Crazy Fox Lodge

As you approach Crazy Fox Lodge, the surrounding trees seem to whisper, “welcome home.” Nestled within its natural setting, the lodge immediately conveys a sense of peace and retreat. Inside, the beautifully appointed kitchen—with exposed beams, warm wood finishes, and thoughtful design—offers a space that is both functional and inviting. Yet the stunning outdoor dining area, with breathtaking views of the landscape, may be the only thing that tempts you to step away from this culinary haven.

Modern Rustic Retreat

The lodge is designed to accommodate every member of the family. Children can enjoy their own dedicated playroom, giving them a space to explore and have fun, while adults can retreat to the serene master bedroom. The opulent master bath provides a private escape, blending luxury and comfort with natural materials and finishes that echo the surrounding environment.
Crazy Fox Lodge effortlessly combines style, function, and relaxation. From its warm, inviting interiors to its thoughtfully designed outdoor spaces, every detail supports a modern rustic lifestyle. The home is truly a sanctuary, offering everything a homeowner could dream of—comfort, beauty, and a deep connection to the natural setting that surrounds it.

Over the past 30 years, we have built three houses. This experience with Modern Rustic Homes, by far, has been the most pleasant and rewarding. From day one, our contact with Michael Grant has been a journey that any homeowner would relish. If we could script a perfect real estate experience, this would be it. Our intuition, after speaking with Michael for the first time, was…here is a trustworthy, meticulous and professional designer and builder. While Michael provided real estate, design and architectural expertise, his team also included the builder, Joe Dixon. Without exception, at all levels, everyone we came in contact with (carpenters, plumber, cabinetmaker, painter, etc.) was professional, courteous and skilled and cared deeply about the quality of their work. To this day, 2 years after completion, we are still in contact with Michael and his team. They promptly return phone calls and follow up on any questions or requests that we have. I am proud to say that not only did we end up with a spectacular home, but we also ended up with true lifelong friends.
