Marathon is a small town in a dark sky region, so the stars are very visible at night. I took a bunch of photos of the night sky with my iPhone; it did a remarkably good job, for just a hand-held phone. It has a night mode where you can set the capture duration, from 1 to 10 seconds; I used 10 seconds for most of these. If your aim drifts, it shows a couple of crosshairs to get you back on target.

These are pictures taken outside our coach, with it visible in some:
