Join the Four Corners Unit Airstream Club for a fun-filled Airstream Rally at Caballo Lake State Park in southern New Mexico, October 23–26, 2025!

This joint Airstream Club rally with the Arizona and New Mexico clubs features social hours, charity sewing, hot springs, a Halloween party, and more.

Explore local gems like Truth or Consequences and Sparky’s while camping riverside.

Don’t miss this unforgettable Airstream adventure with your fellow club members –costumes, decorated trailers, and good times guaranteed! Read on for all the details!

Caballo Lake State Park is considered one of the top 10 state parks in New Mexico. Located 16 miles south of Truth or Consequences, it is accessible via old Highway 187 or from 1-25 Exit 59. Our rally is within a short walking distance from the Rio Grande River. Recreations include fishing, biking, hiking, and if permissible, kayaking (check with park). Twenty miles south of the park is the town of Hatch which is widely known as the “best chili place in the world for growing a wide variety of chili peppers”.  Sparky’s restaurant, located in Hatch, is renowned for their green chili cheese burgers and, shall we say unique?, decor!.Make plans for lunch on one of the days. Also highly recommended for their incredible tamales is B&E Burrito.

On Friday night, with sufficient interest, we will have dinner at Arrey’s café. With an incredible $18.99 ribeye special the restaurant has asked for advanced notice of ribeye numbers so you’ll be asked to indicate how many (if any) you want on the rally registration. Arrey’s also has an excellent Mexican food menu. With room to accommodate only 25 people for the 5pm seating, please indicate which seating you want, 5 pm or 6:30 pm. Please note that the restaurant only accepts cash, no credit card.

This year, the Four Corners Unit is welcoming the Arizona and New Mexico units as co-hosts. We will have a Halloween party on Saturday night with a catered dinner and dancing so remember to bring your favourite costume and decorations for your Airstream. Dress up your pets, too! Awards will be given for best decorated trailer and people and pet costumes. (Bragging rights for coordinating with your pet’s costume!)

Note: there is only one water spigot per wagon wheel of 8 trailers so come with a loaded tank
