What Are the Best Things to See and Do in Deming?
Deming is known for two things: rocks and a museum. The state park southeast of town is the one place in New Mexico where you may legally collect specimens, within posted areas and using hand tools. Downtown, a large free museum fills a 1916 armory with Mimbres pottery and local history. Two wineries pour nearby, and the duck races run each August. Museum and tasting room hours vary, so check before you set out.
Which RV Rental Fits a Deming Trip?
Class A coaches, Class C motorhomes, Class B camper vans, small travel trailers and large bunkhouse trailers are all on offer, and extended hires are on the books. Openings shift as bookings arrive. Collection is at Elephant Butte, and the usual run down is Interstate 25 to Hatch then New Mexico 26 southwest, so budget a couple of hours on your first day. Once here the town resorts report all drive-through bays with every service, which favours a longer vehicle, while the state park keeps 23 powered pitches and an emptying point rather than a drain at the pad. If you plan to collect rocks, remember the weight mounts up, so consider payload as well as length.

What Our Renters Say
"Great setup. We spent the days on the lake and evenings soaking in the hot springs down in T or C. The rental team made pickup super easy."
"Watched the fireworks right from our campsite. The kids loved the bunkhouse. Way better than driving back to the city after the show."
"We came down for the winter sun. The rv was spotless and felt like a real home. The staff gave us great tips on where to park for the best sunsets."
"Parked right on the sand at Lions Beach. Nothing beats waking up to that view of the water. The RV had plenty of storage for our fishing gear. Solid experience."
