- great bunk room for the kids and the bar was an added bonus for the adults in the group. Would absolutely come back and stay again!
Very nice cabin just as described. It was very peaceful. Very close to the town and easy to navigate. Would like to stay here again in the warmer months.
