Three New Businesses Open for 2013 Trail Season

May 30, 2013

Bright Morning Bed & Breakfast has expanded to be the perfect resting place for travelers and vacationers. Be one of the first to stay at their new guesthouse, The Annex Inn. The two guesthouses, located directly across from the Great Allegheny Passage Trailhead in West Newton, PA, offer cozy, quaint rooms that are individually decorated and designed with luxury bathrooms. Just outside their front door, guests can ride or walk on the trail and fish along the Youghiogheny River.

The Trailside

A long time borrower of The Progress Fund, The Trailside, has recently added a six pack shop and expanded their restaurant’s indoor seating area. Located at the Trailhead in West Newton, PA, it’s the perfect place to stop in for a cold one after a long, hot ride. We previously provided financing for their bar, patio, and porch.

Yough Riverhouse

Plan to stay at the Yough Riverhouse the next time you visit Confluence, PA. This newly renovated guest house offers the ideal vacation retreat with its private location along the Youghiogheny River within walking distance of the GAP, town, and nearby rivers.
