Wonderful stay. A bit worn which is why only 4 stars instead of 5. However, the location right inside the park was great as was the hotel complex. I would stay there again.

​We booked a last-minute trip to Death Valley and everything went incredibly smooth. The cottages were perfect for us—super comfortable and clean. But the absolute best part was the pool. Jumping into that amazing water after a hot day exploring the desert was heaven. ​If you're thinking about booking, just do it. Highly recommend!

Me and my friends had a decent stay at Ranch at Death Valley. The property was very beautiful and had plenty of amenities. The location is right by the top attractions, which was very convenient. The working air conditioner made it comfortable in July. Some things that could be improved are the cleaning, as the furniture, rugs, and carpet were dirty. There were also some strong smells present in the cottage that we stayed in. The restaurant on the property had vegetarian options for the vegetarian in our group, and all of the food was tasty overall. The dead animals on the walls made the vegetarian in our group feel a bit uncomfortable. To summarize, we had a great time at Death Valley, and this hotel was convenient.
