The grounds of this property are simply WOW! Absolutely no complaints on how the grounds were kept and the facilities. Don’t know if it was still off season but didn’t seem as well staffed (coffee shop, ice cream parlor) for how many people. The employees were all working their butts off so hats off to them. Check in/out was easy! Rooms were definitely older but still decent. Very geared towards family and kids so be prepared for that.

Very Good Stay

I stayed at The Ranch with a room on the second floor in building 8. The room was a good size and I enjoyed the balcony. The restaurants and shops were a 5+ minute walk from my location. The only negative was the cleanliness of my room. There was noticeable dirt on the floor.

You do not have much choice, but the Ranch was quite decent. Nice people, a bit expensive, but everyone seemed to be enjoying themselves. We had a nice stay.

Beautiful property, great amenities. Hospitality service was mediocre. Unfortunately, once you return from a day viewing the park, the food options on site are few, so be sure to plan ahead. My suggestion is to avoid the buffet. We enjoyed our trip to Death Valley, it is very beautiful and a must see at least once in a lifetime.

Good room, service was spotty

The alarm clock woke us up in the middle of the night. There is no daily housekeeping. That said, the room was nice, it was ready when we got there and checkin was flawless. Tried to use the text messages to get information about hotel and got no response.

Stayed in the cottages. They were spacious, clean, had a washer/dryer, microwave, fridge etc to make the stay easier. Pool was a great size. Food at the restaurants were tasty. Food items in general store were expensive, but expected. The overall accommodation had a relaxing resort feel.

This was one of the worst stays we have ever had. We stayed in one of the hotel rooms, the floors were not vacuumed, there were light bulbs missing in the lights, the bathroom door stuck when shutting it, the paint and wood was all chipped, nothing was dusted. The mattresses were very stiff and not comfortable. The food options are kind of slim the dinner buffet was not good and over priced. The breakfast buffet was ok but still over priced for what it was. The staff was not very inviting and most either yawn when trying to talk to them or were not very welcoming. Overall I was not impressed and will never stay there again. I also will not suggest staying at this hotel.
