Comfortable & Roomy Home

We enjoyed our stay at this homey, clean and interesting house. The description on the VRBO site was complete and accurate. Loved the classic woodwork in this home. Close to center of town but we are all senior citizens so drove rather than walk the hills, but it is close enough to walk if you don't mind walking uphill to return. Also appreciated the off-street parking.

Perfect location

Location was great! Few min walk to town. Though the walk up the hill back is a challenge. Host was great and responded quickly. House was clean and spacious and fit my whole family comfortably. Would recommend to anyone looking to stay at Jim Thorpe.

Beautiful home!

We had a great stay. There were 9 of us and a pet. Bedrooms are spacious, mattresses comfortable and linen clean. Plenty of space to hang out in kitchen and dining room, furniture in living room very cozy, there was even a lighted Christmas tree! Communication was amazing with Patricia responding within minutes to any query. She also updated me on status of roads and had salt on porch ready for use if necessary. Would definitely recommend!!

Nice and reasonably priced house in Jim Thorpe

House clean and nicely appointed. Heating system odd and a bit hard to control. Pillows poor. Beds ok. Not in walking distance to town as we had thought, especially in freezing cold weather with children.

Wonderful Weekend

We enjoyed the great location of Josephine's house! Just a short walk (downhill) to town and all its offerings. We all slept comfortably and plenty of towels and extra blankets were provided. We enjoyed the back porch alot! Plenty of off-street parking for our group.

Great time in Jim Thorp!

We had a wonderful time in JT! The house was quite cozy and quaint. Clean. Property manager replied within a few minutes. We arrived early and we were able to enter the home which was greatly appreciated. Rooms are large, air conditioning was wonderful too. Walking distance to Downtown. Would definitely stay there again.

Great Place

Really great location and a good-sized place. We easily fit 3 couples and 7 children (ages 3 to 7). We loved sitting out on the front and back porches, and the kids loved playing in the yard. The living room was very comfortable and lots of seating. The walk into town is a bit steep, but there was enough of a shoulder and sidewalks that it felt safe, even with lots of little kids. The AC units worked great on all 3 levels. We would stay here again.

Good Times in Jim Thorpe

The house was very clean and the beds were extremely comfortable; two of the most important things when traveling! Not all bedrooms have air conditioning, which might be fine in milder weather, but it was very hot the four days we were there. However, the first floor was cool and comfortable, as were the other air-conditioned bedrooms. We had a great time and a happy stay at Josephine’s House : )

Women’s weeky

Love Jim Thorpe area. Even a little snow to make it prettier. Great location for everyone to do a little of their own thing. The house was nice. A little small for our larger group, but we made it work cause the location was great. Owner was very helpful when needed.

Great house in Jim Thorpe

The house was very large with plenty of room for our family. The photos on the website didn't do the house justice. It was larger and prettier in person. I found it well equipped and very livable. It was extremely cold the weekend we stayed because of the polar vortex, but the home remained warm and cozy. I would definitely recommend and would love to stay again.

Group stay in Jim Thorpe

I was looking for a location that was convenient for my adult children and I to have a holiday gathering. This property came up from my filters and fit the bill. Communication was great. It was easy to reserve and share info with all who were coming. House was very clean, and more spacious than I imagined. It accomodated our large group comfortably. Very happy with price and experience

One time stay

The house itself was ok but there is not much to do no board games or anything like that. The walk to the town is short walking distance but not much to do there either. In general it was worth to se it once old fashion town. There is no dishwasher which i would strongly recommended.

Fun Times in Jim Thorpe

Fun Friends weekend in Jim Thorpe! The house was awesome with plenty of room located just up the hill from town. The hill was a little challenging but non the less we walked to and from town both days. We took the train ride and strolled the beautiful streets of Jim Thorpe. Plenty of restaurants and bars to relax and enjoy. This was our 1st time in Jim Thorpe and already looking forward to visiting again some day! Thankyou so very much!!

Fun filled family weekend

The house was very clean and well stocked with everything we needed. All the beds and furniture were very comfortable. The back porch and yard were a nice bonus for hanging out and having a safe space to move around with a two year old. We are big walkers, so we braved the hill every day to walk to town which really isn’t that bad. It was a heck of a lot better than trying to find parking. Also, all the trails we hit were in very close driving distance. We have rented from Patricia before at another property of hers. She is a great host. Thanks again!

Day of cancelation beware

Booked this property for a ski weekend getaway to celebrate my brother's birthday. On the day of check in no information about how to access the property has been uploaded. I messaged the owner to ask. Within minutes I get an email saying my trip had been refunded with the message due to illness. Under 6 hours from arrival we now had no where to stay and hundreds of dollars in ski tickets and rentals. The owner would not respond to any follow up messages for more information. I ended up having to book a hotel 35 minutes away ruining my well planned trip to Jim Thorpe and downgrading our experience while exploding my stress level.

Great stay... But details in description left out

Easy check in. Owner very responsive. I had asked if hair dryer before arrived, she said there was one, but was broken when we got there. She brought one immediately to the house.😀 I felt like a few things in the description were a little off but we made do. There are no "Murphy beds".One of the "bedrooms" is just a very small room w no closet, and a squeaky daybed w a pull out bed underneath, that I wouldn't suggest for anyone more than a child. The three queen bedrooms are very comfortable, nice, and spacious. The stairs to the 3rd fl are scary, narrow.King bed is great, but the room is very odd to say the least. If someone is in bed you could see someone take a shower or on the toilet!! No wall separating the bedroom from the bathroom, even though would be easy to construct one. Room divider is useless. TINY SHOWER. So if you have a house full of adults I would basically say you have one and a half baths, and the full bathroom on the third floor can only be used if no one else is up there. Very strange side room off that, basically an attic. One of the weirdest sleeping situations, with two twin beds very high up on these platforms that I would not feel comfortable with myself or my child sleeping on, and the room has no AC. Maybe kids would think fun. Make sure you look at the pictures to see if the house fits your needs.Clean, well stocked, GREAT location. The hill was a challenge! Really enjoyed fire pit & deck. TW...info on ped cancer & death, should list in details.
