If you want to look around the area for a couple of days, stay in our RV park. You can use it as a base while touring the Deming and Silver City areas. Check out a ghost town or two; get a glimpse of how things were in the 1800's by touring The Deming Luna Mimbres Museum, in Deming; or hike and fish in the huge Gila National Forest.
The Butterfield Station Travel Center is on Interstate 10 (Exit 62) about 20 miles west of Deming, New Mexico. Butterfield carries self-serve Marathon gasoline and features 24hr. pay at the pump service. Looking for diesel fuel? We have that too! We offer a mind-boggling selection of merchandise, jewelry, t-shirts, and toys. You can't leave here and head into the southern New Mexico desert without one of the wonderful treats from the Dairy Queen.
We stopped here for an unplanned overnight. It is ok. Friendly staff. Clean but dated bathrooms. Took 5 minutes to get hot water in the women’s shower and the water stream was very small. No space between rigs. Lots of people driving out late and early. Think some folks must live here and be heading off to work. Big clubhouse area with a library. Also indoor pool. Didn’t use these facilities. There is a laundry but we did not check it out. Reasonable price but we wouldn’t choose to stay here again.
This is the second time we have spent a night here. The park is just a little out of town but upon a hill with amazing views. The campsites are mostly level and have water and electric and the showers and bathrooms were quite clean. Nice hiking in the area. Don’t forget to visit the gift shop where there’s some interesting information about the history of the area. All the camp hosts we’ve come in contact have been super friendly. you do have to make reservations online through reserve America. Very popular place in the fall and winter.
Clean, well kept. Great showers and clean bathrooms. Very welcoming host with a lot of information.
Nice level spot, but winds must blow year round in one direction, the trees are actually leaning. Nice check in clerk, but never provided a code to Showers. Locked by the time we tried the doors. Sitting outside at night the winds blew a constant Gasoline Vapor, even filled the RV. Great place for a one night stop, make sure you get the Shower Code!
Another really nice place in New Mexico. Near enough to the freeway, but far enough to not notice it. Near enough to town for a quick bite out or supplies, but far enough to not be bothered by it. Quiet and peaceful with good trails for walking the dogs.
Facilities: Hot water, free showers, flush toilets, soap, dump station, not much more you need
Cell Service: Good enough Verizon and T-mobile to work remotely
Starlink: While we didn't need to use it, all sites are open to the sky if you needed to
Solar: All sites are open to the sky for good solar
Rockhound SP, NM: If you like to hunt for rocks, or just be away from everything, this is a good place. Mountains are unique. Can’t get tired of looking at them. Only one trail here. Some nearby. (Scale 1- bad, 5-Very good

RSP is a nice state park. It’s quiet, the area is clean, and the hosts were great. If I were to do it again I would stay at a non electric site. They are closer to the mountains and more separated. For me the electric sites are too close with not enough screening between them.
Just an overnight after 5hr drive. Lots of different animals at ranch. Provided adapter for 50 to 30 amps. Would stay again!
The animals are cute and the owners are friendly. It’s a quiet place to pull off the highway and spend the night. The night skies are very dark, so it’s perfect for stargazing.
2-night minimum, at the end of a maintained gravel road. I have a camper van, no hookups, and paid $48 for two nights. Large rec room with full kitchen, satellite tv, pool table, and pop/candy/ice cream for sale. Laundry and hot showers. Very friendly and a majority of sites are long time full timers. Cash or check only, no credit cards. Good wi-fi. Propane available. About 10 miles to town and 30 miles to City of Rocks state park.
Nothing extravagant extra clean. Well taken of. Nicely helpful heated shower rooms. I looked at it Lots of restaurants nearby. There was lots of availability staff very nice
Camping trailer stay using 30A hookup. Hosts are very friendly. It is a working ranch… enjoyed the horses, donkeys, mules, goats, zebus and chickens! Peaceful dessert setting, highly recommended!!!
Did our laundry here, but hours are restricted.
Great view of the mountains depending on which side you’re on. Staff was very friendly and the spots were very well maintained
The traffic going down the highway to Puerto. Palermo is much more busy than I had expected. Watch out for the rattlesnakes. A friend of mine had just sent me a picture of the skin of a 20 footer on the wall in a shop not far from here. One local told me the rattlesnakes were quite populous this year. But I never expected to see one with the overnight temps in the 40s in the High barely reaching 70.
 Just kind of in the middle of the desert there’s several spaces most of them have full hook ups. There’s a few that don’t have a sewer. The area code has now changed from 5:05 to 575 it’s $12.
Cornice camp ground nestled in the hills. Large pull through sites, some with hookups some without. We dry camped
Clean, friendly, and flat. Planed an overnight stop but stayed 4 nights. Deming is in the center of many activities no matter your interests. Are you a rockhound or someone who wants a quick safe trip across the border or are you interested in visiting the chile capital of the world Hatch. Deming has you covered. Also a great museum

I have to change my review, we spoke with Wayne the day before either he is forgetful or doesn’t listen well. We are looking for tent camping and always state that upfront because many camping grounds don’t allow it. He told us yesterday that the office closes early 1:30 pm, but just pick a spot and pay the next morning. When ever I go to settle up at 1030. Am he had forgotten the conversation. We have to pack up n leave. So no tents.
Very clean, well organized, good WiFi
Pleasant staff, clean showers and laundry facilities.
The camp ground, is down the road from Banjercito Mexico, nice place to visit. Camp sites are reservation only, except for 3 FCFS sites. The bathrooms, showers and dump station are closed until further notice. Nice museum and staff. Not much to see in Columbus, museum, restaurant and gas.
Great park. Lots of amenities. Heated pool, dog off lease area. Close to food.(walking distance). Super easy to book and check in. 30 amp, 50 amp service. Level gravel spaces. Starlink works great here!
Nice lady checked us in and we were shown to our pull through camp site. Nice size for our 42’ 5th wheel plus parking our Dually. They have an enclosed pool, laundry room and nice dog park that has a double fence. Playground was large. No grass. It’s close to Walmart and a cute little downtown area.
Quiet and clean. Reservations needed for most of the sites but we pulled in for $10 got a open site. Playground, bathrooms, water, and electric available.
Folks in office were exceptional. Didn't try any amenities, but park was quiet and clean and very reasonably priced. No grass or tables at site, but long and wide. Didn't have to unhook
