  "Hi Joe, thank you for choosing our home to celebrate such a special occasion! We're happy to hear that you enjoyed your stay. However, we're a bit confused by the 3-star rating and would love to understand more about your experience. We did our best to make your anniversary memorable with a complimentary bottle of wine and homemade cookies, and we appreciate your cooperation regarding the pet fee.
  We hope that you had a pleasant stay overall, and we'd welcome any additional feedback to help us improve."

• Moon Lake Serenade

  5/5

  The home greeted us on a warm afternoon and we found the two-bedroom accommodations to a be a spacious, inviting,warmly decorated, comfortable home. Unlike cold motel rooms, this place had a lived-in feel that reflected the pride and love Jannifer, the host, provided. That evening the rising moon slowly smothered a sea of stars that captivated our attention and filled the night with a marvelous glow. The peace and silence of the place was only interrupted by the sounds of fish splashing the the lake or birds and night critters moving about. A perfect getaway.

• Over the Moon about Moon Lake

  4/5

  My family and I had a lovely stay here. I would recommend it for groups of any age. I felt safe the nights I stayed there alone, and things went well the nights that my daughter and small grandchildren stayed with me as well. Our two dogs loved the location. We were respectful and kept them on leashes outside as there are other dogs in the neighborhood.

  The location is very remote, but that's what I was looking for- a place to escape civilization and get away from it all. The peace and quiet was wonderful, and although we didn't see much wildlife (other than squirrels and chipmunks), we did hear frogs, birds and coyotes across the lake in the evenings. We fished off the new dock and took long walks. We cooked together and ate on the 2 decks. The sleeping arrangements worked great. The beds were comfortable and there was an abundance of pillows and blankets. The host was responsive and great to work with. The caretaker lived two doors down and we enjoyed talking to him several times. I would definitely book this place again.

  The only stressor for me was I missed the No Wifi in the description and I was working my job remotely and working on graduate school half the time I was there. I limped along with a cellphone hotspot but only had 2 bars of service at best.

  Very nice quiet rural location across the road from a clean lake with motor-less boats, 10 minutes from Iola

  From the owner: ''Thanks for the kind review. Actually, it is less than 4 miles to Iola and (July's) Old Car Showgrounds.''
