The town itself is nothing special, but if you don't want to stay in the park this is the closest town. There are several other larger towns within reasonable driving distance if you want more restaurants, grocery stores, etc. The main reason to be here is to visit Death Valley National Park -- which is beyond amazing. El Valle Mexican restaurant (which is really in Amargosa Valley, NV) is really good.

There is not much if anything here but that is what you come here for. It's an old motel, with an amazing story, that could use a bit of TLC but the rooms are clean, the air conditioning works, and the water was hot in the shower. A great place to stay and show the photos to your friends.

A tiny historic town looking much the way it did 100 years ago. A tour of Marta Becket's murals in the Opera House is highly recommended; we can only hope that performances once again take place in this unique hall. The restaurant currently sits empty, so bring anything you want to eat with you. There is a refrigerator in the common area you can use to store some food. The surrounding Armargosa Desert stretches out east, north, and south of the village as far as the eye can see. Amazingly, there is an aquifer deep underground fed by the Armargosa River (also underground at this point). So there are some ranches and tiny Nevada casino towns nearby (but not too nearby). For more info about the Armargosa, visit the Armargosa Conservancy's website at armargosaconservancy dot org.

The information and warning to refuel before entering the National Park are true. The price of fuel in NP is really higher. Stock up on plenty of water, the temperature is really high. Exertion in the heat will make up for the beauty that appears to be dead, but it is not.

DEATH VALLEY JUNCTION IS CLOSER TO THE PARK BUT THE PROBLEM THERE IS NO CONVENIENT STORE TO BUY FOR FOOD AND NO GASOLINE STATION. HOPING SOMEDAY THERE WILL BE MORE HOTEL AND CONVENIENT STORE TO BE PUT UP.FURNACE CREEK IS VERY EXPENSIVE AND PANRUMP IS VERY FAR TO TRAVEL TO GET A HOTEL ,FOOD AND GAS.

It's close to the East entrance to Death Valley, which makes it a less expensive alternative to resort accommodations in the valley. It's also close to gas and food, which is just 7 miles away to the North, in Nevada (Nevada prices). Again, providing less expensive alternative to gas, and food in the valley.
