Dark Sky Friendly

Growing up, my parents owned cabins in Jackman, Maine. Jackman is located north of the western mountains of Hanover in the Moose River Valley. As a child, our family would go to Jackman every weekend and for extended vacations. Frequently there would be a group of people sitting around a campfire in the evening and I would gaze at the night sky. The area was in the middle of the woods, with no street lights, no stores and very little traffic. The number of stars that could be seen was breathtaking. The night sky was magnificent! I could have watched the night sky until the break of dawn. I treasure those moments to this day.

In 2018, I thru hiked the entire Appalachian Trail. March 27th, I started in Amicalola Falls in Georgia and summitted Mt Katahdin in Maine on September 9th. On my 2190-mile journey I rediscovered the magnificence of the night sky. In June of 2023 I purchased Stony Brook Campground and wanted to create a place where people can come enjoy the night sky.

What makes Stony Brook Campground “Dark Sky Friendly”? It is our investment in lighting on the campground campus. All the exterior campground lighting has been replaced with new LED lighting equipped with a timer. During the summer months the lights will be on a timed schedule to turn off at 9:00pm and turn back on at 12:00 midnight. This timing of the lights going off at this time will enhance viewing of the night sky - “Dark Sky Friendly”. In addition, a viewing deck with telescope is in our development plan for 2025.
