Moon Lake Camping Trip

My family has property in Duchesne county and whenever we are there we like to take day trips to the surrounding area.  On one of our trips we discovered Moon Lake on the back end of the High Uintas and I liked it so much I booked a trip at the resort for this past week.
I stayed in a "rustic" cabin which means that it does not have a bathroom (a really nice bathroom with a shower is just steps away).  It has a kitchen, with a sink, stove, and refrigerator, a table and four chairs, and two double beds.  You have to provide your own dishes and bed linen but they can be rented for a small fee.  It rained every day I was there in the late afternoon and I really enjoyed staying inside under a blanket and reading.  It was so relaxing.
I spent every morning at the lake.  You can rent motorboats, kayaks, canoes, paddle boards, and life jackets from the resort but the water was absolutely freezing (some kids still went swimming) so I stayed mostly on the beach.  It wasn't very crowded so it was really nice.
Every cabin has its own fire pit and seating area (you can also rent grills and picnic tables) and I spent every evening sitting by the fire.  It is my favorite part of camping!  Most of the cabins were occupied but they were far enough apart that I didn't really interact with anyone and it was very quiet.  The staff was very friendly and helpful (there are lots of other amenities available such as mountains bikes for rent and horseback riding).  I had a wonderful time (even without Wi-Fi) and I would highly recommend staying at the Moon Lake Resort (go here for more information and reservations).
