Our residency is located in beautiful Lakeview Casitas on the southern edge of Elephant Butte Lake. The buildings were constructed by the Civilian Conservation Corps in 1940. They are equipped with all bedding and linens, large kitchenettes with cooktops, Microwaves, Refrigerators and Coffee Makers.

Residence fees are: 1 month = 650.00 3 weeks = 500.00 2 weeks = 325.00 plus tax and 5.00 Historic Restoration Fee

The residency is located in a rural area of southern New Mexico. Our weather is generally mild and sunny in Autumn with highs in the 80s and lows in the 50s. The area is beautiful and serene with many trails and paths to explore. Residents may bring a partner or spouse with them and some of our units are pet friendly.

New Mexico’s favorite lake is loaded with adventure. Boat rentals are available at the marina for skiing, fishing, wakeboarding or just puttering around. Kayaking is also very popular and the marina has a good selection of rental kayaks. Current Covid Health Restrictions may prevent access to the entire lake.
