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.

Love this place!! I’m not comparing this to a high end lodging; for this area and price point we were so pleased. The cabin we stayed in had white soft goods which was reassuring as for cleanliness. We parked right in front. Great location : It is just above Weirs Blvd. The staff and our neighbours’ were so friendly and helpful. The pool was sparkly clean.

My sister and I stayed in the small cottage. It was all we needed for space and we loved the porch with two rockers and a table. Our room was very clean and had everything we needed. Parking was right outside the cottage and the pool is very clean, well mainainted and right in front. We were walking distance to the boardwalk, beach, stores and boat tours. There is coffee in the room but we found a great coffe shop called Fresh right on the boardwalk. The staff is attentive and pleasant. There is a small refrigerator in the room which was great to have. There is a huge ice maker on the premises as well. I would stay in the same, #3 cottage again. We had two bulbs out in the ceiling fan, light and they replaced them. We have no complaints.

Loved this place!
Literally just a one minute walk to Weirs Beach, this is truly the perfect location. Plenty of restaurants in the area with a boardwalk featuring 2 different arcades. Rooms were clean. My only regret is that I couldn't have stayed longer. Definitely worth the money!

We were pleased with our stay here! We booked very last minute for Fourth of July weekend and snagged the last room. The pool was great and so many other kids around for my littles to play with. We met some amazing families. Walking distance to everything! Ice cream, restaurants, arcades, shops and the lake! Honestly we had a great time and can’t wait to return. Staff was pleasant and helpful!

Absolutely gorgeous, the view alone was worth the price. While the rooms could use some updating they were comfortable, clean, and most of all quiet. I literally walked to most places from my hotel room. Its location is also perfect for use as a staging area for visiting other locations nearby. I will be going again for nice weekend trips in the future
