LOCATION / DIRECTIONS: Faywood Hot Springs is located in southwestern New Mexico, on Highway 61, halfway between Silver City and Deming, next to the City of Rocks State Park, about 2 miles from the intersection of Highways 180 and 61.

GENERAL DESCRIPTION: Faywood Hot Springs is a year-round natural hot spring resort on a private 1200-acre ranch. It is a true high desert oasis situated in a park like setting at 5,000 ft. The 137'F pure spring water issues from the top of a mound (or tufa dome) and is gravity fed to various public and private pools and tubs.

ACTIVITIES: Bathing, massage, RV and tent camping, cabins, wonderful scenery, hiking, horseback riding, bird watching, star-gazing, general relaxation and solitude. Faywood Hot Springs is a good base to explore southwestern New Mexico. We are close to the Gila Cliff Dwellings National Monument, the Gila Wilderness, Silver City, Deming, numerous ancient petroglyph sites and the northern Mexican state of Chihuahua. There are also numerous other hot springs in the area that can be reached by hiking.

The Faywood Hot Springs Area represents a unique ecosystem. A sea of green grows around the tufa dome during the Spring, Summer and early Fall. The presence of water in an otherwise dry area, has created a community of plant, animal, bird, reptilian, and amphibian life of much greater diversity than is normally found within this habitat zone. Over 150 species of birds are believed to inhabit the site at various seasons of the year. our grounds are kept in the most natural state possible. Be aware that we all share this place with a great diversity of life. A flashlight, binoculars, a towel and a bathrobe are always good items to bring.
