Dukatt ’71

Reviewed By 36RichardH - Frisco, United States

Crazy place with something for everyone. The owner is “one of a kind” and he alone is worth the stop if you’re near Truth or Consequences, NM.

Reviewed By 293denises

This museum has a large variety of collections that would appeal to every family member. There are a couple of interesting outdoor installations. Gift shop is nice and there are local crafts, such as weaving, on sale throughout the museum.

Chloride

Reviewed By theOddBee - Philadelphia, United States

This isn't like Tombstone. There are no novelty photo booths or actors roaming the streets. (There's also no food. Stop in Winston to get snacks and drinks, and to use the bathroom!) This is an ACTUAL ghost town. If that's your jam, you're going to love this. I had a great time learning about the history of the town from the people who helped give it new life it as an attraction. Talk to Don & Donna and they'll tell you everything you want to know and more. Make sure you buy Don's book in the gift shop! It is a really interesting read: action, adventure, death by skunk. While you're there, please be polite and don't take photos of peoples' houses. People actually do live here so if there are signs of life, no photos. Talk to Don & Donna first if you aren't sure.

NM does Veteran Parks really well. This was a great history lesson, followed by a great hike to the Rio Grande. Bring a picnic - two covered tables.

Caballo Lake State Park

Reviewed By 43323Rick

I wake up to a beautiful mountain view every morning! I just returned from the showers and there was plenty of hot water and the restrooms are very clean. I am in the Palomino campground with full hookups for only $18/night! New Mexico state parks are the best value in the country! I highly recommend this state park!
