Loved this campground. Well maintained, close to the visitor center which i visited several times. Excellent dish washing. Basins and access to water. Bathrooms clean and close by. Rangers gave me answers to all my questions. Couldnt praise more!!

Its a nice campground with minimal privacy. I wish there were availability in the tent only site.

Thank goodness we have been coming to Death Valley for 50+ years, the first three days were some of the worst winds we have seen and we will come again because the last 3 days were Beautiful! DV is always a possibility of anything and we love the adventure!!

Poorly designed campground overall sites are much too close together. If we had collected to have a fire, it wouldve burned up the Camper park next to us.

Nice campground that was well maintained with OK bathrooms. Convenient outdoor sink dishwashing facilities..good location next to the Park visitor center.

Great spot. Hope you get the closed roads fixed before next year.

Not much privacy, but no fault of the campground - it's not called "Lots of Trees Valley." Bizarre views and nice bathrooms. I would not camp here in a tent when I visited as the winds were extreme and some tents blew away - bring sturdy stakes.

Clean campground, water at sink and flush toilets. No showers. No wifi and cell signal is spotty.

Great facilities, clean and functional! The Rangers and hosts were great! Close to store and restaurant!

Very windy so be prepared. Too windy to walk trails for us but enjoyed driving to stovepipe well and bad water road. Very enjoyable and viewing was great.

The bathrooms were clean. The campground host was making the rounds frequently. On one evening during our visit. someone a couple of RV's away was running their generator past the allowed hours and the camp ground host stopped by right away to let them know that they needed to shut off their generator. The host(s) is/are doing a very good job. We stayed for 10 days and the sanitary dump was out of order the entire time we were there. We used the dump station up at Sunset. That was a minor inconvenience. We enjoyed our stay at Furnace creek campground.

First of all making someone sign-in to give a survey for your benefit is not the brightest of ideas. I definitely want to mention our sight, we were in 042, was positioned very badly to be able to back in. I had to drive into someone else's sight to do it. I asked their permission first of course. On the Bright Side, It was nice to see you have washing sinks for the people dry camping. However, I was disappointed to see people sign up for the Full Hook-up Sights, as they are limited, and then see several use those sights that did not need or use the full hook-up services in the 4 days we were there. I suggest you improve your map and sign-in instructions on the website.
