Great place to stop.

    Can't beat the Price

    RV park about 4 miles north of Beatty. Level, graveled, large sites with full hookup. No privacy between sites.. Clean bathrooms and showers. Has laundry and a small rec room. Reasonably priced at $25 and Manager very friendly. Biggest downside is road noise.

    Stovepipe Wells Campground — Death Valley National Park

    It's All About Location

    The Stovepipe Wells Campground/RV Park's strength is its location. It's in the middle of Death Valley National Park so you can more easily reach the more remote highlights compared to the Furnace Creek area.  However, if you want to be in the middle of the activity, head to Furnace Creek.  

    The RV area of Stovepipe Wells is just an open field with hook-ups spaced with just enough room for a rig to fit in between. Thus, you are right on top of your neighbors, which is weird since there's so much wide open space here.  I think if you didn't need hook ups or had a tent you might be able to spread out more than we did.

    While we were there in December 2019, the wifi was non-existent and the power was very intermittent.  In fact, we went two days with no power at all, which was really unfortunate since we paid for the hook up.  Also, restrooms are quite a walk away from the hook up area, so if you are counting on using the bathrooms, be prepared to walk a bit to either the gas station or across the street to the hotel lobby area.  

    We were promised a refund for the days we didn't receive the services we paid for but they never followed through and the employees seemed powerless to do anything to help.  Kind of a let down. When we return to Death Valley, we'll probably stay closer to Furnace Creek.

    Clean and great amenities!

    Awesome RV park and amenities if you're going to be in Lone Pine for a while. It's on the outskirts of downtown Lone Pine, but the views are beautiful of the mountains and the RV park is spacious with plenty of room to get your steps in. Complimentary muffins and coffee from 7-9a daily which was very hospitable and kind.

    We spent a few days in the Alabama Hills and then came here for full hookups during the week. It was a great combo.

    The internet worked pretty well for the most part for work emails and video and live stream. AT&T service was 2 out of 4 bars and worked just fine for us.

    The grounds and amenities are very clean and the staff is friendly. The week was quiet, but as the weekend rolled around almost every site was full. It would be even better if we had more space between neighbors, but I'm still giving it a 5 star because it was perfect for the area.

    We will definitely be back.

    Stovepipe Wells Village RV Park — Death Valley National Park

    Why pay $40 when the adjacent NPS campground is $14?

    The Stovepipe Wells Village RV park is a different (and privately owned) RV campground nearly adjacent to the NPS-run Stovepipe Wells Campground. 

    Open year-round, this is one of the priciest places to stay in Death Valley charging $40 a night for a parking lot drive in site with hookups. There are very few sites here (14 in total) and they do take reservations.  The property is managed by the hotel across the road and you have to check in for the RV park there. You also have access to the hotel facilities (ie. pool) if you pay the $40.

    Stovepipe wells RV park has air and water at the gas station/market (where the RV park is).  Gas here was almost 2$ cheaper than in Furnace Creek (about 25 miles away). There is also a general store minimart with souvenirs here in Stovepipe Wells Village.  Beer, water and soft drinks were surprisingly very cheap considering how far removed you are from civilization. A good hub for a sunrise or sunset hike up the sand dunes or an early start at Mosaic Canyon. Not too far from the Artists Drive.

    Other than pool access at the hotel, this site doesn't offer much more than the NPS site next door which is only $14. The only reason we considered staying here was that the NPS site is only open during 'season' beginning in mid-October, so it was the only site actually available when we went.

    Furnace Creek Campground — Death Valley National Park

    Perfect Campground in Death Valley

    Stayed for two nights in a 22’ RV at one of the full hook-up sites. Next time I come back to Death Valley, either RV or tent, I’ll probably stay here.

    Location is amazing. There’s a gas station and general store close by to pick up any supplies you’d need. About a 30 minute drive from the Mesquite sand dunes and Mosaic Canyon, about 20 minutes from Artist’s Drive, 25-30 minutes from Badwater Basin, 10 minutes from Zabriskie Point. You’re close to tons of things but we also got killer night skies once we walked a couple minutes away from our campsite.

    No wifi, expect limited cell service. You can make reservations online.

    The Oasis at Death Valley Fiddlers' Campground

    An entire resort

    So this place is super pretty and green the only thing green in this entire valley it  has an actual resort, with hotel rooms, they do have an RV park with hook ups but I would call the resort to inquire, anyway they have a golf course, horseback riding is available which I did as a teenager here, a nice pool, shopping, etc...

    When you see the gas station it's right behind that is the Fiddlers’ Campground.

    Campsites are $24 per night. NO hookups, no pull-throughs, no sewer or electric... just basic back-in sites.

    on their website it states with your nightly rental, guests enjoy the Ranch’s natural spring-fed swimming pool, shower facility, coin-operated laundry which I did check out and is nice, and sports courts including a Tennis Court, Shuffleboard, Volleyball, Bocce Ball, and Basketball Court. 

