Cheap good place

The best thing is the blm land surroundings where camping has no limit. I had a spot on what is called dodge city, locals know it. It was ten miles away. I'd come down for bingo ant the community center or senior meals. Library will loan you DVDs also. I stayed in the campground  and used the hot springs.  Nice hidden away place. Groceries 30 miles to pahrump.

The stars are bright and your nearby to Death Valley. The people Running the hot springs are really what make this place amazing

"Go up the road"

I made on line reservations on their website. When i arrived after dark, the man at the registration window said i was in the wrong place when i showed him the confirmation email. He said there was no way to make on line reservations. He said I must be looking for the place up the road. I went up the road, that place said the prior place was where i was supposed to be but if they wouldn't help me to cone back. I went back to Hot Springs Resort, they said, nope, not us, can't help ya. I traveled down the road to a campground called DeLights. These folks were super helpful, and friendly. They found me a spot on their campground and it was a nice quiet campground. The hot springs pool was fabulous! The bathrooms and showers very clean. I ended up staying here two nights as i toured Death Valley. The following morning after i was able to use Delights wifi, i found the website for Hot Springs Resort and took pictures of my campsite i had reserved and other pictures of their website. When i went back there they admitted it was their website. I would not stay at Hot Springs Resort. If it's dark, late, or they are busy, you are probably out of luck even with a reservation.

Desert Dirt Camping at Its Best

There is a certain charm about desert camping in January, daytime temperatures are comfortable and nighttime pleasant enough without being bitter cold. Having a hot pool of water nearby to soak in when temps drop into the twenties is nice resource. The pools are segregated into men and women areas and clothing is optional. If one is disturbed by well worn bodies of all sorts of shapes and sizes the hot spring resort down the road has private pools one can reserve for privacy. It is a community pool in an area known for odd folks.

Rejuvenating!

This place is awesome! The pools are relaxing, tranquil, and rejuvenating. Excellent hiking and you must rent the RAD POWER bicycles. You have an option to rent a private pool for 10 bucks though the main baths are excellent. Ryan Thomas runs the place with a team of docents/volunteers who live on site. Many options to suit any traveler and in November we went to Tecopa Takeover, a lovely music fest!
