This adorable cottage provided the perfect setting for a reunion seven high school friends! The surroundings are beautiful, and there are plenty of lovely indoor and outdoor spaces to gather. We particularly enjoyed the terrace by the stream and the firepit. Kitchen had everything we needed to cook full meals and the beds were comfortable. We thoroughly enjoyed our stay!Note that the owners have a very detailed list of rules and check in/ check out procedures. This is how they keep the place in great shape, but be prepared.

I dreamed about booking this place for years before the trip. It was even more wonderful than I imagined. The setting is incomparable and the comfort far above the many places I have rented before. Everyone commented on how completely stocked the kitchen was. We were delighted by the space and the place. I’ve already booked to come again.

Wonderful house in a beautiful setting! They really did think of everything, including extra blankets in case it got chilly. We were in town for a girls weekend and had everything we needed. The kitchen was well stocked with plates and pots pans for easy breakfast prep. We enjoyed discovering Ligonier and stopped at the Compass Inn Museum for an excellent tour. Would definitely start again.

This was our second stay at the Fox Haven Cottage. We love it so much that it has become an annual family weekend, and we have already booked for 2026. The cottage is in the perfect location, nestled among the trees offering privacy and tranquility. The interior offers plenty of space for relaxing, cooking, dining and sleeping, but we enjoy most of our time outdoors sitting around the firepit listening to the babbling stream that passes through the property. It lives up to its name and is truly a haven where you can disconnect from the city and reconnect with nature.

We could not be more pleased to have stayed at this location for our multigenerational family vacation. It was beautiful, quaint and cozy and had everything we needed. The location was perfect!

This property was wonderful! What a view! The interior was pleasing to the eye, well designed spaces, and attention has been paid to detail, making this house very comfortable. The kitchen was well organized and had everything we needed. Loved the number of tables and seating areas! Our grandchildren spent much time in the creek! And we were so close to so many different things to see and do. We immersed the children in history at the Compass Inn and Fort Ligonier. We added a trip to the Ligonier library, Kentuck Knob, and The Lincoln Highway Experience. We enjoyed it all! Thank you for sharing this house! We would love to come back!

This is a clean, charming and well-designed spot that has all you'd want for an accessible getaway. It has wonderful proximity to Ligonier and the outdoors. The interior view of the adjacent stream and the outdoor space are transportive. We'd be happy to spend more time relaxing here.

Beautiful!

The adults kept repeating, “Perfect!” The grandchildren want to LIVE at Fox Haven. The house was clean and cozy. We were celebrating Easter and a birthday, and the kitchen had everything we needed for our feasts. When we insisted that the kids come inside, they appreciated the selection of games and puzzles. But the highlights by far were outside - the creek, the woods, the firepit! Absolutely beautiful and SO MUCH fun!

Great scenery in a wonderfully restored home.

We've stayed in this house several times, and it always makes for a relaxing getaway in a quiet creekside setting. It's also relatively close to downtown Ligonier, which has several different restaurants to scope out if you're willing to drive a little. I really appreciate that the space has been updated and nicely decorated while still maintaining much of the character of an older structure. A highly recommended stay.

Cozy Cabin Retreat with Scenic Views and Family-Friendly Charm!

We had a wonderful stay at this cabin! It was conveniently located and had a fantastic layout, perfect for our large family gathering of nine. The space was comfortable and well-suited to our needs.Although the stream was frozen during our visit, we could easily imagine how enjoyable it would be in nicer weather. We’re already planning to book again during another season to fully enjoy the outdoor space. That said, we still made use of the outdoor fireplace on our last night, which was a cozy highlight. While there’s also an indoor fireplace available, we didn’t use it as I don’t usually feel comfortable using someone else’s fireplace.One of the unexpected joys was watching deer from the kitchen window as they wandered along the hillside—a peaceful and beautiful sight that added to the charm of our stay.During our visit, we also enjoyed the Ice Festival in town, which was a fun experience. We dined at Unity Brewery and Carol & Dave’s Roadhouse—both had great food at reasonable prices.Overall, this cabin made for a memorable getaway, and we look forward to returning!