    Your nearby to the  Ranch’s restaurants and the General Store for camping supplies, groceries, and souvenirs.

    I took pictures of the entire park from the camp grounds, the rv park, hotel and the shops. A lot of parking at well.

    The place is nice and near the musquito dunes. There is a shop at waking distance and a gas station. This is inside death valley National Park.
    Most of the campground is rvs. It's first come first served. The ticket can be bought at entrance. There is plenty of room here at New Years eve.

    Cute, friendly RV Park

    Dave, the manager, is very friendly and helpful. The sites are all gravel pull through and the RV Park is right in the middle of town on the main strip. Cute little shops nearby to walk to as well as a BBQ restaurant 3 short blocks away.

    This was my very first RV experience and Dave kindly helped me get all my hookups set up. I would definitely stay here again if I come back this way.

    Lake Olancha RV Park & Campground / Westside of Death Valley

    Tranquility

    A lovely site, both scenic and peaceful. Was very quiet when we stayed. The small lake was ideal for a bit of casual kayaking and nature watching - mostly birds and dragonflies. Charming and spacious, the informality of the site was a refreshing change. Owing to it being quiet, we spent most of our time there in one of the riverside overlooks that provided seating, a table & a grill (as well as being a vantage point for watching nature and launching the kayaks.

    The only slight negative was that it was the only one of 10 we used on this trip that offered full hook-ups but no WiFi (5G service was adequate though). Would also benefit with the addition of more than just the single shower/toilet unit (which contrary to another review was of more than adequate size)

    Sunset Campground — Death Valley National Park

    Basic RV-friendly campground

    Sunset campground is one of three campgrounds in the Furnace Creek area. Furnace Creek campground has full hookups for RVs, can be reserved and is often full. Texas Springs campground is more tent friendly, can handle smaller RVs but does not have hookups, and is first come first served. Sunset campground is a large flat gravel lot, no hookups and no reservations. The advantage is that it's really big, with a lot of overflow capacity and so if you can't find a spot at the other two, there's likely an available spot here. It'll be close to other RVs and the campground itself isn't pretty, but it is surrounded by beautiful hills.

    We were here in late January, and the lot was probably a quarter full, so our views weren't blocked and we were able to find a spot immediately. Next time I would try Texas Springs first and if that's full (it was most nights while we were there) I'd go to Sunset. You drive in, select your spot and pay at one of the pay station.

    The location is central -- it's just across the street from the Ranch at Death Valley (which has a fancy general store and some restaurants, including an ice cream shop). Gas at the filling station was $1.50 a gallon more than at Stovepipe Wells. The campground is walking distance to the Death Valley visitor center. It's pretty central to most of the sights in the area.

    Great jumping off spot.

    Very clean little rv park. Booked after reading an article about Beatty and it was time to see more of my state. Rhyolite ghost town, Beatty museum, Death Valley to name a few places there are super close by. Wild burros still through occasionally for an added surprise.

    Met our needs

    If you like resort-like campgrounds, you will not be happy here. It was a good base camp for us to explore Death Valley National Park. The manager, TJ, does an amazing job of keeping everything well-maintained. The town is sketchy. JJ’s barbecue was excellent food. The visitor center was very helpful. There is a nearby Denny’s and Subway within the casino. Bathrooms were clean. Burros frequent the campground at night. Clean laundry facility, reasonable.

    Furnace Creek Campground — Death Valley National Park

    Great Campground for Exploring Death Valley

    Perfect base camp for exploring Death Valley National Park. It's located a quarter mile from the Furnace Creek Visitor Center where you can check in to pay the park fee and ask the rangers any questions. They always post the current weather and encourage visitors to stay safe in the heat. It's about 20 minutes from main attractions in the park including the Mesquite Flat Sand Dunes, Zabriskie Point and Badwater Basin Salt Flats.

    Campground Pros: Nice bathrooms and large sinks for dishes (also with potable water), Sizable camping spots, great location

    Campground Cons: Very little shade, plan to bring a canopy if you are tent camping, no showers

    Overall a great campground - just make sure you're visiting when the weather is decent. Super hot temps can ruin the experience pretty quick - and fill your tank before you drive into the park!

    Furnace Creek Death Valley

    Spaces were roomy, pull through had plenty of room for our tow vehicle, trailer and another vehicle. Good sized area with picnic table and enough space for a large pop up and tent. Full hookups were nice, be prepared for high temps even in the spring. It was over 100 in April but the overnight temps were very comfortable.

    No protection from the elements

    This is the same basic campgrounds you get through this entire Death valley National park... 

    The thing this park is missing is  SHADE for starters... please be aware of how hot it is here and that the sun has no mercy so please pack a pop-up, hat, etc....

    anything to keep you shaded from the elements.

