Fox Den is by far our favorite place to stay on Cranberry. It is an ideal set-up for large or multiple families with kids, lots of bedrooms with a variety of sleeping arrangements...the separate play room is perfect and you can't beat the view from the boathouse! The house is always well cleaned and appointed with everything you need for a week on the lake. The dock easily handles our 23 ft tritoon and there is a great swimming area as well. Hosts are very attentive and respond to any issues quickly! See you next year!!

The home was beautiful! There was plenty of space for my family of 9. And the kitchen was stocked with everything you would need minus the food - tableware, pans/pots, coffee machine, and many other gadgets. My family really enjoyed all of the water toys. And the lake was pristine - you could see down to your toes. The separate cottage was used daily by the kids as a getaway from the parents. It was a super relaxing week for all.

The Home is amazing! The pictures of this house were great but didn't do it justice! Clean, lots of space, and everything you could ever want through out the whole house. The large windows on the lake side of the house was such a treat! Sunrise, moonrise, shimmering water, or fog coming from the water... the view is always changing and always mesmerizing. The adjacent cottage was a fun place to play games and hang out in, we used it used daily. The deck over the boat house was the favorite place every morning for sitting and looking out over the lake with a cup of coffee. Our family with 6 adults and 5 grandchildren had plenty of room. We have rented vacation homes in 11 different states and this home is at the top of the list! What to do? The house comes with kayaks and a canoe. We rafted on the Hudson, fished, rented a pontoon boat and docked it right there at the house. Golfed, visited The Wild Center, and toured some waterfalls. We watched a few movies and played lots of card and board games. Best of all, we made some great memories that keep our family cemented together. David, the owner was very friendly and helpful in making our stay so enjoyable. He is easy to talk to and reach if needed. I highly recommend this home for your vacation!

This house was perfect for our family get-together. The house is right on the water with 2 decks from which we enjoyed coffee each morning and stargazed at night (easy to see the Milky Way!). We used the kayaks and canoe quite a bit exploring the lake, and having the swimming platform made swimming more fun and safe with the kids. The kids also kept busy with the pool and ping pong table. The kitchen is very well equipped and we appreciated having a dinning table that fit all 8 of us. The lake shoreline is 75% undeveloped and gets very little traffic, so on weekdays it often feels like you have the lake all to yourself. The house feels like luxury in a rustic setting-we loved it!

This rental is immaculate and modern very new and in great shape. We had a party of 8 and never felt cramped it definitely boasts plenty of room inside the house and the cottage with pool table really tops off this spacious retreat no problem with accommodations for 12. The rooms have great beds and linens. The bathrooms were stocked with shampoo, conditioner and soap if needed. The washer and dryer looks brand new front loaders so a nice perk for longer stays. Kitchen is huge with an island great for team cooking and company. Had just about every utensil, pots and pans glassware you could possibly need during a stay. We spent a couple mornings enjoying the boat garage deck it’s right on the water with great views and perfect for morning coffee or afternoon sun bathing. We flew over from Alaska for our daughters graduation and looking to spend a few days as a family relaxing before life gets in the way. This was the right spot for us. The only negative I can say about the whole stay at the Fox Den was the wind was up the 3 days we were there so we didn’t get to enjoy the kayaks and canoes that are provided by the owner. The owners left us a nice LL bean tote bag to take as a souvenir that has Fox Den embroidered on it also. So if your looking for peace and quiet and getaway from the hustle and bustle of life this place has it all.

David and his family allowed us to rent at the last minute after our planned reservation got double booked. It was a blessing in disguise. The house is beautiful, clean and well stocked with everything you need in a quiet location. The house was perfect for our group of 9. My family enjoyed the cottage play room. It allowed us to play games while the kids were sleeping in the house. The lake was great for ice fishing and snowmobiling. We enjoyed sledding down the driveway and having a winter campfire. David was attentive to our questions and needs throughout the vacation. Would definitely recommend staying here to any family looking for a perfect vacation.
