THE LODGE
Nestled beside a running stream, this family owned and operated 1831 colonial mansion is located only 60 minutes from New York City in the scenic Pochuck Valley, the heart of the Skylands. Our exquisite three-level home features wrap around porches and awe-inspiring views of the countryside. Fox & Bear Lodge is comprised of 8 lush guest rooms, painstakingly restored to preserve the original character of the house, while at the same time delivering modern upgrades designed for our guests' comfort. We've infused it all with a sense of intimacy and warm personality, honoring the buildings' solid bones and graceful architecture with timeless design.
​
All rooms at Fox & Bear Lodge have their own private en-suite bathrooms. All stays include a continental breakfast with most of the items you find being made in-house or coming from no more than 50 miles away. Whether you enjoy it leisurely in one of our many common areas, or on the trail before a hike (grab 'n go bags available), you will start your day off ready for whatever should come your way.
We LOVE well-behaved dogs (2 max), so feel welcome to bring them along for your getaway! If your dog is a bit on the larger side, we will review those requests on a case to case basis. We do charge an additional fee of $100/stay to help cover the costs of cleaning. We also ask that pups joining the trip are quiet and comfortable while unaccompanied in your room while you are out, so as not to disturb other guests. Please let us know at the time of booking if you plan to bring your furry friend along.

FROM OUR GUESTS
"The Fox & Bear Lodge is a fantastic place to stay! It's close to the Appalachian Trail and beautiful farmland and wetland reserves in the area. The rooms are beautiful, clean and comfortable. Dearrick and Brant are helpful and work to accommodate any guest needs. The lodge has a wrap around porch for enjoying coffee, tea or cocktails, and there is a campfire for s'mores in the evenings! I highly recommend this lodge!!! They will be opening a coffee shop there soon. We had a wonderful visit and will definitely return!"