    Besides that, they do have nice picnic tables at each spot and you can fit two smaller tents at each spot if needed so you are sharing the cost with some buddies... which is always good.

    trash cans available and recycle areas for your propane tanks... 

    which this entire park has and I love seeing that.

    Mother nature needs all the help she can get.

    Not much privacy for campers or RVers... Its a parking spot with lines showing your area.. NOT MUCH ELSE

    Nice handwashing stations.. BRING YOUR OWN SOAP

    Bathrooms could be a little cleaner but you have flushing toilets and water to wash your hands. Bring your own soap they do not provide.

    They have potable water

    Stunning views

    But like I said basic and shadeless...

    Perfect for a bunch of friends driving out for sure it does have pros and your right by all the action.

    cheers.

    Beatty RV Park

    Okay for one night

    There is a place to do laundry, one bathroom with shower per gender. You need the key code to use the bathroom. The place is right next to the main highway that is very busy, so there is much traffic noise. But for only 25.00 a night for full hookup, it is a good place to rest for the day/evening. I stayed one night, got my laundry done and sewage dumped and house batteries recharged in my 30 ft RV.

    OK

    Decent RV area with large, generally level, sites with vegetation in between. Bathrooms and showers not the cleanest. Friendly staff. Not a ton to do in the area except for Darwin Falls.

    Stunning views, great location

    Had a great experience at Siesta Ranch. The proximity to Alabama Hills and the privacy and convenience of full hookups coupled with views of the Eastern Sierras sold it for me. Would stay again!

    Sunset Campground — Death Valley National Park

    Worst campground in one of the most beautiful national parks!

    Our four-day visit to Death Valley National Park happened to line up with their rare Superbloom, so we had to beat the crowds to get a campsite. Unfortunately, this landed us in Sunset Campground, one of the NPS’s worst campgrounds, in one of the most beautiful parks.

    Sunset Campground -- much more of a parking lot than a campground -- is everything we don’t want in a campground: sites are cramped, scenery is nonexistent, and there was nothing to stop the insane wind from destroying our tent that had lasted us every day of our six-month trip thus far.

    We don’t blame Death Valley - we loved this park! Home to the lowest, driest, hottest place in the country, Death Valley is surprisingly full of life and gorgeous scenery. We loved hiking, chasing the wildflowers, watching the sunsets each night, following the scenic drives, and lounging on the porch of the fancy Furnace Creek Inn.

    For two nights, we suffered through Sunset Campground, but for our third and fourth night, we purchased a backcountry permit, which allowed us to park and camp along the park’s dirt roads, at least one mile from any paved roads. These were the nights we’ll remember fondly throughout our time in Death Valley. Take our advice and skip right over Sunset Campground.

    The Oasis is AMAZING

    The campground is part of the Oasis Resort, located by the Ranch. The amenities for the Ranch are included in the campground fees. The actual campground area is a gravel parking lot with 50’ parking areas for RVs.

    Furnace Creek Campground — Death Valley National Park

    Trees!

    Best campground in Death Valley. It's still crowded and can be noisey during the day, but pretty quiet at night. Great stargazing! We were lucky enough to get a campsite with trees, provides much needed privacy and shade! Great restrooms, fire pit and table at each site. RV spots as well. Dumpsters and store nearby.

    Furnace Creek Campground — Death Valley National Park

    Awesome campground

    I love that they have separate parts of the campground for RVs and tents so you don’t have to hear generators if you’re tent camping. Our site had some trees that we pitched the tent under for shade. Bathrooms were clean with running water and a dishwashing area too.

    Great location!

    The best part about the campground is the location! Super easy to get to all the great sights. We were tent camping in site 14 which has an RV spot, fire pit and a picnic table. We were across the street from the bathrooms and they are flush and have a dishwashing station. The campground was quiet even on New Year’s Eve! Great December camping

    Stovepipe Wells Campground — Death Valley National Park

    It’s a parking lot

    [Internet. There was full 3G signal for Verizon but no service for T-Mobile. Speedtest wouldn’t run. Verizon was usable in that you could download and upload but it took a long time. From my iPhone, I could send photos via iMessage but not SMS.]

    [Rig. Mercedes Sprinter. 22 feet]

    Dump station? - Yes Water fill? - Yes Clean site? - Yes Clean bathroom? - Yes Flush toilet? - Yes Showers? - No Laundry? - Haha no Dish washing sink? - Yes

    We stayed in the massive parking lot side. There is a few full hookup sites that are reservable. The parking lot is first-come-first-served. It serves its purpose as a place to stay near the dunes. Nothing more. The Stovepipe Village is right next to the campground. There’s a general store, a motel and a saloon. The store has some killer Blue Bunny ice cream sandwiches and some comfy rocking chairs outside for when you eat your ice cream.

    It’s basic and served it’s purpose well. No red flags. 4-stars
