We stayed at this incredible spot for an entire week! There’s a large area along the warm (hot spring fed) river with roughly 8 man made pools that get filled every Sunday, which allow plenty of shaded space to park next to them. The area is currently in currently under construction. Soon there will be bathrooms, picnic tables and BBQs, and from what we gathered possibly an entry fee (currently free)! Only on Sunday and Monday during the day did we experience decent crowds of people coming through. Otherwise it was mostly quiet during the day and completely quiet at night. We felt extremely safe here. The people in the very small village connected to it were very friendly. Only down fall was barely being able to connect to any phone service on Telcel, but 100metre walk away it was good. A very long and bumpy road in with a couple of river crossings closer to arrival, all easily doable in our 2WD Transit van.
Why? By checking in after you’ve visited a place you let others know this place is still functional. You can also add or correct any information.
man made pools are fenced now.no1 there weekdays .I was told are "private". warmish river is nice tho.DO NOT take the road up from Mesillas .turns into steep n lot of ruts 4x4
Report Check-Init is rain season so the drive was wet with the last few hundred meters in what looked like a creek!after the last river crossing got there.the area is now fenced .to my surprise there was nobody on a sunday afternoon and the pools were cold!probably seasonal?
