Fall get-away

Our trip to Jim Thorpe was accented by this amazing property. We can't wait to come back and bring the kids. The Loft is perfectly appointed and a really cool setting to come "home" to after enjoying the culture, food, and activities the town has to offer. Cafe Arielle, just downstairs, has really good food and service. Don't miss the museum downstairs too!

Lovely place to celebrate our anniversary!

Joan and Victor have a beautiful home in Jim Thorpe and we are so happy that we were able to stay in their loft for our anniversary weekend! The loft is a unique space and so comfortable and so close to town. We had dinner reservations in the restaurant below the loft which was a fantastic meal with the best wait staff! Walked into town, biked the trails and shopped in town! Beautiful amazing weekend! Thanks again Joan and Victor we will definitely recommend your loft, restaurant and art museum to anyone!

This is it

I found the only place i would wanna stay in Jim Thorpe. It’s an expansive loft housed in an old wire rope factory, which also houses an awesome restaurant/cafe (we were able to order food from here) and an art gallery (soo much to look at) The loft was covered in art and in itself a work of art. The bathroom is beautifully designed! Sounds silly…but, def wanna check it out when you arrive! Pup friendly and family friendly and suuuper clean. (we have 2 kids and 2 pups) Getting up to the loft requires some stairs. We don’t mind stairs…some might. Personable and friendly hosts We definitely will be returning.

The perfect getaway spot for Christmas

This rental exceeded our expectations. The location was perfect - free parking, walking distance to downtown, and right above an incredible restaurant and art gallery! The rental itself was absolutely superb. The charm, amenities, overall size, and upgraded bathroom were all excellent as well. The renters went above and beyond to make sure our stay was perfect and we really enjoyed meeting them. We will definitely be returning to this property in the future.

1 Week in Jim Thorpe

My wife and I stayed at the Loft for a week while visiting Jim Thorpe. Great location and accommodations. Very clean and well kept. Vic and Joan have put a lot of resources into the property and it shows. We had dinner downstairs one night at Café Arielle. and it was fabulous. A small, very quaint venue and the staff was great and made us feel welcomed. If you are lucky enough you will meet Einstein the little dog. He's friendly and great to be around.

The loft is awesome- they were a little tense about parking because they had a party at the cafe- and the party was loud, but they shut it down early. The art is amazing, the loft spacious and the bathroom was super cool!

The Most Pleasant Surprise

What started as a search for a place "just to stay" for a last-minute Birthday getaway to explore downtown Jim Thorpe became the main attraction. Joan and Victor have one of the most unique and amazing properties we've ever stayed in. The Loft was outstanding. High end finishes and amazing detail and character. Cafe Arielle was tremendous with delicious food and cocktails. Victor's Art Gallery and Museum was absolutely stunning. I'm no art buff but I absolutely couldn't take my eyes off of his amazing work. The best part (pure dumb luck on our part) is the night we arrived, Joan and Victor were hosting a Jazz performance by an amazing (and apparantly Grammy nominated) trio of musicians in their intimate performance space. Joan and Victor's passion for what they do is infectious and we're so glad we had the chance to meet them. It all led to a weekend we'll never forget, and we can't wait to go back to visit them again!

A Welcoming Loft Retreat

This property was extremely spacious with the beauty of natural light streaming into the kitchen and living space. It had wonderful updates in the kitchen and bath. Overall, this loft apartment was very welcoming and relaxing. The host and her family, as well as the on-site cafe, art museum, and jazz venue were all wonderful and added much enjoyment to our stay!

Peaceful getaway

So happy to have found this spacious loft for our family of 4 plus 4 legged family member. Loft is located uphill from many of Jim Thorpe's shops and restaurants. Made walking down to Ma's Crepes and Cakes justifiable. It was also located closer to Mauch Chaunk Lake just a few miles further uphill. With so many outdoor activities to do in town it was nice to have such a peaceful place to return. Kitchen was a joy to use, lighting throughout loft was something I found myself appreciating during our stay. Though we usually stay at rentals with 2 bathrooms. This 1 bathroom loft, didn't present a problem for us. Pictures of bathroom didn't do it justice. Heated towel rack was an added bonus. Joan was a perfect host and we appreciated her willingness to let us explore the museum downstairs during our stay. We would love to return during cooler weather months.

About the host

Hosted by Joan Morykin

Host profile image
I am an avid runner and cyclist and the mother of two young children. My husband is an artist who also has his studio in the building where we also run an art gallery and event venue space.

Why they chose this property

I first visited Jim Thorpe on a weekend getaway from New York City in 1998 and immediately fell in love with the town - its proximity to New York and Philadelphia was perfect for a weekend retreat and I bought a small weekend house. A number of years later, my artist husband was looking for studio space and we purchased a 15,000 sq. ft. former wireworks factory and spent six years fixing up the building. As an avid runner, the beautiful mountain trails still hold a fascination for me every time I go out. This town is perfect to raise a family - there is an old-fashioned candy store, a classic 5&10 and easy access to the Lehigh River and a recreational lake park, skiing and cycling.

What makes this property unique

Outdoor lovers can access an extensive trail system connecting a quarter-mile from the loft to enjoy bicycling, running, hiking, or cross-country skiing. The nearby Lehigh River also provides access for whitewater rafting, kayaking, and fishing through a number of outfitters. Eclectic shops, museums, and the Mauch Chunk Opera House are all within walking distance from the property. Other nearby activities include swimming, fishing, and boating at the beautiful Mauch Chunk Lake Park. During each season, visitors can enjoy a number of the annual festivals including the Fall Foliage Weekends, Jim Thorpe Birthday Celebration, Earth Day, Olde Time Christmas, Winterfest, and the Burlesque Festival.
