290 Rooms Including 80 new Cottages, 4 Restaurants, General Store, Spring-fed Pool, Sports Courts, Bike Rentals, Golf, and More!
The Energetic Epicenter
This former working ranch has been transformed into the family-friendly heartbeat of The Oasis at Death Valley. The 275-room hotel has been part of a $200 million renaissance and is the energetic center of activity in Death Valley. Set along Highway 190 next to the National Park Service Visitor Center, you can enjoy a classic town square with towering date palms and mission California architecture. You’ll find new restaurants, ice cream and coffee bar, general store with souvenirs as well as groceries, and you can have drinks and dinner in the must-see Last Kind Words Saloon – straight out of a western movie.
In the Middle of Your Death Valley Adventure
Guest rooms are adjacent to the Furnace Creek Golf Course on sprawling lawns with easy access to the ever-refreshing 87-degree spring-fed pool, sports courts and children’s playground. Many rooms open onto patios, while others have balconies overlooking the grounds. Plus, The Ranch offers horseback and carriage rides at our stables, Jeep rentals to explore the park in a rugged 4×4, and full 18-hole golf course – the lowest elevation course in North America.

Food + Drink
The Last Kind Words Saloon
One of the crown jewels of the revitalization efforts at the historic Ranch at Death Valley, The Last Kind Words Saloon brings the West of old to Death Valley. Featuring relics of the past such as movie posters, “Wanted!” fliers touting the misdeeds of outlaws, antique firearms, and taxidermied game animals, The Last Kind Words Saloon is a testimony to the days of a bygone era. Not to be upstaged by the decor, the menu ensures that guests leave touting the delicious steaks as much as the surroundings their meals were enjoyed in.

Mining for White Gold
Borax in Death Valley
The origin of The Oasis at Death Valley can be traced back to the discovery of borax. As the borax mines became more profitable, the Pacific Coast Borax Company built the Death Valley Railroad that carried borax from the mines to Death Valley Junction. The Ranch hotel first opened its doors for business in 1933.
