I enjoyed my stay at Moon Lake Cottage! As the title implies, the cabin was cute and clean, and the surrounding community was quiet and peaceful. The roads near the property are lovely for a walk, including a trail halfway up the mountain starting from another property in the community. As the fall colors were really starting to show, I brought along my photography equipment and took some gorgeous photos! The creek out back burbled quietly in earshot of the deck, and the fire pit (which I did not use) would have been lovely on a few of those chilly nights.

The cottage itself was, as I said, very clean, which is important to me. The WiFi would not connect for me, but as I was in a position to crave solitude, it was no large impediment to my enjoyment of the property. One improvement that could be made is the replacement of light-filtering blinds in the bedrooms with light-blocking ones--a neighbor kept flood lights on at night, though I was successful in darkening the room enough for restful sleep.

A day trip to Swatara State Park rewarded me with some fossils to bring home--a real treat for my kids! It has a well-maintained rail-trail that provides great hiking opportunities. If you're a mountain biker, there are dedicated trails for you, too.

Overall, Moon Lake Cottage is a very enjoyable place to stay! I will consider it in the future! Thank you!
