Curious if anyone here on CN lives there or has info about it? I talked to them a bit at NEAF. 

I did send an email requesting more info, but nothing in return. Please personal message me for any info.

Thanks

I was passing through that area about 10 years ago and got a tour of the imaging setups, was a real treat. At that time there was nothing open available to someone just coming up for a short stay in person. 

 

I noticed in the video a mention of RV sites but I'm not finding any more info about that. I would LOVE to go there and stay a week with my scope and camper.

Two fellow observers and I stayed at New Mexico Skies in the fall of 2005.  At that time, telescopes were available for visual observers to rent.  We used a 30" Tectron Dob.  The skies there were fantastic.

In the past my wife and I spent three visits, a week at a time, when the rooms and optics were for rent.  The location, skies, optics were fantastic.

We considered  buying a lot but were not ready to invest in a move or retirement home.

 

Current status unknown.
