Look Up. Slow Down. Get Lost in the Stars.

Experience the magic of a truly dark night sky at Moon Gate Guest House.

Did you know that Moon Gate is now a Dark Sky Destination? We’re fortunate to enjoy beautiful night skies here along the Whitemouth River, away from the bright lights and distractions of the city.

Our night skies rate a Class 3 on the Bortle Dark-Sky Scale, where Class 1 represents the darkest skies and Class 9 the brightest urban skies. That means wonderful opportunities to take in the stars, explore the constellations and appreciate the beauty of the night sky.

Imagine settling into a comfortable reclining chair, wrapping yourself in a cozy blanket and watching the stars emerge as the evening unfolds. Perhaps you’ll spot a passing satellite, recognize a familiar constellation or simply lose yourself in the vastness above.

We’ve put together everything you need for a memorable evening of stargazing, including:

• LaFuma reclining chairs for comfortable sky watching.
• Cozy blankets to keep you warm.
• Binoculars to bring the night sky a little closer.
• A peaceful setting where you can unplug, unwind and take it all in.

Whether you’re a curious beginner, a budding astronomer or simply someone who appreciates a beautiful night sky, this experience is for you.

Leave the city lights behind, put your feet up and give yourself permission to do absolutely nothing but look up.

Add a little stardust to your stay, year round!

Ask us about adding the Dark Sky Experience when booking your Moon Gate getaway. This experience is best enjoyed on clear, moonless or near-moonless nights so plan your stay around the lunar cycle! Price is for two stargazers.

Weather and sky conditions permitting. The stars are always there, but Mother Nature has the final say!
