Pros & cons

PROS

  • Open 24/7 for EV charging
  • Conveniently located along CA-190 near Furnace Creek
  • Two Level 2 Blink ports (approx. 6.7 kW each)

CONS

  • No confirmed restrooms or other services at the charger
  • Not an official NPS-listed site and may not appear on park maps
  • Level 2 speeds only; slower than DC fast charging

Overview

This is a practical stop, not a viewpoint or trail—an electric vehicle charging spot branded by Blink along CA-190 near the Furnace Creek area. It runs 24 hours a day and offers two Level 2 ports (about 6.7 kW each), which is enough to top off while you grab nearby services, but it’s not a fast-charge experience.

What to Know

  • It’s an EV charger first and foremost. There’s parking only for vehicles while they’re charging.
  • Don’t expect on-site amenities like restrooms, water, or a store at the charger itself. Plan those needs around Furnace Creek or The Inn at Death Valley nearby—those are separate from the charger.
  • This point isn’t listed as an official park facility on the NPS maps or site index, so treat it as a practical, unofficial stop rather than a destination.

Is It Worth a Stop?

If you’re driving an EV, absolutely—it can be a trip-saver. If you’re not, there’s nothing to see here beyond a couple of charging pedestals. Think of it as a utility node that keeps you exploring the rest of the park.

Best Time to Visit

Because it’s open 24/7, timing is flexible. Use it when you need a top-up; just budget extra time because Level 2 charging is slower than DC fast charging.
