Ridgecrest Hotels

Metropolitan amenities with small town affordability... dozens of natural and man made attractions... and the most consistent great weather in North America. Welcome to Ridgecrest, California, the perfect oasis for your next vacation!

 Located in the Mojave "High Desert" we are a mixture of old west and gold mining history combined with the contemporary high technology of the Navy's top rated research and development facility, China Lake. You've heard the phrase "it ain't rocket science?" Well we are the home of rocket science; along with fantastic weather. Our 350 days a year of sunshine provide the perfect climate for dozens of outdoor activities: hunting, fishing, boating, skiing (snow and water), back packing, mountain climbing, rock hounding, horseback riding, off road vehicle fun, land yachting... or just relaxing at one of our hotels, motels, or bed and breakfasts. Breathtaking sunrises and sunsets are a specialty.

 Ridgecrest is conveniently located two hours from Death Valley National Park, three hours from Los Angeles and four hours from Las Vegas and San Diego, just off major routes 395, 14 and 178. We are also easily accessible via United Express airlines with 3 daily flights to Inyokern Airport.
