Deer Creek Winery: A Perfect Place for a Getaway in Clarion County

I am not sure where to even start when it comes to writing about this awesome place. Between the friendly staff and visitor, the winery, the intimate gathering areas, the musical entertainment, the great food, and the perfect guest rooms, our stay at the Inn at Deer Creek Winery was phenomenal. This stay easily one of the best that we have ever experienced in our travels. They thought of just about everything when they made this place and it really has the feel of a modern take on a traditional resort, coupled with a bed and breakfast experience. Our experience at the winery and inn was nothing short of perfect. 
The winery is centered around its intimate gathering area lounges, where musical acts perform in the largest room, complete with a small mezzanine area that you can watch performers from above while sitting on comfy sofas, lounge chairs, or at tables. The winery has speakers set up throughout the building that let you hear the music throughout the inn. While listening to the music, be sure to have a glass (or two!) of their delicious wine in hand, along with some of their delectable food. 
Their wines are tasty and unique. We generally prefer wines on the dry side, though we thought that the sweeter ones were their best. The Fawn Catawba was our favorite. Instead of being overwhelmingly sweet like most from that varietal, theirs was crisp and delicious. They also make a sparkling Niagara, something that I don't believe we have seen before. That was very good, especially with the different mixed drinks that they make.



The rooms are glorious! Perfectly appointed, modern, and cozy. All of the rooms are equipped with a fireplace, super comfortable bed, dinettes, and more. Some of the rooms are equipped with private patios and hot tub areas. We were blown away by how perfect the rooms were.

They had two different musical acts throughout the day that made such an excellent atmosphere throughout the winery. The common areas, in addition to their porch patio area and outdoor gas fire pit, were popular with the guests, and extremely relaxing to experience. 

The front porch patio area and fire place. The music emanates out and it creates a pleasant environment.

The perfect kind of place to relax, kick back, drink some wine and take in the music. Reflecting back on our time at the winery is making me want to go back.
Gary Bickerstaff was the evening's musical act. He really does a terrific job.

Here is the breakfast area. This doubles as a nice second reception area to the main room. The music emanates through the entire winery, making for a very pleasant experience.
The breakfast was top notch! I ordered the stuffed french toast and bacon. Brit ordered a breakfast flatbread with ham, egg, cheese, peppers, and onions. Both meals were fantastic, along with their coffee cake, coffee, and their specialty mimosas (we tried the peach and cranberry mimosas).


The tasting area with a great example of the comfy and relaxing sitting areas spread throughout the place. 
The shop area, along with their great selection of custom oil and vinegar mixes. They also have a large selection of sorbets and coffees. Coupled with all of their wine and food selections, this place has just about everything covered.
The lineup of live acts coming up. Additionally, they are holding Springfest, a Folk, Blues, and Bluegrass music festival, on the weekend of May 20th and 21st in their events center. In addition to live music, they frequently hold different activities and events, such as lessons in mindful meditation, painting, and more, in addition to private functions such as weddings, parties, business meetings, showers, and more. They have an outstanding and unique place here that you will certainly enjoy. 

We had a great time at this winery. It completely blew away our expectations and was unlike anything that we have ever seen before. The entire premises is relaxing, cozy, well-decorated and all around fun. It is located a short drive away from many destinations in the PA Great Outdoors Region, including beautiful Clarion County and Cook Forest State Park. The Deer Creek Winery's wines can be found at a number of the Pittsburgh region's malls and shopping areas, including the Mall at Robinson, McCandless Crossing, the Clearview Mall, and the Beaver Valley Mall. We highly recommend visiting and definitely suggest staying the night at their winery in beautiful Clarion County. It is located within two hours of most places in western and central PA, including just over 1.5 hours from Pittsburgh, making for a quick and easy getaway.
