At Casitas de Gila Guesthouses, night sky and astronomy enthusiasts will find:
Secluded, dark, light-pollution-free, clear skies.
dark skies new mexicoSituated 30 miles from Silver City, on the edge of the Gila Wilderness, Casitas de Gila Guesthouses are able to offer some of the darkest skies remaining in the continental United States. (Have a look at the Light Pollution Map for our location and see for yourself!) As a guest at the Casitas you will be awed by the Milky Way, mesmerized by the Moon, thrilled by the Planets, and humbled by the unbelievable number of Stars which soar above your Casita almost every night of the year.
Have you ever seen the Andromeda Galaxy or the Great Nebula in Orion or the Beehive Star Cluster with your naked eye? At the Casitas you can see these and more. Without question the darkness and clarity of the Casita nighttime sky is a special treat that, unfortunately, is all too rare today. For some of our older guests, it’s a view of the heavens that hasn’t been seen since childhood. For our younger guests, it’s a view they may be seeing for the first time and will remember forever.
