This VRBO was awesome. Clean, comfortable, spacious and very nicely decorated and appointed. The location was perfect for our short trip. Jeffrey graciously met us on arrival to guide us on off-street parking and logistics. We will be back. Better than any hotel

The apartment was well equipped, beautifully decorated and very comfortable. The location across from the old jail (which is a great place to tour) was perfect. Easy to walk down to the shopping/eating area, but out of the crowded area. Our dog loved it and there were ample places to walk him.

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.

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!
