This was the 2nd time staying at Moons & Loons and again didn’t disappoint! The cabin, lake, & management were awesome. The cabin was warm & inviting from the first step through the door. It was stocked with everything you could possibly need/want from the kitchen to blankets you could take outside to keep warm around the fire. Looking forward to another stay!
10.0 / 10.0Outstanding·Sep 2025
Cabin and location are beautiful and extremely peaceful. Maybe the time of year, but only ducks, loons and falling acorns making sounds. Everything we needed was there.
8.0 / 10.0Excellent·Sep 2025
The property is beautifully decorated! The kitchen was really well stocked. There were plenty of lake toys although the canoe was very tippy. It would have been nice to get the door code earlier as the cell phone service on my way there was spotty. Additionally, there is no way that eight people could stay here comfortably. The sleeping couch is the only couch and is located in the common area (i.e. there is no where to be if the couch is being used for sleeping).
10.0 / 10.0Outstanding·Aug 2025
All around 5 stars great! Ample boats, provided firewood, gas grill in good shape, games in shed, large lawn for sports, well stocked kitchen. Minor improvements: could not find more bar soaps and WiFi was wrong in welcome email (but placard next to TV was correct!). Will stay again. Thank you!
