Relaxing Stay
Nice little house very comfortable and relaxing. Easy check-in and had everything we needed. House is nice and private and located at a perfect spot. We enjoyed our stay and look forward to returning in the future. The only thing that the owners may want to think about is updating the living room furniture especially the one recliner which is very worn and loose. This did not bother us since it was only two of us we did not use it anyway.The house was very cozy!! Very much enjoyed our stay.

Weekend away
This was the perfect location for a weekend getaway. Even though it rained most of our stay, we really enjoyed the solitude of being in a secluded area. Very close to downtown Jim Thorpe if you want to enjoy restaurants or shopping!

Penn's Peak weekend
Two suggestions, it would be nice if sheets and towels were included and if you could take away the garbage. Most other places I stayed these things are included. Other than that the stay was Wonderful.

Loved the location of this peaceful getaway. Deer galore right off the back deck. The densely wooded area provided lots of privacy. Just the right size. A short walk to the community lake! The host responded right away when i had a question. Very nice cozy cabin!!

Great weekend getaway!
We were bummed that there was an outdoor fire ban during our stay, but we got the Sega Genesis working, so that was a nice surprise. The cabin and grounds are lovely, perfect for a mental reset. We hope to be back again!

Cozy cabin in the woods
The place was perfect size for my husband and I. We loved the wooded setting and seeing deer. Unfortunately it rained our whole time, so we didn't get to enjoy the deck or fire pit. Hopefully next time.

Me & my boyfriend loved this cozy little cabin for our weekend getaway! We came to town for The Mahoning Drive-In opening weekend which we were only 30 minutes away from & it was the perfect space. Quiet, clean, & great communication with Eileen & Loren. We will definitely be back. Thank you for an amazing stay!!

Great stay!
My husband and I loved staying at this cabin. It was so nice to have some amenities you don’t get at other cabins. It was so quiet and peaceful. Lake was just around the corner and Jim Thorpe was a blast! Loren & Eileen were very kind and respond quickly to emails. My husband and I can’t wait to come back!

Nice dated cabin in woods
The cabin was fine for what we needed. It was mostly clean but had A LOT of random nick nacks and stuff on the walls collecting dust. The bathroom and carpeting was pretty dated. The outdoor fire pit was nice. We saw a ton of deer which was cool.

Autumn escape
We wanted to see the leaves change color and we were not disappointed. A very secluded and comfortable space and beautiful setting. No bears visited but each morning deer came by the cabin. Remarkably convenient, just a short drive from major highways.

Anniversary Trip
Our first trip to Jim Thorpe and we loved it! The cabin made a perfect “home base” for us and our pup as we explored the area. Was comfortable, well appointed, and in a great central location. Communication with owner was easy and pleasant. Future guests note: older pictures on listing - we anticipated a coffee pot but cabin has a keurig instead. BRING YOUR OWN TOWELS AND SHEETS. I almost missed that before our trip. :) Thank you for sharing your cabin with us!

Perfect first family vacation!
We chose this property because it looked like it would be just what we needed for our first trip with our toddler and dog, and we were so happy to see that it was exactly as we expected it to be. Our son was so intrigued by all of the little knick knacks around the cabin, and the quiet surroundings kept our dog from barking for 3 days! We loved being able to have our dog stay with us, and felt like the property was safe enough for our newly-walking toddler. Seeing a deer come up close to the deck on our last day was a perfect send-off for us!

Great Weekend Getaway!
The cabin was exactly as described and conveniently located to many local attractions. We enjoyed visiting the downtown area of Jim Thorpe and taking the train ride tour, with our pups! There are terrific shops, restaurants and coffee shops (check out Muggle's Mug & Myst). There are many great hikes to take in the area. We went to see local waterfalls. The fire pit was great to relax to in the evening. The host was fantastic! Great communication & even checked in with us to see if we were enjoying ourselves! Already thinking of going back & visiting Skirmish to play paintball.

Cozy & old-fashioned cabin experience
I felt like I had walked into my grandparents' cabin--it was easy to feel at home. Very wooded property, and deer came right up within a few feet of the house. On rainy days at the cabin we were able to keep entertained with the smart TV and board games. The community lake was perfect for our 7 year old to swim in and he also enjoyed the playground. Loren and Eileen make it very easy to handle the contact-free check in and check out (definitely a relief during COVID.)

Cozy Cabin, Jim Thorpe
The cabin was so-so, but the owners were helpful. We had to bring everything we’d need, as we were told, though I have never brought linens to a rental before. The kitchen sink got plugged up often, to which we took the plunger! No directions for trash removal at an off site unnamed location. A very complicated TV arrangement in both rooms, with no instructions which should have been with the remote. The coffee pot didn’t work so I had to buy one. It was advertised that the fireplace in the house was for our use but a sign said DO NOT USE. Talked to owner and issue was resolved. However no lumber to burn despite the photo on the website showed a giant log holder and cover, but it was devoid of wood burning logs. When we used the fireplace, the very old badly tarnished brass door fell off! The porch was a messy mess with old plastic furniture. But the grill worked great! Fridge and stove quite old but worked fine. Same with can opener and toaster. Also house was freshly painted. The house has all new windows and sliding doors. The front access stairs and deck access stairs absolutely need railings.

Getaway
Hello, Thank for you the cabin in the woods. I will state there were some things that needed attention. 1. The front window & door window have no privacy curtains. 2. There was a hole in the bathroom door from the living room side. The bathroom door on the inside also had mold at the bottom. 3. The shower curtain in the bath had mold on it 4.The selection of pots & pans could use some help. They were quite abused and dirty. 3.The fire pit out back was so full of trash, ash & wood it couldn't even be used. 4. The outside environment had littered ladders and things laying about, not all that attractive to look at. I will say we enjoyed our stay. I own a campground in Potter County PA and have cabin rentals & I always look for things that could use a little help, that is my nature because of having guests stay with us.
