This was the perfect place to relax after a very busy Christmas season. At the Moon lake Lodge we found the peace and quiet we were looking for. We would most definitely like to return in the future. Nisa was very helpful with any questions we had.

Amazing Time
My family and I stayed for 3 nights. We had such an amazing time. It was like a second home. The cabin was clean and cozy. Everything we needed was there. We set and watched deer feed in the front yard from the porch. We definitely plan on returning in the near future.

Family Gathering
We enjoyed our time at Moon Lake. While we were gathering for a sad event (burying my father's ashes), it was a very enjoyable and familial time. We had everything we needed and were able to take care of meals and laundry easily. There was a lovely table set with welcome snacks and water bottles, which was an unexpected treat. The view was very lovely, but as it was November and cold, we did not get to enjoy the view from the wonderful screened-in porch. Very private and welcoming. The water is very hard, so it would be good to bring your own bottled water. The host was very prompt in responding to questions and communicating quickly with us. And it was extremely close to where we needed to be, so that was an extra plus!

A very nice fall getaway
This property is very nice! Props to the host for great communication and keeping the place looking good. We loved the area, even with a drought/burn ban. It was so quiet and relaxing. Everything seemed to work well; the kitchen was stocked with what we needed, lots of blankets, the heat was nice, the balconies were nice and we even saw dear!
The only downfall was the water, being well water the iron content and smell of sulphur wasn't pleasant. I know that's not something that the owners have any control over, so that doesn't make me change my rating.
We easily came down from Chattanooga to the cabin, traveled just 10 minutes to Mentone, and had a great hike at Cloudland Canyon. It's worth the stay

Love Moon Lake Lodge
This is a beautiful home surrounded by woods and with wildlife strolling through the front yard. So peaceful that it is easy to unwind and unplug, even with wifi available. Very spacious house with little decks outside each bedroom plus a large screened porch with rocking chairs and a table for outdoor dining. Has all sorts of little touches to make it comfortable, from binoculars and marshmallow roasting skewers to throws, books, and board games. We enjoyed the fire pit as well. Nisa is a great hostess and was easy to reach for any questions or needs. Will definitely stay again!

Secluded Tranquility, Exceeded Expectations!!!
There were no disappointments with our stay at Moon Lake Lodge. It actually exceeded our expectations. Sometimes when you rent a property, you show up and it is not as advertised or your basically in someone's back yard. Moon lake lodge was exactly as advertised. The communication with Anissa was great. We loved the property and we didn't need or want for anything. My grand kids loved the lodge as well and the hammock was a big hit!! There was severe weather the last night we were there and Anissa was quick to check on us and make sure we were OK and if we needed anything. The Lodge was perfect, the view was awesome, and we plan to return as soon as possible. Thank you so much Anissa for your hospitality and sharing the Moon Lake Lodge with us!!

Fall family getaway
This was the second time our family of four has stayed at the lodge. It’s a perfect spot for spending time relaxing by the fire and also to explore the local area (hiking at Cloudland Canyon and Little River Canyon, dining at the Wildflower Cafe, Christmas ornament shopping at Eddie’s Florist). We enjoyed another great visit!

Weekend getaway
Great place for what we needed. Weekend away. We stayed on the back porch most of our stay. We got to watch a couple of thunderstorms. My husband brought the big fan from our house but they even had a fan in the back porch so we never used ours. Very clean!! The owner reached out a few times through vrbo message to make sure we got in (easiest check in) ok and to see if we needed anything. Thank you for a great place for us to rest.

Moon Lake Lodge
We experienced a delightful stay at Moon Lake Lodge. Anissa communicated with me throughout our visit to make sure we were comfortable and had everything we needed. The cabin was clean, spacious, and decorated for Christmas (which gave it a warm, homey feel). It also has a nice yard, where our adult children spent time throwing the frisbee and football. I loved the privacy! Would definitely recommend to others!

Great secluded cabin
Lovely and cozy secluded cabin! Just pay attention to the house numbers on the street to help get you there- both Apple Maps and Waze wanted to send us further down the road, which got a little scary when we first got there since it was late and we had no service, but we found it by checking the house numbers of the surrounding houses. Beautiful property.
