The Ranch at Death Valley – Inside the Park
2.5 star property
8.0 out of 10, Very Good, (2113)
"Amazing location and facilities to say it is in the middle of death valley. It is a bit tired and dated, not the cleanest, but good value for money. We loved eating in the restaurant but be prepared for a wait, they do not allow pre-booking so first come first served, not sure how that works if you have a big party, but food is very good even if a little pricey. Local convenience store is good and the ice cream parlour is a must. "

"Our stay was 5/9 -5/10. We were very disappointed that we were not informed when we booked our room and made our spa appointments, that we would not be allowed on property until noon. This was a Mother's Day celebration for my daughters. They both took time off work and made childcare arrangements so we could take full advantage of the spa when it opened at 8:30. I received a call the day before our arrival confirming our appointments and that is when I was informed of the spa's reduced...
