A very nice place. As of Dec 2023 some small improvements underway that don’t interfere. Very responsive host. Nearby lake and woods but not on the lake or in the woods. In a small neighborhood of similar homes.

We loved the cabin! Plenty of sleeping space. The fireplace was amazing! I love a real wood burning fireplace. We didn’t end up using the outdoor firepit, but I’m sure we would have really enjoyed it! The bathtub was cute but I wish there was a way for it to be a second shower. One shower was tough with 6 women! But we made do. I would venture to say that we will be back someday! The drive to Galena is pretty quick. All in all, loved it!

We enjoyed our time at the cabin! Very cozy and comfortable. The views off the porch are amazing. We enjoyed drinking coffee out on the porch each morning. We have been coming to Apple canyon lake for years, it’s always a great time!

We love staying here for our family vacation! The location is beautiful and not far from the pool! We love the front porch, just sitting and enjoying the view. This year, the wasps were a bit of a problem, but nothing wasp spray didn't take care of. The remodeled basement was done very nice! We will definitely be coming back next year! :)

This is the 2nd time we have stayed at this location and love it. While my family has a summer home in apple canyon, we are too large of a crowd to all stay in one house. This was perfect location, close to the trails so we can take the carts to and from houses. The downstairs is now complete with a tv room and separate bedroom. This was perfect for those who like it cooler than others in the house. There is also a room on the main floor which was great for my mother and didn't have to walk all the stairs. We will be coming back again, I am sure.

My family of adults and small children enjoyed our stay at the cabin. This area of Illinois is beautiful countryside all around. The veiws from the cabin were beautiful. We enjoyed the nearby Apple Canyon State Park and the included access to the pool as well. With the baby in our group we didnt access the lake, but it looked to be a well-kept lake with lots of water activites. The pool and lake access are a short 10 min drive from the cabin. The cabin itself was clean and had everything we needed. We enjoyed the firepit one night as well. Would definitely consider staying again. We didnt realize there were neighbors very close by, but they were all very quiet and we didnt really see them.

The log cabin was exactly as advertised. The beds & pillows were comfortable and the host did not skimp on towels or blankets. The kitchen had everything we needed. All instructions were clearly stated. I will not hesitate to stay at Foxridge again!

Absolutely fabulous location and spacious house with many rooms. The living room was absolutely enormous and plenty of room for all of us to hang out. Would definitely love to come here again in the summer with such a huge back yard!

Very nice place. Stayed there three times now and will be back next year. Exactly as advertised. Nice cottage, a lot of open room, not a ton of frills (albeit we stay there in the winter) which is great if you're not planning on using them, like us. So we don't feel we're paying a lot for things we don't or won't use. Perfect place if you want an open family room style home so that everyone is together.
Thanks again and see you next February.

Enjoyed our stay very much. Little bit out further from Galena than we expected but we made it all work. Would come back for sure. The outside would have given me pause if someone hadn’t mentioned it in their review. Inside was great except in need of furniture dusting & the floors swept..kitchens and bathrooms were perfect..
