Your stay at Van Pelt's Guest House in Jim Thorpe will transform you back in time to the days of coal miners and train barons. Tucked away and protected by the dramatic fold of several steep mountains, the town of Jim Thorpe sits quietly on the banks of the Lehigh River and looks much as it did 150 years ago, when carriages clattered down it's streets, train cars chugged along it's steel rails and barges floated down it's river.
