About Furnace Creek Campground

Furnace Creek Campground is the only NPS campground in the park that is reservable. All other NPS campgrounds operate on a first-come, first-serve basis.PLEASE NOTE: The actual availability of any first-come, first served-sites (FF) IS NOT reflected on the Recreation.gov website in real time.Advance reservations are highly recommended for Furnace Creek Campground during the reservation window (October 15 - April 15).  First-come, first-served sites (FF) at Furnace Creek Campground are rare and fill quickly on weekends, around holidays, and in days preceding and just after the reservation season.  When arriving without reservations, we recommend tent campers pack camp chairs and a propane stove for cooking as not all campsites in other park campgrounds offer picnic tables and fire rings.Death Valley has a total of 9 National Park Service campgrounds to choose from in this beautiful land of extremes. Six are open year-round. Three others are closed during summer months.  Please visit our official park website to assist with trip planning and to check out all of our camping options: https://www.nps.gov/deva/planyourvisit/camping.htm

Most of Furnace Creek campground is wide open with little privacy between campsites. However, site 88 was a good site. One side is the campground road and there are no sites across the road. There is a tree line that wraps around two sides increasing the sense of privacy. Only one side was open and the parking pad for the site was such that our van blocked site lines that direction. We had excellent views of the night sky and could hear parts of the dark sky presentation given by the interpretive rangers. The views of the mountains to the east were good as well. It was a short walk to the bathroom and the sinks for washing dishes or filling water bottles. I'd definitely choose this site again in the future.

Site 80 seems to be somewhat typical for much of Furnace Creek campground. It is out in the open on three sides with a thin tree line a short distance behind it. It's the desert so one can't expect much privacy in a campground. The sit is level, the facilities were nearby, and there was no real noise. The view of the night sky was good.

Lovely spacious sites.
The gold mine over by Beatty Nv needs replacing. It is within the park. The sun has almost completely ruined the sign. Cannot see enough to know the workings of it

Sites 107 and 108 were absolutely great. Some other sites were tiny, more like a parking lot. But these 2 had trees and space.

Great campground, relatively central to many hikes. It is a shame though, how many people had lights outside their campers and tents, as the night sky is amazing.
Plan to bring your recycling and compost home though. There is very limited recycling and no composting.
