Tent Camping

CIR has reserved camp sites for the group.

If you'd like to join us, you will need to bring all of your own camping gear (tent, sleeping gear, etc.) and most of your own food. We will prepare one group dinner at Furnace Creek Campground, but you must prepare the other three dinners plus four breakfasts and five lunches. We will supply stoves, pots and pans, and ice at Furnace Creek Campground for your use.

At Furnace Creek, the sites have water, flush toilets and tables; in addition, access to showers, a pool, restaurants, and a small store are nearby.

RV Camping

If you wish to stay in an RV, you'll need to make your own reservations for the trip duration (March 12, 13, & 14). Furnace Creek has RV sites with drinking water, picnic tables, flush toilets and a dump station. Reservations can be made at Recreation.gov.

If full, try Fiddler's Campground, next door.

First come, first served spaces are also available accross the street at Sunset Campground.

Furnace Creek Ranch

For those looking for more comfortable accomodations, the Ranch at Death Valley offers accommodations in a casual setting. The Ranch offers quiet, recently refurbished rooms, a spring-fed swimming pool, tennis courts, and is adjacent to the National Park Service Visitor’s Center. The Ranch also offers two restaurants, a bar. It is a sister resort to the Inn at Death Valley which is available at a much higher cost.
