Four of us stayed at this house because we wanted to visit Jim Thorpe! The house was very spacious and clean! We were able to explore and sight see during the day then come back and play games and relax. We all said it would be a great place to bring a family as there is plenty of room plus a game room in the basement! The deck was lovely and the only thing we wished was that the weather was a bit warmer so we could have sat out there and had tea in the morning! Would definitely stay here again and recommend to others

Very Nice House

This house was great. Very comfortable and has all of the amenities anyone could want. I didn't think we would use the game room, but with rainy conditions, it was greatly appreciated! Would recommend and stay there again.

A Perfect Getaway

Our recent stay at this property was nothing short of exceptional. From the moment we arrived, we were greeted with a sense of comfort and relaxation that lasted throughout our entire stay. The house itself was simply amazing. One of the first things that struck us was the ample space. There was plenty of room for everyone in our group. Not only was the house spacious, but it was also immaculately clean and beautifully modern. It was evident that the property owner takes great pride in maintaining their home to the highest standards. What truly set this property apart was the sheer number of activities available. Whether we wanted to relax on the deck, play games in the basement, build a fire, or explore the surrounding area, there was never a dull moment. The property owner was incredibly accommodating and outgoing, providing us with recommendations & ensuring that we had everything we needed for a memorable stay. The location of the property was also ideal. Tucked away in a beautiful setting, we felt a world away from the hustle and bustle of everyday life, yet still conveniently close to attractions and amenities. The master bedroom being on the first floor was a definite plus, offering convenience and privacy. Our stay at this property exceeded all expectations. From the amazing house to the welcoming property owner and great location, every aspect of our experience was top-notch. We would highly recommend this property to anyone looking for the perfect getaway.

John's place turned out to be a last minute booking, due to weather complications. It turned out great for my friends and I. The kitchen was well appointed, the directions were clear and thorough and the place was very comfortable for my friends and I. We used, and enjoyed, the downstairs game room. The proximity to the unexpectedly cute town of Jim Thorpe, PA was a bonus. I am most appreciative of John's timely responses.
