    Great spot really!

    This location is right off the highway, which made it convenient for a quick stop. There was mild highway noise, but it wasn’t too bothersome, just a hum in the background. Occasionally, we’d hear burros in the distance, which added some character to the place. We stayed in a tent, and despite being close to the road, it was still a great spot to relax and enjoy the surroundings. Overall, a solid choice for a brief stay.

    joshua trees and flowers!

    we stopped while it was dark out, but it was pretty easy to spot. there’s a dirt road flanked by a cattle gate that’s marked on the map on this app if you zoom in. you can see the highway but it’s so quiet. there’s a minor sound of cars, but only if you strain your ears. we woke up in the morning to a pretty strong breeze, but it was still lovely. the hills in the distance are nice, and there’s some flowers and joshua trees scattered around the property. it was a great place to stop for a night!

    Easy access right off Hwy 95 for my Harley. Camp near the pond or around any of the many fire rings in the gravel parking area.

    Great for 1 night stay!

    Easy to find even in the dark. Nobody else was here so it was very peaceful. We had a great time as it’s not too hot here yet. This is such a unique area, I would come back next spring in a heartbeat!

    Really nice quiet spot right by the road of Death Valley national park

    There’s a road that takes you to the spot where you can camp, there’s concrete squares in a majority of the spots in a wide area but if you keep down the gravel road you’ll find cleared areas with fire pits, there’s even a road that you can park on top of a hill.

    BLM site off Death Valley Road, Nevada

    Quiet, remote BLM site. No amenities. 5 miles outside of Beatty, Nevada off of Death Valley Road.

    Incredibly Beautiful

    The lakebed is out of the way enough that it seems to be often completely abandoned. It’s quiet and striking and I had a nice clear, still night to appreciate stars like I don’t often see them. Bring water, and wood if you want a fire and you should be good. There’s one little fire ring built up of stones. I imagine you have to watch for rain as the bed of the lake is clay and a turn in weather could spell for a messy exit at the least. I had decent Verizon service, but it didn’t reach the back of the lakebed.

    Elevation 4020ft

    There really should be a spot to enter elevation on these forms. This time of year it makes all the difference in the world.

    No camping in the refuge

    Be careful, the location this takes you to is a wildlife refuge. It is posted as day use only, no camping. A super cool place to visit during the day. Be sure you are not on private property or within the refuge and there are spots to pull over to camp in your vehicle.

    Death Valley: Dispersed Camping East Side of Park

    So much space!

    Large space, you can park on the pads or the dirt. Very close to the park. Right off the highway and easy to find. No water, no restrooms and no cell service. Be careful if you tent camp off the pads. My tent got some holes from the tiny rocks, even with a good foot print. Some are just very pointy. Overall great free spot, can’t complain. Would definitely camp there again.

    Remote free camping

    This was so peaceful and quiet. The road is gravel but recommend 4x4 with clearance.

    The new setup is the sites are designated and must be reserved at the visitor center. The Ranger was really helpful.

    A place to sleep off the road

    Was looking for a place to stop for the night. This place was easy enough to find. Indicated by two reflective stakes, otherwise it would be easy to miss. I parked on the dirt road after the cattle gate but in the morning realized there is a pullout area farther down and another dirt part people have been using to drive out into the brush area.

    Distant road noise but that doesn't bother me.

    Gravel area. Easy access in small Class A.

    Gravelly area off the highway. Far enough away to dampen road noise. There's a pond there, which we did not explore due to late arrival. Easy to drive a motorhome around.

    Death Valley: Dispersed Camping East Side of Park

    Great spot!

    Super easy to find a few miles before the entrance to Death Valley. Theres a ton of pads to park on, in a few different sections along the road. The section I was in had 10+ pads, each with their own fire pit. I was lucky enough to get the whole section to myself so it was very quiet and peaceful! Definitely recommend, but no water or bathrooms so come prepared.

    Boondocking site in dry desert lake bed

    Very dark sky, incredible stars on a moonless night. Don’t trust Google Maps: it’ll send you past the lake. Look for turnoff at N37.17083, W117.15278.

    Easy Free Camping outside of Death Valley

    Location is good, right outside the park. Not much for views and it’s right on the side of the road. As others have said there are a bunch of Cement pads that you can put a RV or camper on. No very private and spots are close together but it works for a night.

    Death Valley: Dispersed Camping East Side of Park

    Would recommend

    Free sites close to the park entrance? Score. Was here in March and there were about 15 other vehicles camping. Everyone was spread out and noise was very minimal. Only downside is lack of privacy. I camped near some tall grass so I could pee with some cover.

    Death Valley: Dispersed Camping East Side of Park

    Just great, exposed to wind.

    “The slabs” offer plenty of room and nice level parking. I had a great stay and then moved to a more sheltered campground for a period of extended heavy wind. Exactly 5.5 miles before the Death Valley Park sign at the east end on 190. Did not have any reception- as is the case in most of the park. Can’t beat the price!

    Added a video.

    Same as the above reviews. I added a video clip from close to the center of the area. There is an old broken down RV marking the area.

    If you need a FREE place to sleep, that has level ground, this is it.

    Thanks to Dyrt and the reviews on this spot, my wife and I had a great experience staying in Death Valley; the site was easy to find, and there were many spot available for use. We did not experience windy nights like others did, but we may have just got lucky. 

    Great views for sunrise, sunset, and star gazing (looking away from Las Vegas light pollution).

    We had to drive out with our trash, but that was expected. Campers should be mindful of the exposed pipes that can damage cars and hurt people/animals.

    Will 100% stay again.

    Death Valley: Dispersed Camping East Side of Park

    "The Pads"

    This spot has a ton of abandoned flat concrete pads, mostly level and mostly accessible. On some of them the surrounding dirt has washed away so it's a big drop from the pad to the ground, and some have begun to lean and are no longer level.

    The area isn't beautiful or amazing but this makes for a good staging area for Death Valley, or for an overnight en route to your destination. There isn't much to do right in this camp area, but it's peaceful and quiet and a good resting spot.

    Zero cell service in this area with Verizon and ATT.

    Easy access from Hwy 190, and there is plenty of room to spread out. There were 4 other campers when we stayed here mid week in early April and we were all nicely spaced from each other.

    Wind picked up in the afternoon and lasted all night and all the next morning, and the weather was warm but not brutally hot, but you have no relief from the sun here. We had to keep the windows closed overnight because the wind felt like it was going to break our windows off, so it got a little warm in the RV overnight.

    No amenities whatsoever so please pack out all your waste and dog and human poo. We were pleasantly surprised at how little garbage there was here.
