I loved how the owners were very communicative but not too suffocating or hovering. Check is was contactless and they were never bothering us! House was beautiful and came with all appliances such as pots and pans.
We enjoyed a comfortably relaxing time at this cozy and well equipped rental. The check-in was easy and the listing was described well. We love staying in the Bear Creek Lake community and the general area of Jim Thorpe with all it has to offer for our nature loving family. Thank you Sharon and Jose, for your kind and timely responses to our questions.
It was just what we were looking for - a well-maintained property in a good location. It wasn't too far from things to do, but remote enough to feel serene. The owners were very helpful and communicative as well. Highly recommended, I would stay here again.
Loved the large outdoor spaces

We had a wonderful time in Jim Thorpe! The house was clean and everything we needed was there. The hosts were quick to respond to any questions or concerns we had. Would stay here again and recommend to friends!
Beautiful home! Was very comfortable here. Great location. Owners were fabulous to deal with, answered all my questions before and during trip and were very accommodating! The perfect place to stay in Jim Thorpe!!
My family wanted a beautiful place with ease for the kiddos. That’s just what we got. Swimming everyday (sometimes twice a day), walks in the evening, board games at night. Our stay was fantastic and the hosts were more then accommodating. We look forward to returning one day.
Spent a few fun days here in early August and can see how it would be nice all year. The house is clean and well stocked.
