Hi Folks,

Happy first Day of Fall! It is OFFICIAL, Moon Lake’s 2016 Season is over and it’s time to look toward 2017. Where does the time GO?!?!?!

We want to thank everyone who visited in 2016.  For us, it was a good season and we hope you all enjoyed your visits.

The Resort had an excellent crew this year.  We are thankful to them for going the extra mile and maintaining and improving the 

standards that we have worked so hard for over the past 21 seasons. 

If you are already missing us, check out this year’s staff photo!

(It is quite a feat to have us all clean and awake at the same time!) Front Row: Emily, Julie, Dani, Chris. Back: Adam, Wild Bill, Gentry.

On to the 2017 Season… Here is the scoop on HOW AND WHEN TO MAKE CABIN RESERVATIONS:

1) JULIE WILL START TAKING PHONE RESERVATIONS AT 8AM (MST) on

SATURDAY, OCTOBER 1 from the Moon Lake number--435-454-3142.

This is a change from the previous announcement. SORRY for the confusion.

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

2) 2017 Season will open Friday, May 26 and close Monday, September 11. (The Weekend of September 15 & 16 is available for a Private Party 

or Wedding interested in booking the entire Resort.)

3) In Advance--please View Rates:  http://moonlakeresort.com/cabins.html 

and Deposit/Cancellation Policies: http://moonlakeresort.com/faqs.html#oppolicies

4) GET A JUMP START - You can send a reservation REQUEST via our website online "Webervations" system starting Monday, SEPTEMBER 26th.

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 OCTOBER 1ST 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 OCTOBER 1ST. Restrictions apply.

5) On October 1ST, PRIORITY WILL BE GIVEN TO "LIVE" PHONE CALLS but you can leave a message if the line is busy.

NOTE: the number to call is (435)454-3142,

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!

AGAIN NOTE: (435)454-3142 is the number to call on October 1st!

6)CREDIT CARD payment* for deposit is PREFERRED for all reservations EXCEPT larger groups.

*To pay by credit card You MUST enter card information online.
CREDIT CARDS CANNOT BE TAKEN OVER THE PHONE. 

See link: http://www.webervations.com/magic-scripts/resbook.asp?memberid=moonlake1

7) In 2017--THERE WILL BE A CHANGE TO OUR PET POLICY. 

Moon Lake Resort does sincerely loves your pets.  However, over the years, it has become clear that it DOES REQUIRE MORE WORK

and EFFORT to accommodate cabin guests WITH PETS as opposed to those without pets.

The general cleaning of the cabins and grounds, as well as policing and enforcing pet policies, requires lots of extra work.

To offset this additional work load, there will be a $10 PER/PET fee.

(THIS IS A PER/STAY fee, NOT a per/night fee.)

You will be asked to register your pet(s) at Check-IN and sign agreement to the Resort Pet Policies.

The PET FEE will be collected at this time and can be paid by cash or credit card (Visa or MC).

Please LIMIT to 2 Pets PER CABIN (unless prior approval has been given.)

Pet owners will still be expected to clean up after their pets and follow all Resort and Forest Service Policies.

Cabins that are damaged or left excessively dirty or hairy will be charged additional fees.

IF YOU HAVE A BARKING OR AGGRESSIVE DOG,PLEASE LEAVE IT HOME!

PETS DEEMED A NUISANCE MAY REQUIRE REMOVAL FROM THE RESORT. 

NEVER leave your pet tied up outside WITHOUT YOU!

IF YOU THINK YOUR PET MIGHT BE A PROBLEM, PLEASE LEAVE IT HOME! 

BASICALLY THE POLICY IS THIS:

LEASHED – KEPT QUIET- AND CLEANED UP AFTER - at ALL TIMES! 

Please help us keep MOON LAKE RESORT a "Pet Friendly and Fun" place for EVERYONE!

For more information please view the Resort "PET POLICY".

See link for details:  http://moonlakeresort.com/faqs.html#pets 

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

 2016 RESERVATIONS OPEN OCTOBER 15, 2015  

Hi Folks,

Another Season has come and gone. This was OUR 20th summer at Moon Lake. 
That’s every summer since 1994 except 1995 & 1996.  Boy, are we getting old!

2015 was a good season.  We hope you can say the same about your summer and your
visit here if you were able to come.

To Recap 2015:
- There was LOTS of water in the lake and mostly agreeable weather and fishing. 
- The Forest Service initiated a long-planned road improvement project from the
Forest boundary to Moon Lake which includes widening and repaving. 
This will hopefully be completed by next Spring. 
-The Lodge and Cabins 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 2016
Here's the Scoop...

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

2)  As always, Reservations will be handled on a FIRST-COME, FIRST-SERVED basis.
PRIORITY WILL BE GIVEN TO "LIVE" PHONE CALLS.  On the 15th, you can leave a
message if the line is busy and we'll call back ASAP, but that may not be until the
next day!  Otherwise, keep trying to get through if you're PATIENT and DETERMINED! 

3) GET A JUMP START - You CAN send a reservation REQUEST via our website
"Webervations" system, starting Monday, October 12th.
*REMEMBER! This Online Request IS NOT a Confirmed RESERVATION!!!!!!
This is ONLY A REQUEST! and you STILL MUST SPEAK TO JULIE
on or after October 15th to confirm.  Many restrictions apply.
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 October 15th
reservation opening date,
*REMEMBER, it is ALWAYS RECOMMENDED to have a SECOND CHOICE of dates and cabins, if
possible!

4)  The 2016 SEASON OPENS on Friday, May 27 and CLOSES--Monday, September 12.  
Note:  The Resort will briefly close for 3 days--5/31-6/2 for Spring “Fine-Tuning”.
ALSO:  The Weekend of September 16 & 17 is POTENTIALLY available for a Private Party
or Wedding that would book the entire Resort.

5)  In 2016, there will be a $10 per night rate increase for all Cabins.
See link for rates:  http://moonlakeresort.com/cabins.html
Our last rate increase took place in 2013.  We hope that YOU understand that OUR
operating costs, unfortunately, keep going up annually. 

6)  CREDIT CARDS are the PREFERRED OPTION for Deposit Payment on 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 for details:
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 MUST REGISTER your pet(s) at CHECK-IN to insure that everyone is
aware of the Resort "PET POLICY".
PRIOR TO BOOKING-- PLEASE Review our website Pet Policy: 
http://moonlakeresort.com/faqs.html#pets 
and ADVISE YOUR ACCOMPANYING FRIENDS AND FAMILY TO DO THE SAME.
NOTES:
Please limit dogs to 2 per cabin unless prior approval has been given.
There is STILL NO ADDITIONAL CHARGE for pets but if your pet damages the cabin or
leaves it excessively hairy or dirty—Repair and Cleaning fees WILL APPLY!
MOST IMPORTANTLY—
ALL DOGS MUST BE LEASHED & NOT PERMITTED TO BARK EXCESSIVELY ON RESORT PROPERTY! 
IF YOU CANNOT COMPLY WITH THIS REQUIREMENT--PLEASE LEAVE THEM HOME.

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
