The Star Party program (~ 2 hours, depending on weather & crowd size) is fun for the entire family, and is open to everyone (reservations are nearly always required as this program frequently sells out.) Enjoy night sky constellation tours and views of celestial objects through a number of telescopes (varying in size up to a 24-inch Ritchey–Chrétien telescope) in the Rebecca Gale Telescope Park at the Visitors Center (i.e., NOT at the research telescopes at the top of our peaks) every Tuesday, Friday, and Saturday evening (schedule varies during the end-of-the-year holidays and Spring Break). Those with mobility issues, please note the distances involved with participating in the Star Party. There is a slight incline over that distance from the Center all the way through the Telescope Park to the Amphitheater with that latter structure being ~ 20 feet higher than the Center's front doors

Top Fort Davis Hotel Reviews

Riata Inn

10/10 Excellent

"Love everything about this inn. Juan at the front desk is so helpful and kind. Room is so big, clean, and comfortable. The light at sunset and sunrise is magnificent."

Mountainside Inn

10/10 Excellent

"An amazing place! Our room was clean and spacious. They have a beautiful common lobby and kitchen where you can hangout and interact with other guests. The fridge had a basket for every room, so you can store your perishable food items, very convenient and thoughtful! And as the name suggests, there is a mountain right behind the property. We saw Aoudads, mule deer and a roadrunner. The road leading to the inn from the main street is a bit rough, but driving slow takes care of it. Overall, this is a highly recommended place to stay if you're visiting Fort Davis! "

The Hotel Paisano

10/10 Excellent

"Our room was huge. It was very clean. The beds were very comfortable. There was a rollaway ready to go in the closet. The bathroom was very small but workable. The staff was extremely helpful and friendly. The morning coffee was the best hotel coffee I've ever had. The whole vibe of the hotel is awesome!"
