I have stayed at many of the motels and cottages in the Weirs area and Half Moon is by far the best/my favorite place to stay. You can not beat the location at all and the view from the balcony is amazing! The staff is as friendly as can be and extremely accommodating. There have been some updates done since... More

Great value, excellent view of the lake as well as the mount, rooms were in great shape and the service was excellent. Second time visiting this motel and definitely not going to be the last looking forward to seeing all the renovations that are going on

This is the second time we visited this motel. We requested the same room as the view is spectactular overlooking the lake from an elevated perch with a magnificent vista of the harbor and mountains. The management upgraded the room with new tile, drapes and wall coverings. Our room was an efficiency so we save so much on going out... More

We informed all of our guests in advance that we had a large wedding party staying this particular weekend. The wedding party was quiet and respectful to our other guests, and the reception, held next to our outdoor pool, was over by 10pm. All of our rooms were meticulously cleaned in preparation for the wedding. Our beds are all standard... More

We just stayed at the Half Moon for the Labor day weekend with my sister-in-law and her family. My family (of 3) had a hotel room, my sister in law had a cottage. Yes, the decor is outdated but the room itself was spotless. The beds were comfortable enough. We couldn't get enough of the view, the pool was clean... More

The particular cottage we stayed in was outdated. Carpet seemed as if was cut with a box cutter along the cottages flooring perimeter. The thing that completely turned us off and made our skin crawl was that my wife found an insect under a bed pillow that she quickly killed. My mother at the point wanted to sleep out of... More

We tried and tried but were unable to please this customer. We completely changed the entire bedding, promptly repaired the screen door, and offered to move the customer to a more recently renovated cottage, but were declined. More

There is a 1950s feel to this property which is probably when it had its last major refurb. The room was a little cramped, especially the bathroom, and while a little dowdy by modern standards it was clean. The view from the shared balcony over the lake is superb and the lake itself is really beautiful. My wife would have... More

The Motel rooms, which were designed and built in the 1960's, retain a retro feel, but they have been recently renovated with new furniture, carpeting and fixtures. Hairdryers are available by request, by asking our housekeeping staff or at the office. More

This isn't my first time staying here. Over the years we have probably stayed here a dozen times. But this time was our last visit for a long time. We were staying in a cabin. The cabin was a basic cabin. Bed was comfortable. Kitchenette was great for basic food prep. But, what my 8 year old found under the... More

I stayed on the first floor of the Motel. What a view. The motel is pretty basic, but the beds are comfortable. The a/c worked and the cleaning crew did an awesome job. I don't get the people who are complaining about this place. The money that I paid was well worth it. The pool is awesome and the location... More
