Very good and spacy room with great lake view. Fantastic. The owners are so kind. I booked the wrong dates and only realized on the day, they were kind enough to correct it and arrange a better room for me on those dates. Appreciate it.

Cozy Balcony Room
Nice cozy hotel room with a balcony, comfy bed, and a gorgeous view of the lake! Room and amenities were a little outdated but that is what you get with lakeside/seasonal rentals. It was well worth the price and view. We will be keeping this place in mind for next time.

Checks all the boxes
Ours was a small cottage, we loved it! Nice quality linens, TV, A/C, heat, comfortable bed, a well-maintained pool. Also my husband could smoke on the porch. Cabins are on a hill so you have a beautiful view of the lake. Anything you need within walking distance.

Having been to tbis area a lot over my lifetime, I had never stayed at the Half Moon. We were very happy with it. I know its been there for years so expected a more rustic feel but the cottage had been uodated and it was very comfortable. The view is the best and watching the MS Mount Washington going out on her cruises was awesome. We will come stay here again for sure.
