Those that live in, or frequent Columbus
know the daily entertainment is provided
by the spectacular desert views,
wildlife and fauna, all seen through
natures magnificent
lighting
display. It begins with the peaceful
rise of the morning dawn, to the amazing
purples, blues and pinks of the twilight
hour, merging into breathtakingly
expansive sunsets. Finishing nightly with awe
striking moonscapes and the glory of the
stars that can be seen down to very
horizon of the desert floor itself.

As you
travel to Columbus, you will begin to
feel the cares and tares of the world peel
away along the drive. Whether you take
the thirty minute drive south from I-10
at Deming, NM or come through Texas and
cut across the open range of Highway 9
from El Paso in just over an hour. Either course will lead you directly to
the crossroads of |
|
highways 9 and 11. Otherwise known as
the Village of Columbus. |

Unless you're driving
down in your RV and
planning to join the
"snowbirds" migrating to
the warmer climate of
Columbus during the
winter months landing
in the
Pancho Villa State Park,
when you arrive you'll
want to check-in to
Martha's Place Bed &
Breakfast for the
most comfortable and
home felt accommodations
Columbus has to offer
for your stay with us.
Besides enjoying all the
amenities of your room
and the views from your
balcony,
Martha
and Javier's home is the
"watering hole" for many
of the village's resident
characters. You never
know who may be visiting
in the downstairs foyer
and living room.
But you will be treated
as a local and shown
what small town
hospitality is all
about.
While
moving at a slower pace, and living the
simple life is what you'll enjoy the
most during your visit, there are some
sights to see and enjoy. You can leisure
around the village and take the
historical walking tour to include our
two museums dedicated to the old
train depot and the old military
base known as Camp Furlong. (Housed in
the State Park). Or you can head just
3 miles south to the border and visit
the sleepy village of
Palomas Mexico.
Tourists love to
dine and shop at the Pink Store, while
many visitors come here to avail
themselves to low price, high quality
dental and optometrist practices. You
can also fill your prescriptions at a
fraction of the cost! If your so
inclined to enjoy a spirit filled
conversation or just some quiet time to
read, or talk to the man upstairs, head
down to the
Promised
Land Chapel.
Give
yourself a break, retreat-a-week
in the Village of Columbus. Who knows,
you may just want to stay. That's
exactly how most our newcomers find
themselves
living here.
