Stargazing on the Ridge: A Beginner’s Night Out

Twenty minutes beyond the last porch light, the sky does something most visitors have never seen: it goes properly dark. On a moonless night the Milky Way casts a shadow across the stargazing field.

Join our Friday night sky walk and our guide will orient you in ten minutes — the Summer Triangle, Saturn’s rings through the scope, and the satellites drifting silently overhead.

Prefer solitude? Every cabin has a star chart, red flashlights, and blankets by the door. The hot tub at Clifftop Mansion is, objectively, the finest seat in the house.
