From desert cabins to roadside motel rooms, the choices here reflect the pace of Highway 395 itself—simple, varied, and a little unconventional.
Rooms at Olancha RV Park and Motel are not cut from the same cloth. Some are straightforward motel setups with cable TV and air conditioning, while others lean into rustic charm with wood-paneled walls and kitchenettes. Beyond the walls of the motel, travelers can book cabins or spend the night in tipis, which come with basic furnishings and a dose of desert atmosphere. For those arriving with wheels, RV hookups and camping areas extend the options.
This mix makes the property flexible for different kinds of road trips—whether it’s a single overnight stop en route to Death Valley or a longer base for exploring the Owens Valley and Sierra Nevada.

What's "Olancha RV Park and Motel" Guest Score and Reviews clients says
The staff were both friendly and the cafe food was decent but pricy. The idea of staying in a Tipi was exciting. However, the noise from the highway was deafening, the small heater proved to be ineffective and the four of us froze.
Totally different experience to a normal hotel room. Tipi was great.
Friendly personal, spacious house
In the middle of nowhere, spacious rooms.

The location was very convenient since we were going to Death Valley the following day and the staff was very friendly. The room looked clean.
Staff were lovely, and flexible with check in.
I left a personal item and they were super helpful and considerate in mailing it back to me! Thank you :)
My room was in an older mobile home that was nicely outfitted and upgraded inside. It was quiet and the parking was great. The staff were friendly. There is a kitchen and a pool, but I all I needed was a cool place to sleep in Olancha. There is also a cafe but it was closed during the time I tried to visit it.
Quiet location
It was okay.
The tips are super! Special place. I would come again.
Great experience! Loved the Tipis. If you like rustic desert stays, this is for you! Just come prepared. The pool is great and refreshing after long hot days.
Softest bed you ever sleep in
Location, food, staff, tipis (tents) are fine.
