ABOUT US

Half Moon Trail is a top-quality, family owned and operated resort; a special blend of landscaped gardens, great activities, and outstanding facilities, all set on an incredibly clear lake. With 18 cabins, we are large enough to provide all the amenities of a larger resort, but small enough to know everyone personally. The resort itself is set among mature oaks and pines with extensive lawn and meticulously landscaped gardens; new guests are amazed with the flowers. The lodge and cabins are fairly new or have been recently remodeled and updated. Your resort experience at Half Moon Trail can vary from a quiet, more reserved, nature-focused vacation to a more social, interactive experience. If you choose to get involved with the many scheduled activities, events, and amenities, your family will become integrated with the resort community that naturally develops throughout the course of the week. Dave and Mary Ahrendt are the 4th owners of Half Moon Trail which began in 1952 as a fishing resort. Dave and Mary have owned the resort since 1993. Throughout the course of their life they have both been school teachers and coached athletics. They made their living carving birds for 12 years, with Dave carving and Mary painting the birds. And they have spent 3 years teaching Eskimos in a remote village in Alaska. They have 4 children, two of which, Nate and Michaela, are still at home helping run the resort. Sarah and Ryan (married to Liz) live and work in the Twin Cities. As a family we love what we do. Each year we anticipate the return of both new and past guests, looking forward to making their week at the lake the best vacation they have ever had.
