Our Cabins... Your Escape! Unplug & recharge in our modern, family-friendly ‘Bearly Awake’ cabin located in the heart of the PA Wilds, along the Clarion River, and minutes from East Branch Lake. The perfect getaway for out-of-town guests or locals looking to go off-the-grid. The cabin sits in a serene setting, yet is located near a variety of restaurants, microbreweries, wineries, shopping, and grocery stores. Hop in a kayak, canoe, or tube and head down the river to The Dam Inn for great food, drinks, and entertainment or Bendigo State Park for swimming in their in-ground pool. The fun doesn’t stop there. Take a short drive to East Branch Lake for more fishing and boating. Don’t want to leave the cabin… no problem. There’s direct river access to go fishing and swimming and plenty of wooded area and hills to take a leisurely stroll or hike. Enjoy days and evenings on the patio, alongside the fire pit roasting hot dogs and making smores or cooking out on the gas grill. The possibilities are endless! And make sure to sign our guest book before you leave.
