Bearly Awake cabin- family-friendly, riverfront & minutes from East Branch Lake.

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.

Perfect Bride and Groom Cabin!

We used both cabins as a space for us to stay overnight and get ready for our wedding day at the Dam Inn! One cabin we used for the bride and bridesmaids to get ready and the other we used for the groom and groomsmen!

Nice location

The cabins are very nice. It is very difficult to sleep 9 people with the layout. The bunk beds are very small and do not fit two adults very comfortable.

Beautiful Cabins

We absolutely loved staying in these cabins! They were beautiful inside, the beds were comfortable, the space clean and the kitchen was well stocked. The access to the river was perfect for kayaking and tubing. The fire pit and pavilion were situated perfectly for spending time with family in the evening or having a peaceful cup of coffee in the morning. Many of us are local to the area, but this felt like a true vacation destination even though we were just a short drive from home. We really enjoyed our weekend here and are already planning our next trip!

Amazing place!

We were in town for a family reunion about a mile away and this cabin was absolutely perfect! Not only is in spectacular shape, the outdoor area is peaceful and so fun. Brandon was fantastic and I could not recommend this place more. We will absolutely be back every year for the family reunion (and maybe even another time too)!

Right on the River

We have been visiting this area to fish for years. When we spotted these new cabins in the spring, we knew we wanted to stay here! Everything is new and the location cannot be beat! Easy access to the East Branch of the Clarion River. If you're not in the mood to cook, it is a short drive to The Dam Inn. Bendigo State Park is less than 3 miles away or take a short drive to East Branch Dam and Lake. Of course, I wouldn't blame you if you never left the cabin...the view from the cabin and fire pit can't be beat! We saw an otter swim up the river both mornings we were there. I cannot say enough good things about this property! We will be back!

Perfect Venue and Accommodations!

We hosted a birthday party with a large group of people, including lots of young children, and this venue is absolutely perfect for everyone to enjoy. The cabins were gorgeous, very clean, spacious and easily usable for people of all ages. Highly recommended checking this place out!! We will be back!

Host profile image
Family owned and operated by two brothers and their wives. We all live in Ridgway with our families and have all our lives. Combined we have six kids, all around the same age who are fortunate to grow up together. We are also very fortunate to live in the same town as the rest of our family. Each of us four bring something unique to this, which makes it all the more special. And we are so happy we get to share that with all of you. We hope you enjoy your stay as much as we enjoy being able to offer this amazing place, in an even better location, to you and your friends and families. And remember... Our Cabins... Your Escape!

Why they chose this property

This location is secluded yet just close enough to so many one-of-a-kind amenities, most that are locally owned and operated. We grew up coming to this area, and still come here to this day. We love it. Our kids love it. Our family and friends love it. And so will you! There is something very special about small towns and we wanted to offer a glimpse into that life to our guests. Whether you are local and just need a quiet escape for a few days or have never been to our rural area before and wanted to experience it and all it has to offer for the first time, you will not be disappointed! And we hope that after your stay, it won't be your last.

What makes this property unique

Our cabin is perfectly situated on the bank of the Clarion River, where you can hear the calming sound of the water run by all day and all night, and the delightful, soothing sound of the Peepers at night. You're walking distance from an amazing restaurant with great food, drinks and entertainment, and just a short drive to any surrounding local town. The possibilities here are endless! We truly hope you enjoy your time here and will continue to come back for years to come.
