HERE WE GO AGAIN !

Yep, folks--our 20th operating season at Moon Lake is fast approaching.
The Resort will open at about Noon on Friday, May 22nd of the Memorial Day Weekend.

Reservations are filling in for the season, so, if you haven't made plans to visit the Lake yet,
you may want to start thinking about it. 

We look forward to seeing all your smiling faces again (and also, for the first time).

Enjoy the beauty of Spring.  Summer fun is on the way.   

Happy Trails, Bill and Julie

Hello, Friends
        It is with great sadness we feel compelled to share the news that this
week, Julie's Father and Mother passed away within days of each other.
Both had suffered poor health and had been under constant care for some
time.  Jim and Jeanne both passed peacefully and, with God's grace, will
be united again in the love and spirit that bound them together for 59
years.
We would ask that you keep them (and Julie) in your best thoughts and
prayers.
We would also appreciate your understanding and patience with any
Moon Lake business for a short time while we tend to our family matters.

We will be back to work as soon as we can.

        Thanks for your friendship, love and support.
        The Reardon Family

From Our Moon Lake Family to You and Yours--

We wish you great Joy and abundant Blessings in the Holidays and the New
Year ahead.

With Thanks for your love and friendship,
Bill and Julie Reardon

Hi Folks,
Happy Halloween!  
Can't believe it is almost November. Where does the time GO?!?!?!

First, we want to thank everyone who came and stayed in 2014.
We had a really great season and we hope you all enjoyed your visits.

The Resort closed mid-September and the Crew spent a few weeks doing
maintenance and improvements that will hopefully make your next visit even
better.

That brings us to... HOW AND WHEN TO MAKE CABIN RESERVATIONS FOR 2015
--Here's the Scoop...

1) 2015 Season--OPENING-Friday,May 22 -- CLOSING-Monday,September 14. (The
Weekend of September 18 & 19 is POTENTIALLY available for a Private Party
or Wedding that would book the entire Resort.)

2) NO RATE INCREASES for 2015!!  http://moonlakeresort.com/cabins.html

3) JULIE WILL START TAKING PHONE RESERVATIONS AT 8AM (MST) on
SATURDAY, NOVEMBER 15th at our Colorado number--(970)731-9906.

Reservations will be handled on a FIRST-COME, FIRST-SERVED basis.

4) PRIORITY WILL BE GIVEN TO "LIVE" PHONE CALLS but you can leave a
message if the line is busy.  We'll call back ASAP, but in some cases,
that may not be until the next day.  Keep trying to get through if you're
able.
Remember,it is always recommended to have a second choice of dates and
cabins, if possible!

5) GET A JUMP START - You can send a reservation REQUEST via our website
online "Webervations" system starting Monday, NOVEMBER 10th.
Julie will try to review these REQUESTS in advance and let you know of any
POLICY Issues that would cause rejection of your reservation.  This will
give you a chance to come up with an alternative before the November 15th
reservation opening date*.
Click on our website CHECK AVAILABILITY link:
http://www.webervations.com/magic-scripts/resbook.asp?memberid=moonlake1

*REMEMBER! This Online REQUEST IS NOT a Confirmed Reservation!!!!!! This
is ONLY A REQUEST! and you STILL MUST SPEAK TO JULIE on or after November
15th to confirm. Many restrictions apply.

6)CREDIT CARD payment* for deposit is NOW AVAILABLE AND PREFERRED for all
reservations EXCEPT larger groups.
*You MUST enter card information online to have this option.
CREDIT CARDS CANNOT BE TAKEN OVER THE PHONE for reservations more than 30
days prior to arrival.See link:
http://www.webervations.com/magic-scripts/resbook.asp?memberid=moonlake1

7) CANCELLATION POLICY is the same as last year. The minimum cancellation
charge per cabin is $50. Full forfeit still applies to reservations
cancelled within 30 days for individual stays and within 90 days for
groups. See link for details:
http://moonlakeresort.com/faqs.html#oppolicies

