Rita’s Cantina - Marathon

We randomly chose this place as he was on his way home from our family trip to Big Bend and well we got a pretty bonus by getting this place. They had a star party at night when we were there. This place actually sits in one of the areas that has the best skis to see stars in the world (Scale 1). And at night we were there a bunch of astronomers, and with the owner and some of his employees they let you see their telescopes. My son was just intrigued. Bill one of the people who helps to lead the observatory there spent hours with us who explain all the ins and outs of the astronomy. We stayed until 11:30 and then woke up early to meet Bill to climb the stars and planets that rose in the early hours before sunrise (I had never seen Saturn and it rings like that or Jupiter with its moons. We have learned so much about astronomy in these 5 hours from Bill. When we came home the next night, my son had our telescope out to find some of the things we saw in the previous night. Of course, our telescope and the Austin sky is not as good or dark as this place, so it wasn't almost as funny. Bill, thank you for a magical night with my son and his curiosity.

Love this place! Quiet and far! Friendly staff with excellent service and the best settings! Will definitely come back!

Really nice. Great outdoor terrace, night sky and sunrise.

1100 miles a way that crossed fingers that this place was all we thought it was. Holy cow, it was ever! Danny and the entire staff are just amazing. The park is clean, well maintained and well maintained. The courtyard with its fountain and fireplace is a truly relaxing way to spend an evening. The skys are dark, and the telescope area is first rate, with all the power and protection you could ask. There's just no bad thing to say about this place or his people. Thanks again to all those who earn our first annual SpaceOnly a great success!

This is a great RV park. I have stayed here several times and have enjoyed it every time. The views are spectacular and there is lots of wildlife to watch.
