Elephant Butte Inn

The place isn't bad but dated. Check in room longer than it should as well as check out. However, everything worked and the place was clean! Stayed for two nights and zero issues. I'd go back as there were no specific items to really complain about.

We came out for a celebration of life and booked the inn for the weekend. If we had only known.... Terrible, filthy and run down! Bugs everywhere and dare you look under the bed. We will drive out to T or C for a stay next time.

Came day after Valentine's. Great service, ate in the bar area. The salad was great, good textures and flavors would've been better as a spinach salad not iceberg lettuce. Got the tusk salad without the red onion. Then the bananas foster cheesecake, super rich buttery flavor could hardly take the picture because I couldn't keep from eating it. Highly recommend dessert!

Hair and blood stain in the sink, crown royal nip bottle in bathroom drawer, bugs on the floor, a layer of dust on furniture. Not Impressed!

Really nice place to stay off of the beaten path. Though the area in general outside of Truth or Consequences is remote in general. The rooms are modestly priced -clean and comfortable. The King bed was newer with plenty of pillows. The room had a newer flat screen Visio TV and plenty of channels. View of the lake and distant hills is very pleasant -and the quietness in the late evenings and early morning is really amazing. Front desk staff were friendly and check-in was quick. The restaurant and bar were really great. Wait staff are friendly and made great drink and food recommendations. Over the several days I was there I had the opportunity to try several of the meal offerings -many of them made with Hatch green chilis (local from Hatch NM -which is pretty close) and they were excellent. The chili rellenos are the best I've ever had; If you're into Margaritas I recommend the "Ivory" margarita which they make with Patron Tequila.

This is a nicely updated lodging with nice thick towels, linens and a good bed. The AC was loud, however. Restaurant hours didn't work and we were part of good sized British Car club get together (57+/-cars meaning 100+people)......not smart to loose that dinner business. They did have a cocktail hour with typical fare, with the exception of the white bread...like Wonder Bread type of sandwiches..who eats that kind of stuff? That was gross and not a good filler....other than that a nice place to stay.

Ate here last fall not impressed. Tried it again couple weeks ago totally impressed. I tried the low carb chicken Alfredo with veggies! Awesone, husband tried unless burger. Really good food.

Amazing value for such a view, beautiful room and excellent customer service! Would recommend elephant butte inn to any friend! Also brought my furry best friend and wasn't a problem at all. Pay the extra $10 and get the lake view room. It's the best.

Here at the Elephant butte hotel and have to tell everybody that if you come to the lake this is the place to go --- best food and best rooms in the area-- and better come fast as the lake is Way UP RIGHT NOW--

This place used to be a nice little place to stay. we've come many times. it's been a few years so we decided to visit elephant butte. We got us a room expecting what we always get. We took the kids to swim at the lake. Get back to the room after dinner. To find mascara on my pillow cases. Hair all in the bed. Hair all over the bathroom. Dirty nasty towels. I call front desk. No one answers. Walk down there locked. No one answers my knock. We ended up getting a different room at 10pm with my seven month old baby and teen son in tow in t or c and still had to pay for this trashy room we didn't stay in cause the new owner said it's my fault I didn't inspect the room right away. So disgusting and we are so mad . Waste of money. And unnecessary stress. Poor management. Also the restaurant is closed to now. no pool. no breakfast as the website falsely advertise. Parking lot was empty. Thought it was closed upon initially pulling in, we should've taken that as a warning. Don't go there. Heed my warning. It's not what it once was.
