2 bedroom cottage with a large family room on beautiful Halfmoon Lake (5 miles south of the Alton traffic circle, 10 minutes to Lake Winnepsauke and lots of Lakes Region activities.) It is a short walk on our private property from the cottage to the beautiful white sand beach. The crystal clear water is inviting, and the water depth increases very slowly, perfect for young children. In season there is usually a large raft in deeper water of swimming area for jumping and diving. Free use of kayaks, canoe, rowboat and paddle boat. Guests may bring their own boat. Great fishing. Main room has Smart TV for watching your streaming accounts. WiFi for entire cottage. Fully stocked modern kitchen includes a microwave, toaster oven, Keurig coffeemaker. The cottage has it's own outdoor picnic area with a propane grill, picnic table, Adirondack chairs and hammock. There is also a community picnic area, and a dock. The cottage sleeps 6, sorry no pets. Great location to enjoy fall leaf peeping in September through mid October. Check our calendar and send me an inquiry. We would love to have you discover what we call our "little piece of heaven".
Please note: Our cottage is a house keeping cottage. We provide the supplies renters will need to clean the cottage during their stay.

Beautiful view
The lake was gorgeous. The grounds were kept up. The cabin was very rustic.

Like Beach Camp When I was a Kid
Very clean and cute. The cabin was built in an era where people expected a bit of "roughing it" when they were out the lake. The septic is not set up for long, hot showers or half a dozen people flushing all day long. Also, you are expected to clean up after yourself. If you can live with that, the beach is lovely and the other residents are mostly very friendly. (I did have one person explain to me that I was at "her" table, which was for cabins not rented out, while literally every single other table on the beach was empty.) The kayaks are perfect for the kids to play on and the sand is suitable for building. The stove and oven are full-sized and there are plenty of dishes. You can make regular coffee or K cup. We definitely hope to go again in the spring.

Weekend getaway
We spent a beautiful weekend unplugged by the lake! Cabin was clean and comfy, well stocked, and just a quick walk to water. Owner was super quick to reply and gave us directions to launch our boat which by the way, was perfect Todd. Thanks

Great Cabin by the Lake
Enjoyed our stay at Halfmoon Lake.! Temps hit 90s but the cabin was cool and comfortable in the shade and with the fans going. WiFi was excellent which was important because I had to work and take video calls. As noted in other reviews, Bathroom/ shower a bit rustic but everything worked fine. Cabin well appointed with everything we needed and kids loved the hammock. But most importantly the Lake! So great, so close, loved being able to take a dip whenever I felt like it!

Forget About Life for a While
We had the most wonderful time at the cabin. It was so clean and inviting. So many amenities.....dinnerware, cookware, utensils, BBQ grill, picnic table and even chairs and table on the beach. The lake is so clean and refreshing. Definitely would go back again....5 stars!

Why they chose this property

I have been vacationing at this lake for over 50 years. Every year we make the journey and every year we have a great time. Now my kids are enjoying it as much as I did when I started coming up here. We enjoy sharing our cottage and the beautiful beach and lake with our guests. We have many guests who come back year after year to relax and unwind at "the lake".

What makes this property unique

Beautiful white sand beach, crystal clear water, and the water depth increases very slowly, perfect for young children and families.
