What Our Guests Are Saying
We had a great stay at Half Moon Mountain House! The house was clean and communication was excellent.
We’ll definitely visit again!
The location, house, facilities and decor were all superb. This house was someone’s pet project and was definitely made with incredible eye for detail and design. It’s a spectacular house with some minor issues, which I think the owners are working to rectify (roof deck damaged and inaccessible, minor repairs required) It was a pity that it was raining all weekend so we couldn’t enjoy the pool however it was surprisingly clean and naturally warm enough to dip our toes. The rooms, cleanliness, amenities were all very good.
We only two concerns – 1) Some of the things were either broken or did not function. e.g. The ice machine in the fridge or the one separate both did not function at all. There was no facility for ice in the house. One of the hobs was broken and completely non-functional. 2) We got locked out because the main door closed behind us. Thankfully there is a backup key with a lock however it took an hour to get to that key because the codes provided were incorrect. I advise checking all codes as you check in to ensure you have backups in place.
We will definitely be coming back for a warmer weekend stay to fully enjoy the place. In fact I would say it’s one of the best places we’ve stayed at in terms of how well it’s designed and what a beautiful oasis it is away from the din of the cities and towns. The proximity to all the Hudson / Berkshires towns / villages was a major plus too.
Some suggestions to owners / operators would be to include a printed Handbook / House Guide in the house to outline certain systems of the house (we couldn’t figure out the sound system at all, which is a pity because that living room deserves a good system). Hopefully all the issues are already being addressed and we look forward to our next stay.
The home is well appointed and very comfortable. We especially appreciated black out shades in the bedroom, a well stocked kitchen and a fantastic grill!
