Warm, Beautiful, and Truly Special
Our wedding at Fox & Bear was truly unforgettable, and we can’t recommend it highly enough! From the moment we booked, Brant was communicative and incredibly supportive. He was on-site for the entire wedding weekend, handling any unexpected events (like rain!) and ensuring everything went smoothly. His attention to detail was outstanding, and we always felt confident that he had everything under control. The venue itself is breathtaking, with a warm, slightly magical atmosphere that set the perfect backdrop for our day. It felt intimate and special, and our guests, especially those who stayed for the weekend, loved every moment. They couldn’t stop talking about how wonderful the space was, and we heard so many compliments about how much fun they had. The accommodations were fantastic, making it a perfect location for a weekend celebration. A special mention goes to Janice, who prepared the breakfasts for our guests. She was incredibly warm and friendly, and her meals were delicious! It was such a lovely touch for our guests to start their mornings with a fantastic breakfast and such a welcoming atmosphere. We are so grateful to the entire Fox & Bear team for making our wedding weekend so memorable. The combination of the beautiful venue, excellent service, and incredible food truly made our day magical. We couldn’t have asked for a better place to celebrate!

An event at Fox and Bear Lodge is a dream! I had the pleasure of being the Sommelier at a Private Dinner Event Fox and Bear Lodge. The Chandelier Room is the perfect location for a private party and this birthday celebration. It provides an intimate, cozy but elevated and sophisticated atmosphere. Guests celebrated and basked in the glow of candles and the overhead chandeliers as they enjoyed their custom five course dinner with curated wine pairings The onsite team is wonderful - friendly, knowledgeable and so helpful. Working with Brant is a joy. He is focused, detail oriented and committed to giving every client and guest a fantastic, warm and memorable experience. I look forward to working there again soon. Highly recommended for any events!

Such an amazing place to start your journey! The attention to details was incredible. From the wedding to the party. Each guest was made to feel so special. The rooms were beautiful for both us and our guest. This made our event a life time experience.
Response from vendor•Oct 26, 2024Dear Renee, Thank you so much for your kind words and 5-star review! We're truly delighted to hear that you found our venue the perfect place to begin you and Kevin's journey together. Knowing that each detail made a difference, from the wedding to the party, means the world to us. Making each guest feel special is always our goal, and we're thrilled that the rooms and atmosphere contributed to such an unforgettable experience. Wishing you all the best.Perfect Place for a Smaller Fall Wedding
The Fox and Bear Lodge was the perfect venue for our wedding. Janice, who runs the inn, was an absolute delight and took wonderful care of us and our guests all weekend, with her incredible breakfasts being a standout. Jenn, the day-of coordinator, was equally amazing—organized, attentive, and ensured everything went smoothly, allowing us to enjoy our day stress-free. For context, we had 65 people at our wedding total, including us and two children. This felt like the perfect size for our group, especially given the necessity of the tent due to chilly October nights. The lodge itself is charming, with great rooms and fantastic amenities. Despite its location at the corner of two streets, we barely noticed any traffic. While nearby lodging options are limited, most of our guests were satisfied with the Quality Inn just 10 minutes away. The venue struck a perfect balance between outdoorsy and chic, offering more flexibility than other venues. Though there were some additional but reasonable fees, it was wonderful to have our rehearsal dinner, welcome drinks, and brunch all at the lodge, making it the ideal fit for our special day. We are so thankful that we decided to stay over an extra night, without any of our guests, to get to truly enjoy the lodge a bit more before checking out. We could have stayed there all week! * Photo credit: Katie Christ Photography
Response from vendor•Oct 25, 2024Dear Ashley, Thank you so much for your glowing review! We’re thrilled to hear that The Fox and Bear Lodge served as the perfect setting for your special day. Janice and Jenn will be overjoyed to know how much you appreciated their dedication—they’re truly passionate about making each celebration unforgettable, and it sounds like they made your weekend both delicious and seamless! Your description of the lodge’s charm and your kind words about the outdoor chic atmosphere really capture the spirit of what we hope every couple and guest experiences. It’s wonderful to know that the venue’s flexibility allowed you to host everything in one place, from the rehearsal dinner to brunch. And, of course, we’re so glad you took that extra night to unwind and soak in the ambiance—it’s those moments that make the memories truly special. Thank you again for choosing The Fox and Bear Lodge for your wedding. We wish you both endless happiness and would love to welcome you back anytime for an anniversary or getaway! Warmly, The Fox and Bear Lodge Team
