This is the perfect opportunity for a devoted family enterprise and could be very profitable under that situation.  The 16 rooms are rented more than ever due to all of the activities in the area, NASCAR, and the increased city population which brings in friends and relatives who are visiting.  The owners had plans to add a banquet hall, larger kitchen and six additional rooms and invested $15,000 in plans and blueprints which were submitted to the township in 2004, unfortunately one of the owners lost his home to a devastating fire the same year and they never went through with the project.  All the plans are included in the sale and there is a real need for a large banquet hall in this area since local residents only have local fire halls to use for such events as weddings, etc.  There are 7 roadway signs or billboards included as well as a website with online room booking which can be visited at www.hoteljonas.com - member of the Better Business Bureau, Pocono Chamber of Commerce, Jim Thorpe/Penn/Kidder Chamber of Commerce and Pocono Mountains Visitor Bureau.  Additional pictures can be seen on the website     There is so much included in this property that it would take up too much space in this ad, please call the owner for all the information.  This an excellent opportunity to pick up this beautiful money making property which will be gone quickly since the seller is very motivated, don't let it get away!  Interested parties only please.  Oh did I say the building is haunted?  The owner can not confirm this he can only repeat what he has heard from many employees and customers.
