A Jim Thorpe Visit?
My girlfriend and I would like to visit Jim Thorpe this fall to peruse the town and surrounding area. Any nice places you know of to stay for a couple of nights? We would like to be pretty comfortable. We're not "roughing-it" types  Thanks!

Here is a great place to stay, Inn at Jim Thorpe (I know lots of folks who have stayed there but I have 3 children, so it's out for me LOL):
Jim Thorpe, PA Hotel: The Inn at Jim Thorpe
From my Carbon County phone book, there are also other B & B's in that area (I don't know anyone personally who stayed at these, just thought maybe you'd like other options):
The VictoriAnn Bed and Breakfast, Rooms & Rates
Suites on Broadway
Welcome to The Parsonage Bed and Breakfast
Welcome to The Minnie Victoria
Welcome To The Harry Packer Mansion
Gilded Cupid Bed and Breakfast, Jim Thorpe, PA Pennsylvania
Angel Of The Morning Bed & Breakfast, Jim Thorpe PA, Accommodations, Lodging,
Welcome to Rendon House
There are still more, those are the ones I found websites for. Hope you have a great time in Jim Thorpe!

Here's another vote for The Inn at Jim Thorpe, which is located right on Lower Broadway in the heart of downtown. Supposedly this historic building is haunted as well, which could prove to be quite a fun experience!
