Important, Please Read Before Signing Up!

Please know that because the workshop is so close we no longer have rooms held at the Ranch, and unfortunately they just sold out. There are still some options though.

  1. There are few rooms left at the Inn which is across the street, but the rates are exceptional at $617/night.
  2. You can camp! There are first come first serve campgrounds across the street at either Texas
    Spring or the Sunset campground. Texas Spring only fills on the weekends and Sunset always has spots available.
  3. Stay at the Stovepipe Wells Hotel which is 30 minutes from Furnace Creek where the workshop is located. There is one room available for $226/night.
  4. Stay in Beatty, Nevada which is a 45-minute drive to Furnace Creek. The rooms here are under $100/day, but be sure you are an early riser so you can leave very early in the morning to make it in time for sunrise shoots!

If you have any questions feel free to reach out!

Best,
David
