We had a wonderful time and the house was super fun. The home theater was used often during our stay. The beds were comfortable and there were games etc. We look forward to staying again

The Retreat at Bear Creek Lake was superb! The home was just as promised - clean, unique, fun, and stocked with everything you’ll need for your stay. The movie theatre was very cool! We had a group of 6 and had more than enough room - plenty of bedrooms and bathrooms. Beautiful surroundings and area. Perfect mix of seclusion and convenient access to restaurants and shopping. Highly recommend taking the short 10 minute drive to downtown Jim Thorpe - it’s a lovely, idyllic mountain town. Tons of activities and accommodations nearby. Perfect place whether you plan to stay in or get out and explore the area. Samuel was a great host - great communication, easy check in and check out, and really thought of everything! My friends and family and I will 100% visit again!

We had a great stay. The house was exactly as described. Nice, comfortable and in a very beautiful area. The theater made our rainy stay fun and cozy. Samuel was great with communication; very prompt and responsive. Looking forward to another stay in the future!

Our family decided to take a weekend trip to Jim thorpe for their Fall Festival. Our adult children and their significant others were along for the trip so we knew we needed a place with plenty of space. Samuels retreat was that and more. The movie theater was a big hit. My kids loved it so much that they are trying to talk my husband and I into creating one in our basement. The location was excellent. Remote enough to enjoy the peaceful tranquility of the surrounding, but only being a short ride to Jim Thorpe. Samuel was an excellent host. He checked in daily to see if there was anything we needed. I highly recomment Samuel's place and hope to be back sometime soon.
