Traveling to New Mexico Soon?

Planning a summer trip to New Mexico? Why not stop by El Malpais National Monument located off of Interstate 40 east of Grants, NM. This beautiful national monument offers everything from easy drives, scenic overlooks, and short walks, to strenuous trails and rugged backcountry.

To get there, take exit 89 from I-40 east of Grants, onto NM Highway 117. The BLM's El Malpais Ranger Station is located 9 miles south of this exit and is open daily.  And while you're there, make sure to stop by our Bluewater Outpost store, located at Exit 72 off of I-40. Stop on in for a creamy ice cream treat and wonderful shopping! You will want to make sure to pick up some New Mexico souvenir items to share with friends and family!

Butterfield Station Travel Center & DQ

The Butterfield Station Travel Center is on Interstate 10 (Exit 62) about 20 miles west of Deming, New Mexico. Butterfield carries self-serve EXXON gasoline and features 24hr. pay at the pump service.  Looking for Diesel Fuel? We have that too!

Be sure to see the large display and variety of Victorian Dolls as well as the mind-boggling selection of merchandise, jewelry, T-Shirts, toys and mementos that we offer at all our Bowlin Stores. 

You can't leave here and head into the southern New Mexico desert without one of the wonderful treats from the Dairy Queen located at Butterfield Station. 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 the1800's by touring The Old Custom House, (designated as a National Historic Site) in Deming; or hike and fish in the huge Gila (pronounced hee la) National Forest.
