Our stay was five stars from start to finish! Not only was the home stunningly beautiful, steeped in rich history, our gracious host, Michael was a delight! His depth of knowledge of the area and its unique background was impressive. Being that I’m a history fantastic, my thirst for information was certainly quenched. We stayed in the Ellen Room- it was perfection. Every little detail was considered. The breakfast in the morning was amazing - a fine dining experience with a comfortable, low-key vibe. We will certainly be back. If you get an opportunity to visit this iconic location in Jim Thorpe, I highly recommend it. You won’t regret it!

The Dolon House is a beautiful property with an incredible location in downtown Jim Thorpe. The property owners Michael and Jeffri (and Pearl) made the stay feel like a home away from home. If there was a higher recommendation that I could give I would!

Exceptional find in Jim Thorpe.
The Dolan House is a unique find in Jim Thorpe. The house is full of character and is exceptionally well maintained. Our room was well decorated and comfortable. The dedicated bath facility was newly renovated and contemporary with character. Breakfast was a special experience and the personality, knowdge, and hospitality of Michael and Jerrri makes the experience just that more special.

The House and its contents are just so beautifully done. Lots to look at and explore. So much history in the area and the owners are very knowledgeable. The mountain nestled town is charming in every way. Will go back in a heartbeat to unfurl it’s rich history.

Usually when I go for a Bed and Breakfast, I'm thinking more about the bed than the breakfast, so this place was a total revelation. The "bed" portion was certainly great, and Michael and Jeffrey are consummate hosts in all respects, but the breakfast is what sets the place apart. Everything is cooked fresh from the morning haul from local farms and butchers, so each dish is both a culinary delight and an education about surrounding area. You'll learn about the best things to do in Jim Thorpe, the best places to hike, and the most interesting stories about the town, not to mention, all under the roof of one of the town's many historic houses.
