While the weather didn't cooperate for might skies but the Stargazer bunkie is perfectly positioned for viewing open sky. The bunkie is well equipped, including some stargazing guides; the futon was more comfortable than expected and the setting is very peaceful. Heather provided helpful advice. I intend to return.
