Moonshadow inn 87 Milanville Road, Beach Lake, PA 18405

"Phil has turned this historic location into an amazing place to stay. The rooms are cozy and full of little bits of history and paintings. The cool factor was the 200+ year old skeleton keys. My family will definitely be back again to explore more of the Inn. 19/10 Recommend ❤️"

"Fairly bare bones. However, the location is pleasant. Smoking is a major component of the lodging, and any smoker would be pleased. Easy access to smoker's butt buckets are available in most areas. While quaint, the presence of smoke detectors and security locks are imperative to safe lodging for me. Smoke detector frames were visible, but the box of detectors were safely stored away. Rooms have only the original locks, eliminating the option to leave anyone in the room safely or to exit quickly in the event of an emergency. The aspect did cause some concern. Do you lock your family in, or leave the door unlocked? Can we locate the Skelton key in the dark to exit in the case of an emergency? Basic toiletries are offered, and luckily, the previous guests had not used the entire bottle of liquids, and were kind enough to have left them in the bathroom. The front second story porch and main level deck offer better options for outdoor time. Smoking is still welcome from these levels, and butt buckets are plentiful. The rear of the building is a bit less relaxing with the small mobile trailer that is being used for housing in full view. The bar/lounge is interesting and smoking seems to be permitted there as well. The furnishing are unique. A coffee pot and coffee were available, and I assume it was self-service. We didn't take the time to clean or refill the pot to brew, but it did seem to be available to use if one wished to rinse and prepare. It's nice to know it was there. The area is relaxing for walking and strolling, and if looking to experience a feel like time has rolled back to the 1800's this could be it. Personally, I needed just a few modern anemeties to offer safety and comfort."

"The Moonshadow Inn is a great find! The owner is friendly, helpful, and a really great guy. He is very knowledgeable about the area and its history. The Inn is beautiful, as is the bar restaurant. The rooms are spacious, comfortable, charming, and far more than I expected. The rates are reasonable and better than others in the area. We're looking forward to coming back."

"Haven’t stayed at the Inn yet, but we went to the bar downstairs after my cousin’s wedding. Beautiful decor; you can tell that a lot of work went into creating a welcoming and fun space. The owner was very accommodating of our group, and the bartender Kim was a rockstar. I’d give it a 6/5 stars if I could. Amazing time."

"This is a hidden gem. We spent one night on our way home and it was a great experience. Moonshadow Inn is a 200 year old Inn formerly called The Beach Lake Hotel. The owner is an antique collector who has restored the building and furnished it with his collection of furniture and art. Even the room key that he handed me is the original key from 200 years ago. We had a beautiful room with a very comfortable bed, the bathroom was small but clean and all that we needed. Do yourself a favor and get there in time to have a drink and dinner in the restaurant. You'll hopefully get a chance to talk to the owner and maybe a few locals. If I'm ever back in the area I will definitely return."
