Camp ground was quiet and orderly. The stopped blowing. Unbelievable lack of blooms. The flooding and the increasing global temperatures maybe whats

Dont wait until you are 70 to see Death Valley, like I did. Furnace Creek is a fine campground for your stay.

Plot 17 is too close to 16. Lots of kids and dogs. Feels more like an RV park these days. No showers still in campground and they charge $14 for a single shower at the Ranch.

The campground has a nice location for seeing the park but we probably should have just boondocked since there are no hookups here or even a shower. There is water and a sink behind the bathrooms. Also we were in site 17 and while the park was only 30% occupied (a guess-even though full campground was always posted) there was always someone placed in the site next to us, which was a diagonal site, almost at our trailer door, leaving us little privacy.

We had a great visit, but the campground was very busy with little privacy. Good for central location, but missing the majestic vibe of other NPS campgrounds.

Large campground but pretty quiet. Sites are pretty leveled & paved. Restrooms could use some work. Some of the lights are not working. Close to fuel (expensive), visitors center. Nice staging area to explore the park.

Great one-night stay. Campground was completely booked for the weekend. Restrooms were very clean. Neighbors were quiet and friendly no really loud partying going on.

Great sunrises and sunsets. Mosaic canyon was beautiful.

First time to Death Valley national Park. Thought it was fantastic, loved the landscapes. The campground was convenient & comfortable. We were in # 17 for two nights & I did think the way it was laid out it put you to close to the neighbor to the left. The had a crying baby in the middle of the night but we survived. Saw the sites that we could see with a 25 foot RV & I do plan to return to see more but with my truck next time.

It was a awesome campground, wish there is shower facility near by. Very convenient to all the major scenery point.

Furnace Creek campground is close to two hotels/resorts, and is not far from many attractions such as Badwater Basin, Artist Drive, and Zambriske Point.

Clean bathrooms and fire pits made it an enjoyable place to stay. Some sites are much smaller than others and have more or less tree cover. Site 17 was on the small side without tree cover.

Governor Newsome has earned his recall vote via the Furnace Creek reservation fiasco. Had reservation for 5 months and it was cancelled by stay at home order which was cancelled three days after the reservation was cancelled. So he couldn't have coordinated this with the NPS? Incompetence was not unexpected but disappointing nonetheless. Please factor this into your next vote involving a socialist.

Great campground with incredibly friendly and helpful staff in one of the most beautiful venues in the world. I only wish there were more sites with hookups, but the lack of hookups was only a minor inconvenience.
