Labor Day getaway

We all enjoyed our stay, the air hockey and swing was a hit with the kids. We were out most of the day, 1st day on our SXS riding on trails to Young stopping and getting snacks and drinks and then heading back we found Haigler Creek stayed there 30 minutes headed back before it got too dark. Next day went fishing & pass the time at Woods Canyon Lake(only 25min drive) was a little crowded because the holiday but we had a good time. It was nice to get out of the heat for a couple days.

Nice secluded location, lots of space

There was no fully stocked Keurig as advertised, had to drive back to town for coffee. Would have been nice to know it was broken ahead of time. Had some issues with an incorrect add-on cleaning charge. The host charged the wrong reservation (me) but didn't seem to listen very well when I tried to explain it must be a mistake. Seems like an honest mistake on his part and was eventually resolved after too much back and forth but I'd recommend taking pictures when you check out so you have proof.

Great for Astrophotography

We found this VRBO perfect for our nighttime astrophotography. For other astronomers who might be interested, the moonless sky is quite dark, measuring 21.5-21.8 mag/arcsec^2. The sky is mostly clear of trees looking north, east and south. Visually the Milky Way was quite bright and the transparency allowed us to get images of very faint objects not possible in urban areas. The accommodations were more than adequate for our purposes. If you are looking for a place to do astrophotography or have a star party, this one is excellent.
