The entire family enjoyed our stay. The house was very clean, had lots of games and toys to entertain my grandson. To the point he didn't want to leave. The host was very easy to work with and the checking in and out was easy.

Sibling Trip - Again!
This was not our first trip to Jim Thorpe staying at The Switchback House. We absolutely love everything about it. From its cleanliness, to the charming decor highlighting Jim Thorpe/Mauch Chunk's past, to the location - we can walk to everything we need. The private off-street parking is the icing on the cake! We're bound to return ... Again!

Girls weekend
First time visiting Jim Thorpe and we couldn't have picked a better place to stay. Felt like home the minute we walked in! It deserves a five star rating because of the care you can see in the house. Clean, organized and quality products. Bathroom had plenty of new towels and extras like shampoo, lotion etc. Extra pillow and blankets. We didn't cook but the cupboards are filled with everything needed. They even had phone chargers for use! I will definitely be renting here again for our next visit.

Nice place in Jim Thorpe
This was a surprise bday trip for my husband. I wanted something near the downtown area of Jim Thorpe because I knew parking could be terrible there. This house was great. I'm so glad I chose to pick a place in walking distance because otherwise, we wouldn't have been able to find parking (it has gotten way busier than the last time I was there). We used the trail at the back of the house to walk to the Mt Pisgah trail. It was very convenient. We also hiked some other trails in the area. It is about a 10 minute walk to the downtown area. The walk back from dinner can be tiring especially after hiking all day. The house was great overall. Nice and clean. Bed was comfortable though I did switch out our pillows for the ones in the closet. We did have trouble with the side door lock but that was probably user error and we didn't ask the host to try and figure it out. I would stay here again if we came back to the area. Oh if you don't want to walk to restaurants, I highly suggest the Union Publick House. It was our favorite place to eat in Jim Thorpe and it's just a short drive.
