Summary: This large house was well furnished and had everything we needed for our brief stay. It is centrally located for visiting all three units of the John Day Fossils Beds National Monument.The sky is very dark at night and excellent for star gazing. They house even has a small telescope!. Unfortunately for us, the second night sky was obscured by the Cram Fire way to the north.
