A wonderful place for a weekend away

My friends and I stayed here for a quiet, Taylor Swift themed weekend. We had so much fun just hanging out in the common areas or around the fire pit outside. The house is close to town and was conveniently located. It was so easy to chat with Justin and Noelle when a question came up. We all agreed we’d love to stay here again!

Perfect Weekend Getaway!

Our family had a wonderful stay from the moment we stepped inside this lovely cottage. The interior was very clean and decorated nicely. We made full use of the kitchen for meals and enjoyed the tranquil outdoor setting with long, cozy evenings by the fire. The Pie Shoppe and The Country Cupboard are definitely worth a visit. We will definitely return to this perfect gem!

Relaxing Stay

Enjoyed this adorable cabin in the woods. The house was very clean and the grounds with the creek and mini waterfall exposed a very relaxing environment . Unfortunately it was too hot and humid to sit outside but we still enjoyed the view from the inside.

Best vacation rental ever

Fox Haven was the absolute perfect place for our stay! We were in the area for a reunion of old friends/coworkers at Linn Run State Park. The house was very clean and had everything we needed. It was neat to see the photos from before and during the renovation. The outside fire pit and creek area were enjoyed by all. We would definitely stay here again and will recommend it to others!
