About this property
Log Home in a Peaceful Wood in Jim Thorpe
Enjoy this clean, private, modern log home on 11 wooded acres, @3 miles from the center of the town of Jim Thorpe, the final resting place of James Francis Thorpe, perhaps the greatest athlete of the 20th century. The Cabin on Dew Drop Drive comfortably sleeps up to 8 people, but with enough space both inside and out so everyone can find the privacy they desire! Relax on the leather couches by the remote-controlled gas fireplace, or lounge on the sunny front porch while keeping an eye out for hummingbirds, turkeys, deer and the occasional fox or bear. Enjoy s'mores around the fire pit, and hike the woods in season to forage for wild huckleberries and blueberries. Send the kids out to play in the "tree house" (a mere 6 feet off the ground), or to ride the zip-line (weight limit 125lbs.).
You'll stay just a couple miles away from the Jim Thorpe Memorial, and you'll have easy access to the Lehigh Gorge Scenic Railway, white water rafting on the Lehigh River, bicycling and hiking in Glen Onoko State Park, swimming and fishing in nearby Mauch Chunk and Beltzville Lakes, ski resorts (Jack Frost/Big Boulder, Blue Mountain and Camelback), historic sites, art galleries, concert venues, wineries, restaurants, bars and shopping. And at the end of the day, retire to the Dew Drop Inn, our Irish-style pub downstairs!
All linens and towels are provided (bring your favorite pillow if you'd like), and you'll have access to plenty of puzzles, toys, art supplies, card and board games, a diverse selection of movies on DVD, and even a bit of exercise equipment. The kitchen and laundry room are fully equipped for your use, and WiFi is free.

We had a wonderful weekend. My husband kept commenting on how quiet it was, which was a great thing. We hope to return again. We wouldn't change a thing about this home.
What an amazing experience and an amazing house, property, and location!! Wayne was so accommodating and responsive. The pictures don’t do this place justice. The bar downstairs is so unique! 1000/10
This is our second stay at this wonderful home. We brought friends along this time, and they’re talking about coming back when the weather warms up. It was an extremely cold weekend with a lot of snow on the ground. We’re grateful the homeowner took the effort to clear the driveway and made a path to the house for us rather than canceling. It had to be exhausting. We had a great weekend. Thank you for another great stay!
Very nice cabin just as described. It was very peaceful. Very close to the town and easy to navigate. Would like to stay here again in the warmer months.
This place was absolutely amazing and did not disappoint. Very clean! Location was perfect! Host was super responsive and very kind to my random questions! Thanks for a great stay!
Had a great time for a girls wknd getaway! The place was spotless, beds were comfortable, check in was a breeze, and the pub is fantastic! The host was super responsive and the house was so cozy & comfortable! Would definitely stay again! Thanks Wayne & Sue!
Seven women in Jim Thorpe for a girls trip for a 40th birthday. The house was perfect! Secluded with everything you would need to stay in, but close enough to all the town of Jim Thorpe has to offer. Would definitely stay again.
This property is absolutely stunning and very close to Jim Thorpe. Everything was very clean and well stocked. And Wayne was very helpful with everything. I hope to come back again in the future.
Our stay was perfect! The log house was absolutely beautiful and had everything we needed. We enjoyed the Pub downstairs too! This home was the cleanest house we ever rented. We didn't want to leave. We will be back for sure.
This house was beautiful and very clean. The host was very informative about the house and visiting the town of Jim Thorpe. I just wish I spent more time there. Wayne was a great host and can't wait to book this home again
This was an ideal spot for our group of six. All promises were kept at any surprises were pleasant ones. Attention has been paid to every detail, resulting in a clean quiet and comfortable stay. Highly recommend.
From the moment our family walk through the front door we felt at home. Everything was neat and organized. The cabin and surrounding grounds made you feel like you didn’t wanna leave. Hope we get a chance to rent again.
This cabin is the perfect stay for a family looking for a cabin setting with access to amenities. The cabin has everything you could possibly need for all ages and is spotlessly clean! We were a group ranging from 3 years old to 45. Kids were thrilled with the toys, tree house, zip line, fire pit and the bunk room. Adults had everything needed to make meals, relax, and have fun too! Playing darts in the pub was an added bonus. The cabin is also just minutes from downtown Jim Thorpe. We will be back and you should book it!
So much to say about this property! It is absolutely beautiful and incredibly clean. The house is spacious, cozy and quaintly decorated. You can tell the hosts take a lot of pride in the property and they thought of a lot of little details to make the stay comfortable. The were quick with communication and left detailed yet simple instructions for the stay. The rooms are comfortable and spacious. The downstairs was so fun, like a night out without having to leave the home. We would absolutely love to stay again!
Spent a long weekend here with my husband an y best friend and her husband, such a great weekend. Close enough to town that it didn’t feel like forever to get there but far enough out to enjoy the cabin in the woods feeling. Great size for us and would have had room for the kids too if they came with. Very clear. And host sent email few days before with information on cabin and the local area. Checking in and getting in cabin was super easy. Will book again
This home is unique and flawless! Pictures and descriptions cannot do it justice. Every inch was spotlessly clean, it was incredibly well organized, and beautifully and creatively decorated. The outdoor spaces are very interesting to explore and peaceful as can be. Every room is comfortable and there is plenty of space in the kitchen. The pub is just the coolest!
The owners clearly love their home, and you will love it, too.
Dont look at any other cabin near Jim Thorpe.....This is the one!!!!
I cannot say enough about this property. Wayne was such a great host and thought of every minor detail to make our stay amazing. We were celebrating a friends 50th birthday and it was everything I wanted it to be. Check in was simple, and the owner was in contact with us to show us a picture of a bear that just came through the property the morning of our stay.
It was so peaceful with one a handful of vehicle coming down the road. We saw deer and turkey and took a hike through the property.
The bar was well stocked! Thank you so much for your hospitality!! We will be back soon!
Wayne is amazing and very responsive. The property was very clean and well kept. The family put a lot of time and effort into decorating this property and keeping it up very well. We were here second week of November 2023 and it was great. Leaves were still changing and beautiful colors to be seen.
This home is wonderful and it was great to witness so many other people being kind and decent towards the decorations and other honorary in kind items in the home.
We will be going back again! Also if you are vegan, vegetarian or aware of the products you use (toxins bleh) this home is well supplied with Dr.Bonners and a lot of the items we like to use to keep the harsh chemicals of the world out of our bodies. A small item that was noticed and greatly appreciated.
We had a great trip and would book again. Very cozy, clean, and well stocked for a comfortable stay. The kids enjoyed the games/toys available and the basement bar was fun to visit after getting the little ones to bed.
