Dear Friends,
The Storms of early October have gotten the refilling of the Lake off to a Nice
Start.  Current Reservoir Height is 42% of Maximum, up from a low of 9% in
September. 
Let it Snow! Let it Snow! Let it Snow!

The Resort is put to bed for the winter and we're ready to think about next season.

4)On November 1st, PHONE Reservations will be handled on a FIRST-COME, FIRST-SERVED
basis starting at 8AM.  PRIORITY WILL BE GIVEN TO "Live" PHONE CALLS but you can
leave a message if the line is busy.  We'll call back ASAP.

*REMEMBER!  This is ONLY A REQUEST! and you STILL MUST SPEAK TO JULIE on or after
November 1st to confirm. Many restrictions apply.

for individual stays and within 90 days for groups. See link for details:
http://moonlakeresort.com/faqs.html#oppolicies

8) PET POLICY. Mostly the same as last year. You will be asked to sign your pet(s)
in at Check-In to insure that everyone is aware of the Resort "pet policy". Please
limit dogs to 2 per cabin unless prior approval has been given. There is still NO
additional charge to bring your pet, however, excessively shedding pets may require
an extra cleaning fee. (To avoid this, bring your lint brush and sweep the cabin
thoroughly before leaving.) Review Pet Policies online prior to booking and advise
your friends and family members that are coming with you to do the same. See link
for details:

*RESPONSIBILITY, cooperation and respect will help keep Moon Lake Resort a "Pet

chuckle from a YouTube video we found and linked on the Directions Page).

While it may be in the 100's down in the lowlands, it's about 20 degrees cooler up here in the mountains.  The past couple days, we've had some nice afternoon shower cool-downs that were delightfully refreshing.  BE COOL!  Come to Moon Lake , NOW!

Every year, Julie wishes she had a crew to help take all the reservation calls that come in 
when we open for booking.
We look forward to your calls and thank you for your patience and perseverance. 
And please consider that, by the end of the day,
Julie may not LOOK like a squirrel but she sure may FEEL like a "nut".

Dear Friends, 
We hope you've been enjoying this beautiful Fall season. This year we closed the Resort on Monday, September 3rd, just after Labor Day Weekend. This earliest closure in the 17 seasons that we've been here was prompted by the Forest Service's improvement project at the Moon Lake Campground and the uncertain disruptions this might have had on our guests. 
At this moment, we are happy to report that the very capable contractors are projecting completion by the end of this month. 
(Keep fingers crossed and knock on wood!!!) 
If all goes well, we are all anticipating no significant disruptions to the 2013 camping season! 

We have to admit that 2012 was a tricky season. Rumors of closures, the actual campground closure, fire restrictions, wildfires and severe drought in the state made it a real day-to-day challenge for us. 
We again want to thank everyone that came up this year and invite all those of you that missed 2012
to come back in 2013. 
Although we closed early, we have remained on site, making improvements and repairs that we have no time for in the operating season. 
This Fall, we have improved roads and trails, painted, patched and paneled many cabins and at last, spent some time working on the Lodge living and work spaces, most notably-old, defunct cabin 6 that is now a clean and organized work space for the maintenance team. 
With these improvements, along with new floors and many new mattresses installed in Spring, 2012 
PLUS the major Campground renovation improvements--
We think it is safe to say that you'll find Moon Lake-Better Than Ever in 2013! 

PS: Just for Fun--Check out the photo of an old sign we found when re-roofing Cabin 6 (it was used as a patch for a Hole in the Roof!) 
This reminds us that folks have been enjoying Moon Lake for a long time!

Here's to another 85 or so years... See you in the Spring! 
Bill, Julie and the Moon Lake Gang
