If you need anything it’s no problem for me (or my husband) to meet you- we live on property too! This is a very safe, quiet place with desert and mountain views. Security cameras for added safety. Menus, brochures & maps on Death Valley are provided. Please note, there are multiple accommodations. Each entrance is private and totally separate but you may meet a fellow traveler if you explore the property. I love the majestic view of Mt. Charleston!
