Carolee and Oliver were amazing hosts. The property was beautiful and they were so kind! They went out of their way to ensure that we made the most of our stay and were chock full of recommendations and information that really allowed us to have the most memorable weekend. We cannot wait to go back!
Beautiful property to walk around and enjoy nature. The loft was very clean and taken care of. Out of the bustle of Jim Thorpe, but still close enough (just under a half hour) to go and spend the day. The train tracks right in front was a unique experience! Thank you so much!
