“A work in progress”
3 of 5 stars Reviewed 9 October 2007
2
people found this review helpful

The rooms on the third floor are very attractive, rich colors, and fine bedding- very comfortable. However, there are no TVs, and no alarm clocks, which is nice if you are desiring to lose track of time and days, but makes getting up in the morning a guessing game. The jazz club was hopping, and to our delight, smoke-free. We thoroughly enjoyed sitting on the porch in the evenings, but not during the day when the road is very busy and full of noisy motorcycles. We were disappointed by the inflexible breakfast time- 9-10:30, which we considered late, considering we went to the Poconos to enjoy the outdoors, and had activities planned for our mornings. Overall, it was a pleasant, but average stay.

“Quaint and getting fixed up”
4 of 5 stars Reviewed 1 October 2007

The Deer Head Inn is an old inn built circa 1853. It's a beautiful old house that the new owners are renovating slowly but surely. The bathrooms are brand new & clean. The rooms are beautifully decorated with antique furnishings. Breakfast was light and yummy made up of breads, spreads, cereal, fruit ,yogurt, coffee and juice. Nothing fancy, but quick & delicious which was perfect for us. Part of our group went to the jazz club at night, grabbed a bite to eat and had a good time. They really enjoyed the music. Meanwhile we sat on the veranda and listens above the club. I would love to go back when all the updating is finished.

  • Liked — friendly service and coziness of rooms
  • Disliked — crooked floor, although entertaining

“Great Jazz Club - Deer Head Inn”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed 24 July 2006
5
people found this review helpful

One of the oldest Jazz Clubs in the Northeast, since 1953, lived in PA for a number of years did not know it was there. Atmosphere is fantastic, attracts some great Jazz Musicians. Food and service is very good and they don't rush you out after your done eating, so you can continue listening to the music as long as you want from your seats. Newly installed air conditioning and the inside is smoke free. Recently bought by new management who are refreshing the place.

Stayed June 2006
