Beatty dates back to 1904, when it was the railroad service center for the Bullfrog Mining District.

"This was a unique property. The hosts were very nice and the breakfast was good. The room and bath were in need of an update but, they were serviceable. The location was north of Beatty but, an easy drive to Beatty and Death Valley."
