Back in 1977 when the movie, Star Wars, was filmed at The Oasis at Death Valley, it started inevitable tales of when the movie’s director came to this true American oasis. The Star Wars films have taken us on a journey beyond our imaginations since the beginning. And, past generations of employees have shared stories about the various movie locations. These include the breathtakingly and picturesque locations throughout Death Valley National Park, including, Mesquite Flat Sand Dunes, Artisan Pallet and Twenty Mule Team Canyon – all just a quick 20- to 40-minute drive from The Oasis at Death Valley resort.
While Death Valley its self does seem like another universe to vacationers, those in the know have also found an “oasis-like planet” that is the luxurious, AAA Four-Diamond Inn at Death Valley and the family-friendly Ranch at Death Valley. And, for Star Wars fans, the 4th of May is just around the corner, with means - a time of celebration, and for the entire month of May, those that want to pay homage to the real movie locations and sets can do just that at the historic Ranch at Death Valley with the exclusive May The 4th Be With You Package which includes:
