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

My experiences at furnace creek campground are generally stellar. It's a lovely campground with great staff. However, camp hosts can get a little over zealous over charging an ebike at an empty site. I don't think this should be a big deal. If I could reserve a site with full hookups I would but they never seem to be available. Just turn a blind eye unless it becomes ridiculously pervasive anyway

We had a wonderful visit. Such a pretty place. Unfortunately many areas were closed due to a recent storm/flooding event. But pretty cool to see standing water in formerly dry creek beds. Perfect temperature there in the winter. Our entire Hitched4fun com crew had a blast.

Camp Host was a bit over reaching our first night, and also found his sarcastic innuendos about our group who were gathering for the third yes unnecessary. Maybe a rough day or two, but after that all was good. Great location with easy access to visitor center, The Ranch and a short drive for dinner at the Inn.

Due to circumstances beyond anyone's control, the park had major flooding prior to our visit. The campsite we reserved was in bad shape and we were offered an alternate site. This was greatly appreciated. A lot of the roads were closed due to the floods making things very limited. Other than that, it was ok. The rangers were accommodating considering the circumstances.

Not exactly the fault of the campground, but no work has been done to fix any roads for the last few storms.

I checked in late and work before dawn to see the sunrise. I went according to the map and saw what I could see, coming back to check in. I find this strange since I paid for the site but still have to check in. Staff was cold but adequate. Campsite was really full so this could be part of that. Desert camping is what it is, and Furnace Creek was Bette than most. Good trip and would stay again if in the area.

Furnace Creek campground was a pleasant campsite. It was nice to have a fire ring, table, and close access to bathroom. Also so close to the visitor center and in the heart of the park.
