First, realize that the map on the TripAdvisor page is wrong, and the resort is located on California 190 about 25 miles west of Stovepipe Wells and at the west end of the Panamint playa. It is in an incredibly wonderful desert location, with Naval top guns running up and down the valley, coupled with incredible quiet and solitude and... more

The Panamint Springs Resort is an oasis at the edge of the desert. The closest accomodations West are in Lone Pine and Olancha, a good hour's drive away. To the East you are in the heart of Death Valley and limited to Stovepipe Wells and Furnace Creek. There aren't a lot of options. What it has going for it is... more

While the staff was friendly enough, and the restaurant acceptable, the badly sagging old bed and paper thin walls between rooms makes us unable to recommend this place for lodging except in case of emergency or no other options available. I don't understand why the owner doesn't buy some decent beds and spend a little money to improve the interior... more

While the web site lists "air conditioning" as a "yes", under amenities, and it is an amenitie that we always require when booking a room, the AC a Panamint Springs is a joke. The AC is not individually controlled, but rather turned on and off for all 15 rooms by the clerk on duty. Some of the rooms have individual... more

We had planned to stay in Stovepipe, after an afternoon evening visit to Death Valley, but it was full. So we drove a bit further along the road and landed at Panamint Springs Resort. If you are driving the well worn tourist route of Yosemite to Vegas then this motel is a good break point for an early morning/late evening... more

We stayed at the Panamint Springs Resort for one night in September en route from Yosemite to Vegas. The motel is one of very few places to stay within Death Valley and offers reasonable value considering this. The room itself is nothing special; the furniture is basic, there’s no TV and the shower stall a little crumbling but it’s clean... more

At least that's what the stay felt like, after the comfort of Stovepipe Wells Village, which only cost about 30% more. I called a few days ahead of time, to verify we'd have cool, air-conditioned rooms. I was told they use a swamp cooler, but it keeps the rooms cool. I also verified there was a restaurant and pool...ok there's... more

I stopped one evening thinking I'd spend the night in their RV facility. At the restaurant I quickly realized $16.00 to $20.00 for a burger was way beyond the price of bringing in the supplies. But its a gold mine mentality, right? Then I asked the price of the night at the RV park. Its then I realized they must... more
