Campsite was great! Will be back! If you book the site quickly like I did you should know the sites are stacked from the road/parking. So, you may have a bit of a walk to your site. You also only get one parking spot with overflow across the street.

No Service

We absolutely loved staying at Furnace Creek. We were there in mid-April and the weather was beautiful but hot during the day. The campground was completely full but it didn't feel crowded. Definitely recommend the walk-to sites. We booked this site (142) in conjunction with our friends who booked (141), and it was awesome. The two sites were on either side of a small stand of trees -- 142 is on the east side, so gets some afternoon shade. If your tent is a 4 person or smaller, you could be able to tuck it into the tree stand to provide more privacy, shade, and protection from wind. And it was definitely windy at night!
Campground hosts were pleasant and the facilities were all very clean. A warm and welcoming atmosphere overall between other campers and staff. Would absolutely stay again!

I was in a tent walk-in site (#142) and was able to set up the tent amidst some trees to block out some of the wind and made it seem more private and quiet.

Tent Site 141 was by far the best camp site at Furnace Creek. Plenty of space, not on top of any other sites, and shade. The bathrooms (women's especially) were well maintained during the entire weekend long event.

Fill up a gas can before coming if planning to do a lot of driving in the park. Gas is expensive!

Perhaps we didnt read enough reviews and missed the part about high winds at night, but I wouldnt recommend camping here unless you have a good backup plan. We had to move to sleep in our car around 12:30am due to 40 mph winds. We ended up staying somewhere else outside of the park the next night since the winds were supposed to be high again. You can check at the visitor center and they have a board that shows the wind forecast.

The whole of Death Valley (that we saw in four days) was just delightful and much more beautiful than I had anticipated. The absence of trees/vegetation on the mountains really allows one to see the rugged beauty of the geology there.

We were tent camping - we were prepared for likely wind but the blowing sand was awful - impossible to cook. All in all, a good trip/visit, tho.
