Overnight Adventures

Stay at Indian Lodge

Indian Lodge, the park’s historic motel, is being renovated with updated plumbing systems (check back for opening dates). It was built in the 1930s in a southwestern architectural design style with adobe material excavated on-site. Originally a 16-room structure, the lodge is now a 39-room full-service hotel and restaurant that still reflects the highest level of CCC construction.

Sleep under the stars

For visitors with a preference for camping, Davis Mountains State Park offers 93 campsites (not including the hike-in primitive sites) with water, electric and full-hookup options. At the water-only area, Ranger Charlie recommends site 81 because a row of trees offers privacy on the left and there are no neighbors on the right. The site is only a 30-second walk to the restrooms, making it the perfect spot for families. In the electricity area, sites at the end of cul-de-sacs, such as 49, 45 and 29, offer optimal privacy. Site 29 has the best of both worlds with a back-exit path directly to the restrooms.
