Sand!! Sand! Everywhere! This place is where you go if you…read morelike sand, but don't want to go to the beach! It's like being down on the Texas shore, but you're still hours away from the nearest beach. Just driving in here, you know that this place is special. The dunes stretch up to seventy feet above you. Stop by the park HQ and grab one of those sleds, and they'll sell you some wax to surf down the dunes. Don't expect a speed rush, but it's fun! The park is so picturesque, with pristine dunes, a few pieces of scrub growing, a windmill in the background, or even a oil well! The staff was super friendly, and accommodating. The front area of the park was closed when I went, due to construction, but the entire back area of the park was open for wandering all you want through the dunes. It's tough climbing them, but taking a running jump off the side is super fun! The camping was nice. I got no cell reception out in the dunes, but near the bathrooms and ranger station, I got tuned in with wifi and a cell signal. The camping spots all seem to have some dunes between them, so you get a sense of some privacy. Thirty amp and water hookups exist. A picnic table under a shelter was provided as well. When I left this park, I was completely covered in sand. Everywhere.

YOU NEED TO GO HERE! Whether you make your whole road trip about coming to this awesome state park,…read moreor just make it part of another trip like we did, you have to come to Monahans Sandhills and rent a sand disc from the visitor center (or bring your own) to sled down the sand dunes with your friends or family. This was my daughter's #1 memory from our whole trip and we spent 3 days in Big Bend - but apparently sledding down the sand dunes beat out all the cool hikes and stuff we saw (she's still talking about it). Honestly, this was so affordable and could be hours and hours of fun, along with the beautiful desert views that you could enjoy on hikes. Probably not as fun in 100+ degree temps, but being there around the New Year was amazing. 10/10 place to stop and have a ton of fun!

Del Norte Dog Park - Thank goodness for this "grocery bag" station when the other dispensers are empty & I already used the only bag I brought. Lol. (2/13/2023)

Del Norte Dog Park. I think this is the only official "dog park" in Hobbs, NM…read more Nope, this is not cutting it for a dog park, though. Broken glass in the streets. Beer cans always in the parking lot near here. Trash everywhere. Dog owners not picking up after their canines. Sticker patches in the large dog area - huge ones that I noticed they tried to weed whack down, but the damn things are still all over the ground. I walk a 75-pound pitbull here often early mornings and constantly see other dogs not on leashes. They run immediately towards us. It's always small dogs. Makes me nervous because I never want to see this sweet girl get provoked. When you face the entrance, the small dog area is over to the left. A communal area is in the middle. Large dog area is to the right. All of them have separate fencing and gates. Don't come here in the evenings when all the youngsters are revving up their engines and trying to be cool nearby. It's a late night hangout for them. PROS + the gates are set up nicely + dog waste stations + obstacle courses + free, ample parking within walking distance + one water station in the communal area

We took our two boys and they really enjoyed it. They have water fountains available for dogs and…read morepeople, a covered seating area, and three different play areas for different sized dogs. The areas are mostly like obstacle courses but they is also plenty of room for your children to run around and have fun!

Prior to heading to Andrews for her vet appointment, I saw "Andrews Dog Park" on Google maps. (I scour the map every once in a while to see if any new places pop up. Lol.) I parked the truck on the side street. Free parking is available. Right away I noticed all the trees and a nice chain-linked fence. As soon as I unleashed her inside the large dog area, she was sniffing her way around a red dirt and turf-filled area. She had such energy in this place! (Albeit, she was the lone pup that morning of May 9, 2023.) A separate area for small pooches, special needs doggies, and senior pups was also availble - with more level ground. There were small hilly areas, a red fire hydrant, some concrete pads, and multiple dog waste bag stations. I'm super jealous of this little park. Good call on the design of this little park, City of Andrews! Please help it stay clean and nice by picking up after your beloved canine before you leave. There were multiple trash cans. Large truck and trailers should have no problem navigating through here - 'cause I know truck drivers and campers need these tips too! Post a picture of your dog on here for me. Love, Jenni & her canine niece, Hennessy

Only God loves you more than a dog! #ReflectDogs Love &…read moreForgiveness This is actually quite a nice dog park depending on what you're looking for. It has a very nice double-gated concrete entry area as well as a nice concrete pad with a shade structure and a picnic table in both the big and small dog park. Although the first portion of the dog park is my favorite astro turf!! It is done quite nicely and certainly keeps the gate area from getting muddy. But it is very important that you pick up after your dog because it shows up real quick on the astro turf. Half the dog park is just natural ground covering with a few little hills for your dog to run up and down as well as a few trees for them to run around. There are multiple poop bag dispensers hidden around the park as well as a very nice water feature. Parking is right in front of the dog park. Searching for true love and forgiveness? Talk to GOD and get a DOG! #ReflectDogs Love & Forgiveness
