My brothers and I threw a surprise party at the Longhorn Party Pad in honor of my mom's 70th…read morebirthday on April 20, 2024. It's located on the north side of Hobbs, NM. I was concerned about the possible lack of parking, but there ended up being plenty. I reserved this fairly large facility from 3PM to midnight for a charge of $960 due upon arrival. A $100 deposit was required for a cleanup fee. If your group cleans up, the deposit is returned. Overall, my group of about 50 guests had a great time and was impressed, however, it was not without a few pitfalls. There are several ways to bring this place from good to great & I'm rooting for them because I want this husband/wife duo to do well: - the lone bathroom! The toilet is raised with a steep step which was not user-friendly even for my athletic 5'6" body much less for my handicapped aunt. She went home early due to this. - several tables & chairs were not in good working condition - weird wood piece on the wall that prevented the fridge from shutting nicely - the arcade games devoured everyone's quarters! Lol. - as an owner, I would supply a list of policies and infractions for renters along with consequences. Everything told to me was verbal. I don't have THAT much faith in humanity even with cameras on the premises and the owners living next door. A contract would keep both sides honest. - last, but certainly not least, it was difficult to understand just exactly what was included in the reservation price due to the owner opting to text instead of call. I'm a so-called millennial, but I hate text messaging. So I relied heavily on my Facebook photo investigative skills to determine certain information. PROS + bluetooth speaker + toilet paper & paper towels + alcohol allowed + separate party rooms + fridge/freezer + microwave + TVs + arcade game room + playground set + basketball hoop + sand volleyball court + foldout tables & chairs + outdoor lighting + 2 bounce houses (weather permitting for one of them) + ample parking + several trash cans & extra liners I'd do a few things differently, but my mom had a special time and that's what mattered.

Horsefeathers is a boutique on the east side of Hobbs, NM…read more It's been around forever and I'm glad to see it doing so well. When I was a teenager I remember not really appreciating all the "old lady" accessories and other items. Lol. This place now seems larger, easier to manuever in, and with many more options for gifts for loved ones than ever before. There was everything from some women's clothing, jewelry, slippers, sunglasses, and bags to kitchenware, some gourmet food items, bath bombs, other body care items, cards for every occassion, and books. Many wedding registries are created here because they also have quite an array of home decor. Not to mention several Christian faith-based items like crosses, jewelry, books, and other decor. There is a small men's section and also a baby section. I learned of a new tool for little ones while I was here back on August 5, 2023 - it's called toniebox. From the tonies website, this device is best described as "imagination-building, screen-free digital listening experience that plays stories, songs, and more." It seems like an excellent way for parents who don't want to give their children a tablet or other device to engage in listening and other important life skills. Horsefeathers was selling the starter boxes and Tonies characters for 50% off. There are many affordable gifts here plus... they offer free gift wrapping! The staff members are friendly and willing to help you - just ask if they're busy. The worst thing is their parking. There is very limited parking, but it is typically only crowded during major holidays.

The staff was very unfriendly and had extremely poor customer service skills. I shared where I stayed with some locals and they said that they had that reputation and suggested other places to stay the next visit.

The Lea County Event Center is often referred to the locals as "the coliseum."…read more While it is the largest indoor stadium of sorts in the entire county, its size pales in comparison to big city venues. My first recollection of this facility was when I was still in grade school. My mom took me and my best friend at the time to a country concert starring Tracy Lawrence with then up-and-comer Toby Keith. Because this is not an extravagantly huge venue, there really isn't a bad seat in the house. We didn't sit particularly close to the "Time Marches On" crooner, but could see his facial expressions just fine. I've been here for many more events since: professional bullriding, motocross, monster trucks, arts & crafts fairs, the local community college and area high school graduations, etc. Working with the county on many projects in this building for several years was also a good experience. The County has decided to seek ideas for upgrades with the LCEC. I hope that the parking doesn't get chaotic. Please ensure there is ample parking... even maybe a parking garage in the future? Can't wait to see the changes!

I'm a travel nurse at times and my husband is always searching for a decent place for us to stay…read more He hit the bullseye here. First time stay, we got an upgrade. The cabins are well furnished with a rustic atmosphere. The furniture is solid, not your average cheap "get it in there" junk. The staff is friendly, the cabins are always clean (except one accident, which was immediately resolved with extremely courteous service!) There's coffee and snacks with complimentary soaps and shampoos in each cabin. It's a little noisy from the highway but that's hardly noticable, given how comfortable the beds and loveseats are. This is our third stay with several more to go. Definitely recommend staying here if you have any overnight business in the area!!!

I really…read moreappreciate the covered parking area, which helps shade our RV during the heat of the day, and also gives us peace of mind during bad weather, in case of hail. There is plenty of room for us to park our 36 ft 5th wheel as well as our full-length dually tow vehicle underneath the covered parking inside our allotted area. We have full hookups which are easily accessible. There is a nice laundromat on site with coin-operated washers and dryers, a coin machine which dispenses quarters in exchange for $1, $5, $10, and $20 bills. There is also a machine which dispenses laundry supplies. There are indoor restrooms in the laundromat, a long table for folding laundry, and a few chairs. On the front porch of the laundromat there are benches, and a snack/drink machine which can be operated with coins, dollar bills, credit cards, and Apple Pay. The RV site is easily accessible just off the main road. Traffic noise is noticeable, but we sleep with our A/C or fan running, which helps mitigate the noise level. Very handy RV park for overnight or longer stays. Check-in and check-out is done over the phone with a credit card. We plan to continue using this RV park during our trips through the area.