8) PET POLICY. You will be asked to register your pet(s)at Check-In to
insure that everyone is aware of the Resort "PET POLICY".
See link for details:
http://moonlakeresort.com/faqs.html#pets
NOTES:
Please limit dogs to 2 per cabin unless prior approval has been given.
There is still NO additional charge to bring your pet, however, if your
pet damages the cabin or leaves it excessively hairy or dirty -Repair and
Cleaning fees may be applied.
Most importantly - ALL DOGS MUST!!! BE LEASHED ON RESORT PROPERTY! IF YOU
CANNOT COMPLY WITH THE LEASH REQUIREMENT, PLEASE LEAVE THEM HOME. Voice
control or just having them near to you does not count as leashed.  We
have had more than a few complaints from neighboring guests who would
disagree with that "No Problem" attitude and/or pet.
Please Love Thy Neighbor at Moon Lake.
PLEASE Review the Pet Policy(above link) on our website prior to booking
and advise your accompanying friends and family members to do the same.
*RESPONSIBILITY, cooperation and respect will help keep Moon Lake Resort a
"Pet Friendly and Fun" place for everyone.

Thanks for your continued love or new interest in Moon Lake and the Resort.
We look forward to hearing from you soon.

 PS - if you would like a little reminder of "just how Beautiful" Moon Lake
really is, check out the attached photo of the back end of the lake taken
in September just after we closed.

Statement from Moon Lake Resort regarding 4 year old girl injured by a falling tree on Wednesday July 2, 2014.

The incident occurred approximately ¼ mile off the Moon Lake Road in a wooded non developed area.

It was NOT within Resort Cabin or Campground Boundaries.

The incident and its cause is currently under investigation by Forest Service Law enforcement.

The child and family were comforted in the lodge while awaiting emergency medical services.

The child was attended to by local EMT first responders and was transferred and transported by helicopter to Primary Children’s Hospital in Salt Lake City.

A family member told Resort staff (by phone the following day-7/3) that the child was becoming more responsive, her condition was stable and her injuries were being monitored and treated. 

Thanks to Everyone who assisted during this Emergency.

Hello Friends,
We've had many phone calls wondering what the weather is like up here.  Well, we're
happy to say that we dodged the worst of the Wasatch Front storm and got only a
light dusting of snow. See the attached photo taken at 9:00 am.  As you can see it
is already warming up and temperatures are expected to be back in the 70's for the
weekend!

The cooler weather brought good fishing to hardy campers reporting catches of
Kokanee, splake and rainbow trout.

So, if you want to come up while the fishing's good, the lake is at its peak and the
bugs are few,check out our Cabin Availability for the coming weeks:

FULL MOON FRIDAY THE 13TH,  June, 2014

After looking at these pictures of the lake right now, we don't think there's any bad luck or scariness involved in this Friday the 13th.  
Come on up while the lake is at its peak.
Cabins are still available throughout the season.  Reserve yours now at (435)-454-3142.

Hello Friends -- WELCOME to the HAPPY NEW YEAR 2014--We wish you all the best ahead!

We will be out of the office for quick response from Saturday, January 4th through Tuesday, January 14th for a little family reunion time of our own.  You may still make online reservation requests on our website but our phone and internet contact will be little to none during this time.  Thanks for your patience and devotion.  We hope this creates no inconvenience to you at this time but we'll be back before you know it.  Happy New Year, Bill and Julie

Dear Friends,

Throughout the summer, our door is always open to friends, family and
friends-to-be. 

In the off-season, we get to reflect on and appreciate all those who have
entered that door and shared with us their love of Moon Lake.

At this time, we are especially thankful for the blessings of friendship
and love for the "home in the mountains" we all share.
From our home to yours--Happy Thanksgiving!

Thanks for Loving Moon Lake.
Bill, Julie and The Moon Lake Gang
