Heaven

Beautifully located and ideal for a break. The spot was immense on the lake. Fishing, kayaking all within seconds of waking up. At night all we could hear were the frogs and cicadas. Inside was spotlessly clean and everything pretty much you would need. No wifi but for us that meant we were forced to relax more. Satellite TV for the nighttime game was ideal and the comfiest couch and bed I’ve ever used. Capt Joe was there with a new chair when we discovered one was broken and responded straight away. A superb host who was great with his recommendations for places to eat etc. we will def be staying again if it’s available . Overall o can’t recommend enough.

Relaxing weekend getaway

The floating apartment was beautifully decorated, fully furnished, and offered all the comforts of home. It was so nice to wake up and sit right on the water. A huge plus was being able to pull the boat right up to the door and leave it there instead of having to pull it out of the water after every use. Captain Joe was very accommodating with recommendations of restaurants, bait shops and any local attractions. I highly recommend this place and will be returning in the future.

The Slip Away was the weekend get-away that I did not know I needed. Every aspect of this cozy lake property was superb. It was the perfect place to unwind, do some fishing, and enjoy the scenery. I will definitely visit again!

Great little getaway

Really great views and access to the lake and river. Feels remote, but still was close to grocery stores if feeling the urge to stay in and not go anywhere! Very nice sunsets and kayaking around the lake was a nice experience. Host is very communicative but not overly so - just right!

Anniversary Get Away

The property was so peaceful and clean! My husband loved the electric fireplace so much that we bought one the day we came home. We loved being right on the water and even though it was dewy and rained it was still very beautiful. We will be back again for sure! We ate at Waterfront Grill and Does Eat Place and we absolutely loved both places! We will be back again!

Relaxing Getaway

We needed a last-minute getaway with her grandson. The home was perfect. It was exactly as advertised. Being on the water was so peaceful and was a great way to start and end the day. Despite having Neighbors on both sides it was like having our own little sanctuary. Unfortunately we really didn't catch any fish despite being a full moon. This was our first time on Moon Lake so I don't know if it is a good fishing spot or not. But anyone who loves to fish knows that it isn't always about catching fish. We were there to relax and we were able to do that. Thanks Joe for opening your home.
