I really wanted to love The Ranch. I've been wanting to go for years to Death Valley and knew i'd stay there. Check-in was easy and all staff in person were great. The ice-cream parlor and gift shop areas were great. Our problem came at 3am when we were woken up by rustling noises to find a mouse on the counter. After calling the front desk they sent security who said he was delayed looking for a trap that couldn't be found. He was nice but couldn't really help. Luckily i had wipes to clean items near mouse droppings. We asked if he could get us a room change which he did. So we lugged all our stuff up the stairs (there's no elevator) at 4:30am to try and get some rest. I was disappointed that none of the hotel staff apologized or offered any type of discount for the issue. There was an uncovered outlet where you could see drywall gaps so i am guessing the mouse came from the wall.

Loved this place! Our first trip to Death Valley National Park & we were there 4 days. The Ranch was conviently close to the Badwater Basin (lowest point below sea level in North America), Artist Palette drive, Devil's Golf Course, Zabriskie Point, 20 Mule Team Canyon drive & if you're coming from the west, Father Crowley's Vista Point & Rainbow Canyon where fighter pilots train & the Sand Dunes. The grounds were very nice & walkable. Rooms have balconies or patios. Beds & pillows were very comfy. Nice, extra large bathroom with tiled shower. Adequate number of bath towels, standard quality. Ice machine & filtered water cooler. No refrigerator though. The old fashioned Ice Cream Parlor had the best ice cream sundies! Nice gift shop/general store. On-site restaurants available. The Saloon was our favorite. Very nice pool too. I highly recommend the Ranch at the Oasis if your travels take you through Death Valley.
