Pleasant activity, the sky and the stars are beautiful! - This release is original, unexpected and very interesting. The place is well done, the explanations rather clear and we easily immerse ourselves in the universe. The cushions are nice, and the 2 hours pass very quickly. Telescopes are super efficient. We leave with souvenir photos, which is also great. We spent 2 hours with our heads in the stars, which are super visible, it changes us from Paris!!!! We are just a little bit disappointed because it's finally a little expensive, we expected because of the Award a little "more" (especially on cushions that were described as remove the aearner, we expected something technologically advanced), and also, even if we speak good English, we did not understand everything; finally, the sky is really beautiful, but a little light pollution comes to remind that we are not far from the city, too bad that the city does not pay attention to this, the place deserves to be even further and more isolated? So maybe an Award to review?

Amazing experience! - We just finished professional star gazing. This was such a unique amazing experience. Most of us live in places where we have so much light pollution, we cannot see the night sky like this. Caleb our guide is clearly passionate about astronomy and it shows. He was so informative while being funny and friendly. I don’t think he could be any better! Moe was helping with the telescopes and took fabulous pictures so we have a souvenir of this wonderful night. Moe also was very friendly and happy to take multiple pictures. I highly recommend this !

Great Hosts !! - Telescopes pictures were amazing. Fire haze and some light pollution did inhibit viewing. Not sure if this is Yucca valley or Joshua tree. Loud music played from the Pioneertown. That cant be helped! Great hosts!

Absolutely NOT worth the money! - I’ve been star gazing before with Observers Inn in Julian, CA, so this was an absolute let down. I paid $1200 for 6 close friends to have a great experience together and it turns out we had a recent graduate who just completed training. There were 2 small children running around, making it hard to hear and knocking into the tripods/telescopes (while also coughing and sneezing and rubbing their germs on everything). Because I have done one before I can truly say this is NOT worth the money at all. Wait until Observers Inn is up and running in Arizona and get a real Astronomer AND real telescopes (observatory quality). When you charge $200 a person, it better be spectacular. Don’t test your new trainees on us!
