Bed, bath & park in updated 1890s Jim Thorpe home

Looking to slow down on your next getaway? Victorian living modernized! This bedroom and full private bath on the second floor of my primary home with free parking spot is a pleasant walk (10min, 1 mile) from downtown. You are close enough for a cold brew, bike ride, or cocktail without the need for your car. Our goal is to meet and exceed expectations for your stay at our home. Please kindly read the full property description to ensure you are comfortable with a homestay. The space THE EXPERIENCE: We look forward to welcoming you to an inspired, simple space to connect you to the history of the Anthracite Coal Region PA. Intentional design & lifestyle elements (local art, repurposed period furniture, historical library ) encourage our visitors to re-connect to the simpler things in life and cultivate curiosity for the places they are adventuring in. _____________________________________ THE HOUSE: You will enter through the front door; a staircase leads to your bedroom which includes a comfortable queen size bed and hand-refinished 1930s Art Deco furniture. The full bath on the second level is private for your use. It is not attached to the room, it is slightly down the hall. _____________________________________ IMPORTANT DETAILS: 1) This is a listing for a private room in my home, not an entire house. While guests are welcome to use the living room, this is my primary home where I live with my husband, so we may be using that space too. If you require a private entrance and need full-time access to a living room or kitchen, please consider booking an entire home or studio. The only television in our home is located in this shared space (there is no TV in your guest room). 2) While pets are welcome (and many guests with pets have happily stayed!), please only book with your dog if they are quiet and easygoing. We cannot accommodate barking dogs out of respect for our neighbors. Dogs may not be left along in the room while you are out. 3) Our house was built in 1890 and does not have central AC. The AC unit in the room runs great but we kindly ask guests to please turn it off when they leave. If you let us know when you will be arriving back, I will be more than happy to turn it back on for you shortly before you arrive. Thank you for your understanding and efforts to conserve energy! ______________________________ AN OFF STREET PARKING SPOT IS INCLUDED WITH OUR SPACE. Please park in the driveway rather than on the one-way street. Jim Thorpe was established in the 19th Century well before cars so parking in the downtown is limited, but you can easily walk or bike across the bridge and leave your car in our driveway to avoid the $25 parking fee in the municipal lot Guest access Guests can access the kitchen to make meals and use the living room if desired. Please let me know your plans so my family can arrange our plans around yours. Other things to note We are not a bed and breakfast or short term rental, but can direct you to wonderful places to eat. Tourism Note: Many restaurants and popular sites in town take Tuesday and/or Wednesday as their day off.
