The pictures on the website do not do this place justice. Some of my favorite things about our visit: the quiet, the walking trails, the birds, the comfy bed, the books, the attention paid to small details.

Jane and Craig have done an exceptional job of providing homes for others, like us, to enjoy nature at its best on their 55-acre estate in the heart of northeast Texas woodlands' rolling hills. If you are blessed to stay in one of their units, you will be amazed at the freedom and comfort you will experience in this quiet, peaceful nature preserve. The Foxes go out of their way to assure that you feel at home, providing far more than one would expect in extras, among a few of these are books, outside grills, picnic tables, sitting areas (including rocking chairs), fresh fruit and home-baked gourmet breads. But if you need hustle & bustle and bright city lights, you will not find them here; you will, however, find charm and a variety of activities/restaurants with excellent food in nearby Palestine and Rusk. We will go back

It was the first time to visit the Fox Meadows. We enjoyed it from the moment we pull through the gate. The cabin was a great escape from the busy world. Enjoyed sitting on the front porch and listen to the birds sing in the morning. We enjoyed walking the nature trails. The home made bread and fresh fruit was very nice to wake up to. Next time we will be sure to bring the fishing gear. Also want to be able to use the fire place. Thanks again for everything.

We stayed at many B & B's and found this to be one of the very best. Even tho' the guest home is fairly new, there were several things done to make it seem "old inn", especially in the bedroom. We were impressed with the quietness, the effort to keep nature at it's best & yet have a very comfortable place. Jane & Craig thought of everything to make our stay pleasant and a great value. Excellent! Mary & Bud

My husband surprised me with a getaway mini vacation for Valentine's Day and my birthday. We had never stayed at a bed and breakfast before and really had no idea what to expect. From the moment we got there, it felt like home! The cabin was so comfortable and had everything we could possibly want! The breads that Jane made were absolutely fantastic! I cant say enough wonderful things about this place. We throughly enjoyed our stay and are looking forward to going back soon. Jane really made our stay welcoming and inviting.

Jan was incredibly friendly and did everything possible to make our stay wonderful. It was a great place for the kids to play both indoors and out. The grounds are beautiful and the homes offered us a great night sleep. The homemade bread was a nice delight to wake up to. We are already planning a trip back.

Fox Meadows met our need for having a place that was away from the city, but not too far to drive. It was so peaceful and very quiet.

If you're a nature lover come here. You hear and see the birds/animals, walk or run on 3.5 miles of well kept trails, see wildlife, enjoy quiet solitude, see beautiful sunrises...room is like a small apartment, about 550 sq. ft, very roomy, neat; fresh breakfast foods to eat on your own schedule (not by a certain time of the morning...that's what we liked). A refreshing get away from it all...you get so much more than a regular B&B, more space, more privacy, more to explore.

This was a wonderful mini-vacation for us. Well worth the drive from Houston, even at $4 a gallon gasoline. The peaceful, quiet evenings...with enjoyable night sounds and soothing breezes was beyond our expectation. Fishing at the lake has renewed an old pleasure for my husband and a new experience for me. What fun! The dog-trot design of the house brought back memories of old family who actually lived in an original one in East Texas. One of the nicest features is that we were able to share our vacation time with our best friends, who had the house opposite ours, right across the breezeway....together but separate! We will definately be back, probably in the fall to enjoy the cooler weather and the autumn foliage on the many different trees. Thanks, Jane and Craig Fox for a marvelous time.

We have never had a more perfect weekend getaway retreat! Beautiful surroundings, adorable “dog-run cabin,” the friendliest hostess, quiet serenity, gorgeous walking trails… We can’t say enough about it. Oh yes, the wood burning fireplace was hot!

Fox Meadows has pretty and thoughtfully laid out rooms, with all sorts of sweet extras. They are on a nature preserve, and have a vulture family nesting there. The owners are nice. My only complaint would be that they are somewhat new age- from a reincarnation quote on the bedroom wall to the choice of books in the rooms. For many people this won't matter, but it did make us feel a little uncomfortable.

Review Fox Meadows, Palestine, TX

Photo Album

The living area reflects the charm of the original Texas dogtrot style home with all of today’s modern conveniences. The kitchen is fully appointed with refrigerator / icemaker, oven, microwave and everything needed for a cozy cook-in meal.Throughout the house all cabinets and furniture were built from wood rescued from a home circa 1925 located on the property.  Each piece demonstrates the craft of the artisans who spent hours giving the wood new life.
Fox Meadows is located in the highest area of Anderson County.  The rolling hills provide scenic views from the front porch.Lake Lil is our 5-acre lake that provides a home for our ducks.  It offers you a picnic area, catch and release fishing and time for quiet reflection.
