The Ranch’s 224 guest rooms were given fresh paint and new carpeting and Matheu said Xanterra plans to add more guest cabins to the property by 2020. Along with the new look come new options for entertainment at the Oasis, said Matheu. Xanterra is excited to offer weekly night sky viewing presentations on the golf course. They will continue to offer old favorites such as horseback and carriage rides from the Furnace Creek stables, “dive in” movies at the Ranch swimming pool, and simple pleasures such as corn hole and horseshoes. And of course, access to hiking and exploring the extraordinary desert. Matheu highly recommends visitors make reservations for a stay at the Oasis. Visitation has increased since the facilities reopened in 2018, with growing numbers of international tourists coming to catch a glimpse of the historic American West.
