About this property
Bear Lodge: Romantic Tiny Cabin Near Cook Forest + Luxury Queen Bed
Escape to Bear Lodge, a cozy tiny cabin designed as a romantic getaway in the Pennsylvania Wilds. Just minutes from Cook Forest, the Allegheny National Forest, Clarion River, and the Route 66 Rail Trail, it’s an ideal home base for couples who want a few days away together with plenty of outdoor adventure nearby.
Inside, the cabin has been refreshed with comfort in mind. The main sleeping area features a brand-new luxury 12-inch memory foam queen mattress, giving you a comfortable place to unwind after a day exploring the forest. Above it, a cozy loft with a twin-size memory foam mattress provides additional sleeping space while adding to the cabin’s unique tiny-cabin feel.
Bear Lodge is especially well suited for couples, anniversaries, birthdays, weekend escapes, and spontaneous getaways. Spend the day hiking, kayaking, fishing, hunting, exploring nearby trails, or simply slowing down and enjoying the Pennsylvania Wilds.
Important Disclaimer:
We want guests to know exactly what to expect before booking. Bear Lodge neighbors an active sawmill that operates Monday through Friday. While the mill is running, machinery and normal work noise can be heard from the cabin. If complete daytime silence is important to your stay, this may not be the right fit. We prefer to be completely upfront so there are no surprises when you arrive.
When the day winds down, come back to your own cozy cabin, settle in, and enjoy a relaxed night together away from the usual routine.

This little place was awesome! Really enjoyed the outdoor space and the fire pit. This place was perfect to stay while visiting the area. I would go there again.
Great little place. Use of space was excellent. Would have been 5 stars, hands down, if in a more secluded location. Easy access to Cooks Forest and Clear Creek State parks.
The cabin/tiny house was very cozy and clean. The owner Brittany was very nice and helpful. We had a great time visiting the kinzua bridge and hiking a couple of the trails in the area. We also had our two dogs there and they also agree with my opinion. We would recommend and revisit. Thank you.
I booked this place for my wife, 2 year old daughter, beagle, and myself for a weekend as we explored the cook forest area. It was perfect for us. Hot water, heat, privacy, a nice covered porch, fire pit, and comfy beds. And it's not just the physical things, but the customer service that make this place extra special. Brittany was in contact to make sure we were alright, and also left bags to clean up after our dog, a water dish, and a toy stuffed animal that my daughter took home with us. We will be back in the near future.
It was exactly what we needed just to get away from Erie for a little while. it was clean. Plenty of hot water. Comfortable air conditioning. amazingly comfortable mattresses.
We could not hear the Sawmill inside and even outside it sounded like a neighbor doing some work three blocks away you really can't hear it. People in the area are amazingly friendly and helpful. I'm not exaggerating when I tell you just those few short days we're so relaxing that we are starting to look for property around that area too build a cabin and move to
I decided VERY last second that I was going to surprise my son with a little adventure (less than 72 hours before arrival). Upon booking I contacted the host letting them know and asking if they could get a birthday balloon and leave it in the cabin. ABOVE AND BEYOND, the cabin was decorated, they even got him a cake and candles. The absolute best host. The cabin was immaculate, the beds beyond comfortable. Pet and kid friendly. I couldnt recommend this spot more. Its not often you find such hospitality anymore. 10/10 suggest booking, bring your family, enjoy nature- its also a great location to access Cooks Forest and Allegheny National.
Property was kept nice and clean host Brittany was wonderful had a few hiccups in the beginning but Brittany was on top of it and made our stay wonderful. We will be going back.
Very nice cozy stay. Had a few slight “kinks” but all and all was an excellent stay! Lots of open room for our trucks and trailers. Hosts were excellent and responsive. Will stay again! My dog loved it there.
Clean and convenient, great for 2-3 adults or a small family (couple with 1-2 kids).

Comfortable stay for our family, good outdoor space, well-suited for our two dogs. There were a few problems with the amenities (Wifi, AC), but the hosts were very apologetic, even offering us a free night's stay as compensation. Close to several trail heads and Cook Forest attractions
Super adorable little cottage. Would definitely stay again

Getaway weekend
We love to stay at this little spot. Even if things weren't as smooth as they could have been, we thought it worked out really well for what we were there for.

Seems like a work in progress don't think it's ready to be rented yet
Small, quaint, and quiet which is what we were hoping for. My children had a lot of fun and my dog enjoyed himself and this was his first vacation ever. Friendly people and responded rather quickly when we initiated contact.
We went away for my boyfriend’s 50th bday. Cabin was very pretty inside-all woodwork/decor. Birthday treat with candles in fridge!!! Small issue with shower faucet on our last night there & they came & fixed it right away. Communication for address & code plenty of time for our arrival. Thanked us for staying & apologetic for inconvenience of shower issue which was minor to us!!!

Nice place to relax and reconnect, host communication lacking
Brittany was very difficult to reach throughout the entire experience. For example, we received the access code 40 minutes after check in.

Where do I start showing head sprays up the wall can’t really cook there two electric burners that take 45 minutes to heat water the front door so many cracks sunlight shines in the toilet is not tight the sleeping is another thing how is two adults supposed to sleep in the bunk beds no way that place sleeps 6 the couch is falling apart the sink in the kitchen been leaking a long time and I don’t beleave the water is safe to drink we both got sick they have a a water cooler there but not in use I could go on I think that should give you a idea we left Monday evening
The day of check-in I messaged the host, Brittany, twice before check-in via vrbo asking her when to expect the door code and other information. She did not respond to either message. The check-in time, 3:00pm, rolled around and still no word from her. I tried to call the number she listed and it went to voicemail every single time. It was getting dark and we felt unsafe in the area. After hours of no communication from the host, we went home. It wasn’t until we made it home that we heard from Brittany, over six hours after the posted check-in time. It was an automated message with the check-in information and absolutely no acknowledgement or apology for sending the information so late. I tried requesting a refund from the host with no success. It has now been over a week without a response or a refund.
We didn’t actually stay at the property. Thankfully! The location was terrible, behind two dumpy looking houses off a two lane highway. The sawmill mentioned is literally right behind the shed/shack. The day we arrived there was mud and water all around the property and I cemented driveway. Upon getting to the door, the code didn’t work and there was a stream of water flowing out from under the front door (a very worn wooden door). The only way to contact the owner was via email. She responded right away and arrived to the property within 15 min. To discover a pipe in the bathroom had burst and water was running out of the “cabin”.
She offered us the next “nice” cabin next door for the night while they cleaned up the waterlogged shed, “then we could move into it” since it was what we reserved. While we appreciated the offer, there was no way we were going to stay. We declined and had yo go search for other accommodations at 5:00 pm on Thanksgiving eve. Fortunately we found an actual cabin IN Cook’s Forest that had a vacancy.
VRBO responded promptly to our distress and the owner contacted us to let us know she was processing a full refund.
The cuteness in the picture of the VRBO doesn’t really depict what the reality was that day. The location was about 10+ miles to Cook’s Forest. We thought it would be within walking distance.
The owner was gracious and tried to be helpful. We won’t consider that property in the future.
