"Tucked in New Cuyama’s high desert, this boutique motel occupies a 1952 roadhouse and offers 21 rooms with artsy, western-inspired character, locally sourced meals at its Buckhorn Restaurant & Bar, and leisure amenities including a pool, hot tub, and sauna. Its remote, low-light location makes it ideal for stargazing, and it serves as a jumping-off point for sights like the Carrizo Plain National Monument and seasonal wildflower displays." - Mae Hamilton
