You can camp in Death Valley any time of year. In winter, camp below sea level near Furnace Creek. In summer, when it's too hot for sea level camping, opt for the higher elevations of the park, such as Wildrose Campground.
Bring at least 4 liters of drinking water per person per day. You can fill up at the visitor center, but it's best to be on the safe side and have your own water waiting in the car.
Even if just going on a day trip or one overnight, bring a cooler so you can keep your water cold and your chocolate from melting.
If you have a high clearance vehicle, camping at Eureka Dunes or the Racetrack is a great option for the shoulder seasons.
Turn off your artificial lights and walk out into the salt flats at night. Full moon, new moon, or full coverage clouds - you'll be amazed at how bright the salt flat can be.
