"Beatty, NV was about 20 degrees cooler than Death Valley. If you want to stay out of the valley while visiting this is a great place to do so.
Full hook ups, pull throughs, and easy to get to."
"We were mapping our trip and Beatty won the draw for mileage. The Space Station win out. They were the cheapest. The host was very friendly and they were there until late."
"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."
"With shade!"
"Our site was level and clean, the electric was stable and the water pressure was okay. The manager was friendly, the price was great and the trash cans convenient so why not 5 stars?"
"A bit noisy because of its location near the hwy. Has all the necessary hook ups. Has a laundry room and restrooms with showers but you need a code."
"There are some trees and picnic areas, restrooms, drinking water, and trash bins. There are two gas stations and mini marts, as well as a little diner with some basic food offerings."
$35 / night
"We could not get into the full hookup campground in Death Valley so opted to stay here. D.V. is an easy 45 minute drive. This park is a gravel lot behind a small casino. Clean and wide spaces."
"Full hook up for $35/night, 30 months from Death Valley-easy drive. It’s basically a parking lot but we’ll maintained, WiFi, a store and casino, showers and bathrooms."
$40 / night
"We stayed recently when it was 116 during the day, but since the sites had electric, we gave it a shot. The first two sites we tried had bad electrical setups."
"General store behind the campground with easy access to gas and bathrooms make this a nice spot. Popularity makes it a little crowded but still quiet"
"[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."
"Easy Campground, generator hours 7 - 7, but also 14 places with electricity.
But perfect location if you want to do some stargazing in the Death Valley."
"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."
"Camp near the pond or around any of the many fire rings in the gravel parking area."
$30 - $60 / night
"This campground is right in Death Valley and has low prices but limited facilities as you would expect in the National Parks. There are 136 sites all with picnic tables and fire rings."
"We stayed in site 85 with our travel trailer which was close to the toilets and wash station. The site was roomy and level."
RangerSpaces 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.
GuideThis campground is right in Death Valley and has low prices but limited facilities as you would expect in the National Parks. There are 136 sites all with picnic tables and fire rings. There are flush toilets, water and an RV dump station on site. 9 back in RV sites have hookups and there are 9 pull through sites with hookups. There is a visitor center and small store within 300' of the campground. There is a gas station a short drive down the highway. There is very little shade. Be sure to have an awning of shade cloth with poles as it gets warm.
My site 055 shares a paved pad with 054. This would be great if you are camping with someone in another RV.
Get up early for sunrise at Zabriskie Point.
GuideCame here for four days without reservations for Furnace Creek. This campground is a no frills flat parking lot with bathrooms and dish washing stations, trash dumpsters, and a decent dump and water filling station. If you are self contained or even in a tent, it is doable. However, no trees, lots of neighbors with generators. I give it three stars for: with the Senior Access Pass, $7. The dump station/water filling was clean and easy, and the location cannot be beat (except by the Furnace Creek CG which I would always prefer to stay in, if we make reservations way in advance). Texas Springs up the road is a good more traditional camping facility, no reservations, but smaller rigs and tents are the norm there. You could fit our 35 foot fifth wheel up there in some of the sites if you are lucky. Cell service, as in most National Parks is iffy at best, for a fee you can get Wifi across the road at the Ranch/Oasis. There is golfing and restaurants and a small grocery store. Location of this campground is right across from the Furnace Creek Visitors Center. Easy walking, biking and hanging out.
RangerThis campground was quiet and clean and centrally located in the park. No hookups, but there is a dump station with potable water available near the entrance.
The spaces are REALLY close together but when we were there the park was mostly empty…maybe a dozen other campers in the whole park. Tent camping only on the lower loop…upper loop had MANY large, pull through spaces. Our camper is small, so the space felt big though. Picnic tables and fire pits at each site. Self serve pay stations, discount for Access Pass holders, I will definitely stay here again if I come through Death Valley again.
GuideTexas Springs upper loop is for RV's and Vans, but no generators allowed. So it's lovely and quiet at night. If you want to run your generator you need to go to Sunset Campground closer to the road. Texas Springs lower loop is for tents only (though some tent campers moved up to the upper loop).
We moved to Texas Springs upper loop from Furnace Creek. It is first come / first served with checkout at noon. So if you find a site without a tag before noon, you can claim it. But if you are there before noon and there is a tag in place for that day (and there are no "place holders" like chairs or items on the picnic table) the ranger will not let you claim it until noon. We were there over a holiday weekend (Presidents day on Monday) we got in on Thursday morning and it was wide open with many choices, by the time we left on Sunday there were people asking if they could call "dibs" on your site when you left. I would suggest coming in Sunday - Thursday on a regular week.
