| Desert Haven RV Park |
 |  |  |  |  |  |  |  |
Small RV park with large spaces in a country setting. Fantastic view of the
Caballo Mountains and the Rio Grande corridor. Shaded picnic area, full
hook-ups with well water, 30 amp and 50 amp service. Most sites are
pull-through. Well behaved pets are welcome.
WE WANT YOU! to spend a night, a week, a month or to stay long-term at
our small but comfortable DESERT HAVEN ADULT RV CAMPGROUND
adjacent to the no-kill Animal Refuge. Income generated from RV site
rentals is earmarked to cover the operating expenses of DESERT HAVEN
ANIMAL REFUGE.
WE OFFER a large, full hook-up RV site for $12 per night, utilities
included; $50 per week, plus utilities; or $150 per month, plus utilities.
The RV campground is located between two large lakes only minutes away -
Elephant Butte Lake to the North, and Caballo Lake to the South. The
entire area is known not only for its Old West hospitality, its hot mineral
springs and surrounding ghost towns, but it is also a paradise for hikers,
rock-hounds and bird watchers. To reserve a camp site, contact Operations
Manager and Camp Host Freddie Loveless at 575-894-2778 or send an
email to: Eliana Aubin. For more information about Desert Haven Adult RV
campground, you can also call Lois at 575-894-3447.
Desert Haven Animal Refuge is located in south-central New Mexico, near
Truth or Consequences, between Albuquerque to the north and Las Cruces to
the south. From I-25, take exit 75, then take a sharp right onto HWY
187. Desert Haven is located 2 miles south of the exit, at mile marker 34.
All profits go towards the operating expenses of Desert Haven property.
The Work Camper Program
Our work campers are RVers who commit to spend several months or more
at Desert Haven Animal Refuge, to share in the daily care of our animal
residents, while at the same time helping finish the construction of the
facility. They also help with routine maintenance tasks as needed. As part
of their duties, the work campers also work together with the volunteer
crew at Paws & Claws thrift shop. Their time (an average of 20 hours per
single per week and 25 hours per couple per week in a congenial work
environment) their talent and a wealth of new ideas are exchanged for a
spacious RV site and utilities.
At Desert Haven, service oriented work camping singles and couples are
welcome year-round, to help care for the domestic animals who live there
until adoption or to the end of their natural life. While there is always a
need for routine maintenance at the no-kill facility, large building projects
are usually left for the Fall, Winter and Spring, when the crew is the
largest. Winter visitors in the surrounding communities team up with the
volunteers and work camping crew every Tuesday at the Refuge, to help
with projects as well as with the domestic animals who reside there.
The area, overlooking the nearby Rio Grande corridor with the Caballo
Mountains in the background, is beautiful year-round. The park is small,
well tended and peaceful and the people are wonderful. Read about the
experiences of some of our former work campers:
- Lucille & Larry Tillotson
- Camille & Ed Pronovost
- Liane & Doug Clark
- Virginia Nylen
Please consider us in your extended stay plans. You will be glad you did!

Call work camper coordinator Lois DiAndrea at 575-894-3447 or send an
e-mail to Eliana Aubin for more information.
Work Campers, long-term and seasonal volunteers are a vital part of the
on-going success of Desert Haven Animal Refuge. We need the help and
support of each and every animal loving individual who wants to work
together with us to make a difference in the life of domestic animals in
need.
Together, we have the unique opportunity to witness, first hand, the
changes that we make in the lives of the animals that we rescue and that
we save from neglect, abuse, and often from a lonely and miserable death.
Together, we are an integral part of a network of caring and kindness
whose value extends far beyond the simple care of the animals at Desert
Haven Animal Refuge.
