Great stories and gorgeous sky - Omg this was amazing! This trip was part of my husband's birthday present cause he loves stargazing. Wow! It was cold, but Chad and Victoria made sure we were warm and comfortable. And Chad took us on an epic adventure through the stars by pointing out constellations and telling stores from various cultures. We were in absolute awe the entire time!!!

Great Experience - Great experience! Chad was amazing—very personable and attentive. He even wrote down our names and followed up with a message about our experience, which was a lovely touch. The setup was excellent, with chairs, blankets, and heaters to keep us comfortable. There was also a TV to show details about the stars, which added to the experience. Chad walked us back to our cars at the end, which was thoughtful. One person in the group asked multiple questions that slightly disrupted the experience, but Chad handled it well and remained professional.

Lucky Stars! - We liked many things about this event. The evening was very informative on the night sky. The location was close, but very dark for star gazing. We went on New Year’s Eve so it was pretty cold, they had plenty of camp chairs, blankets, and hand warmers. There was no telescopes though, so don’t expect close up views of the objects. Chad was very entertaining and personable.

Cold Night but Well Worth It - We lucked out, weathweise, with the clouds staying away until 9:30 or so. Chad and his helper got us all bundled up, which was necessary given the temperature. Chad did an amazing tour of the night skies, with story after story after story. Our night tour was augmented with several shooting stars and a choir of coyotes howling and chirping nearby. The only criticism we can offer is that Chad carried on with his tales well beyond the 2 hours and between the cold and the need for a bathroom made us high-tail out of there as soon as he put lights back on. One final note: Chad's use of a laser pointer made seeing the constellations SO much easier. We would definitely recommend this tour in warmer weather!!
