I got the chance to visit this magical site, the 500 year old Chinkapin
Oak, know locally as the Sacred Oak. It's on private property in the Oley valley. The owners open it up to visit twice a year, the next time being June 4th 2016. It is amazing to see, the trunk is 19 ft around and there is a marker in front dedicating the tree. It was a beautiful October day, and perfect for viewing this wonder. I must have taken 300 pictures.

Wind Creek Bethlehem

10/10 Excellent

"Everything was excellent. I was clean. Staff was helpful."

Comfort Inn & Suites

10/10 Excellent

"I absolutely love this hotel. Comfort Suites Bethlehem is honestly one of the best places I’ve stayed in the Lehigh Valley area. The King Suite with a balcony felt more like a small apartment than a hotel room — spacious, comfortable, and perfect for relaxing. It really gave me that home-away-from-home feeling. The room layout is fantastic: • comfortable bed • clean, roomy bathroom • great shower pressure • plenty of space to move around • everything in the room works exactly the way it should They also provide shampoo, conditioner, and body wash, and the quality is much better than what most hotels offer at this price point. The breakfast is also excellent — fully stocked, fresh, and better than you’d expect from a typical continental setup. Every time I’ve stayed, they’ve kept the area clean, organized, and welcoming. The hotel itself is quiet, the balcony is a great touch, and overall the whole property feels safe and well-maintained. My only complaint is the key cards. They sometimes deactivate on their own, which means going back down to the front desk to get them reactivated. They can also stop working around 10:30 a.m. before checkout, so just be mindful of that. It’s a small inconvenience, but definitely something the hotel could improve. Other than that, my stay was fantastic, and I’ve come back multiple times — I even began using Choice Hotels more because of how much I enjoyed this location. Highly recommend. I will absolutely stay here again."
