ABOUT US
The Story Behind the Lodge
Fox and Bear Lodge didn’t always operate as a bed and breakfast. This colonial mansion in Sussex County was a private residence for many years before becoming the Apple Valley Inn and home to the Candy Apple Shoppe.

ROOMS & SUITES
Eight Rooms. Zero Compromises.
Main Floor Queen
From
$300

A ground floor ADA accessible suite. Ideal if you travel light, prefer step-free access, or like having your morning coffee close at hand.
Garden View South
From
$300
- 300 sq ft
- Sleeps 2

South-facing windows bring in sun for most of the day, with garden views that feel a world away from pavement. A bright, easy room for early risers, natural-light lovers, and anyone who likes waking up to something green.
Garden View North
From
$300
- 300 sq ft

Cooler, quieter, with softer light. On the north side of the lodge, you’ll get a shaded garden view—less direct sun, calmer, and still beautiful. A great fit if you run warm or prefer a more subdued room.
Heritage Queen
From
$200
- Sleeps 2
- 1 Queen Bed
Heritage details, done right. Original character, warm finishes, and a quieter kind of charm. Perfect for guests who love historic homes and don’t need extra square footage to feel comfortable.
Valley View South

- 1 Queen Bed
Our largest room—and the view everyone comes for. A stunning, south-facing overlook of the valley that shifts with the seasons: summer green, fall gold, winter white. If your getaway is about scenery, this is the one to book.
Valley View North
From
$300
- 325 sq ft
- Sleeps 2

Same valley, a different feeling. On the north side, you’ll find a quieter, cooler room with views that still deliver—just without the full southern sun. A great pick if you want scenery and serenity in equal measure.
