This site consists of a road where all the land is owned by astronomers. Many of the resident astronomers have built their own observatories. Normally two small star parties a year are held here - in May and October. We have enough room for thousands of astronomers, but no facilities except porta-potties. Camping on the observing field next to your telescope is the normal routine.
Motels are available in town, along with plenty of restaurants.
The weather in Chiefland is expected to be in the high 30s-low 40s at night, and 60s during the day. Be advised, it can be warmer or cooler. Come prepared for everything. Observing conditions are usually excellent. Pre-registration is not required, but an RSVP to let us know how many to expect is necessary to help us plan ahead.
