Definitely an amazing stay
Took a weekend trip with the kids to have some family quality time. This Place is spacious and what a view 😍. Had all the necessities that we needed. My children really enjoyed the space they had to enjoy with the snow.

Lovely Winter Getaway
This hillside retreat was immaculately clean, with many amenities provided. It is a perfect spot for a family, or up to six adults, to get away. Four adults stayed five nights over the new year holiday, with plenty of room to stretch out and enjoy the beautiful view. We’ll be back!

Wonderful Stay at a Modern Cabin
My family stayed here during our ski vacation and we had a great time. The house is spacious and the area behind the house is beautiful. It is conveniently located. Blue Mountain Ski Resort is 30 minutes away by car. Jim Thorpe Historical District is just 10 minutes. We can't wait to visit again in the summer.

MTN. VACATION AT IT'S BEST
Overall, we were very satisfied. The setting was very pretty, the house was very clean, convenient to all activities. The small town of Jim Thorpe was a big surprise to see how small and quaint and to how many people were there. All four of us were over 80 and were most surprised to see the steepness of the slope from the house to the pond, and when it was time to leave that area, the climb back up that slope was more than challenging.. along with the absence of trout in the pond or stream. Again, it was a great place to see friends whom we haven't seen in a long time.

Great Hosts, Great Experience, Great Stay
Could not ask for a better place to stay, nor for better hosts. Just a hop, skip, and a jump from Jim Thorpe. This is a beautiful home that is well maintained. Ann & Ralph are very responsive, and have done their best to provide everything you could need. They even left out a ring of wood to use for bonfires. Plenty of parking for 3 cars, and the house is completely true to the advertisement. We were secluded just enough not to worry about all the loud laughter from our game night, but not completely rural, either. Easy visits to Jim Thorpe, the Martin Guitar Factory, and Coca Cola Stadium to see the Iron Pigs win. Definitely recommend this rental -10/10 would rent again. Thanks to the Clark family for a wonderful stay.

Pond house
We had a little family get together at the pond house. It was so perfect did a little catch and release on the fish. Everyone was happy and we were there for four nights. It was a great getaway and some good family time together. It was also our third time there, so maybe that says something also

Relaxing beautiful vacation
This house is great! We loved the deck with a beautiful view of the pond. Plenty of space for our family. We loved the pond with fire pit and picnic tables. Ralph was easy to get a hold of by phone. We definitely recommend this house for a great vacation. Thank you for letting us stay at your home.