Most sites in the middle and to the right as you come in are pull through, but the left row is all back in. If you get a choice, pick a site at the top or bottom of a row for better views. Our neighbors were all very relaxed and friendly. There is NO shade. It was a bit too windy to put up our pop-up, but we just stayed in the shade of our tiny trailer.
The bathrooms were clean and pleasant, the water troughs for dishwashing etc were next to the bathrooms, and there were water spigots in each row as well. There are no showers and grey water on the ground is forbidden, so no solar or outside showers. If you want a shower you can get a day pool pass and access to the showers at Furnace Creek Ranch ($14) or Stovepipe Wells ($5).
My cel provider is T-Mobile and I had full bars, but it was 3G! I heard neighbors on Verizon complain about being on roaming. We had no signal on our Visible phone.
We saw a lot of coyotes - keep your little dogs close!
LegendIt’s been said before, but I’ll say it again–“all of the campgrounds in the valley are glorified parking lots, some more obviously than others.” Fiddler’s Campground is one of the more lot-like, but there is shade with a row of trees on the south side of the camping lot. The campsite is closer to the National Park Visitor’s Center than even the Park’s campground, Furnace Creek. While it's a very utilitarian campground, it's a good central location to explore the park from Golden Canyon to Zabriski Point to the Mesquite Flat Sand Dunes to Badwater Basin.
It is run by the Oasis Ranch at Death Valley Resort, so you have access to all of the services provided there including the lovely golf course, pool, showers and reliable wifi. During our two visits to DVNP, we’ve spent at least one night here just to grab a shower, swim, and wifi update. While these sites are usually booked months in advance, you can find an occasional open night during the mid-week.
The campground bathrooms have clean flush toilets and hand washing sinks, and a dishwashing sink with good tasting potable water just outside of the bathrooms. The bathrooms by the campsites were pretty clean, but the pool was very clean as was the shower/ locker rooms.
The campsites are stacked pretty tightly together but there’s plenty of room for big rigs. Unlike Texas Springs campground up the hill, Fiddler’s Campground allows gas generators. There’s no need with all of the sunshine, an appropriately sized solar panel system will provide you with all the power you need. We’ve run for over a decade on solar panels and saves a ton of money on campgrounds.
The resort also offers a few restaurants, gift shops and a small grocery store with enough options to feed yourself in case you didn’t bring much food. We highly recommend the milkshakes at the ice cream shop, they are expensive but worth the drive to the valley alone!
Mobile service was pretty spotty, we had Verizon which seemed to have a good signal in the morning until more people woke up and then everything slowed down. Service throughout the park was pretty spotty too.
GuideThis is locally known as Bombo's Pond, It is on BLM land with no permit required. Guessing you need a license to fish. Not sure. This is a beautiful spot however I did take one star for the cell service. I only had one bar on T Mobile with my cell booster. Otherwise, it was an awesome spot. I was there at the end of May. Since it was already getting hot, I only stayed one night, It's 5 minutes from Beatty where you can find all the services you need. No amenities whatsoever. When you pull in the pond is on the right with a large flat area you can use or drive towards the pond and there's a road to the left that takes you down to an area that looks like group camping right by the water. There were about 15 burros with babies hanging out there. There is a road to the right as well, but it is a dead end because of a deep wash. You can get around it walking if you go towards the water carefully and duck some brush to get back up on the trail. I decided to move there for the shade but I backed my 28 ft Class C to the end of the road so I could just pull out the next day. Little tight on the turn. Be aware this puts you right by the highway, but I had no issues with road noise. The pond is larger than I expected. Lots of trees, water plants, and birds. Several hiking trails. Just watch where you step for the burro road apples. Lol! Would definitely stay again.
GuideThis is a nice place to start your tour of Death Valley. We stayed in site 85 with our travel trailer which was close to the toilets and wash station. The site was roomy and level. There isn't a lot of vegetation, so you always have other campers in your line of sight. Unless you are a tent camper - those sites have nice trees around them. The site had a picnic table and fire ring, and was pretty easy to back into. You can see beautiful mountains all around, and gorgeous sunrises and sunsets. This campground is walking distance to the Furnace creek visitors center, the golf course and the 19th hole bar and grill. On T-Mobile I had 3-5 bars of 3G (so basic text and email), and I heard my neighbors complain of being on Verizon roaming.
It's important to note that the campsite does not have showers, and does not allow water on the ground at all - so you can't use your outside or solar shower. If you want a shower you need to buy a day pool pass at the Furnace Creek Ranch nearby ($14) or Stovepipe Wells ($5).
I think that the best option if you will be in the area for a while is to book a spot here for one or two days, then move to Texas Springs nearby or the other first come / first served campsites, or boondock areas after you have done some exploring.
