One consistent piece of feedback we receive from our guests is that Getaway is the perfect place, far from the light pollution of the city, to see the stars—and on Monday, April 8, 2024, a total solar eclipse will trace a narrow path across 13 states, offering a breathtaking opportunity to escape into nature to be present for this celestial event. Imagine the sky turning dark as the Moon obscures the Sun casting a surreal ambiance all around. It’s a moment of magic; an experience that will leave you in awe.
The eclipse’s path extends from Mexico and enters the United States through Texas, continuing its journey through Oklahoma, Arkansas, Missouri, Illinois, Kentucky, Indiana, Ohio, Pennsylvania, New York, Vermont, New Hampshire, and finally reaching the northeastern tip of Maine—meaning our guests who escape to nature on Monday, April 8, 2024 to any of the following Outposts will have the best celestial views at the time the eclipse will peak:
Texas begins around 12:23 PM local:
Missouri begins around 12:39 PM local:
Illinois begins around 12:42 PM local:
Indiana begins around 1:50 PM local:
New York begins around 2:04 PM local:
