Pancho Villa State Park

Pancho Villa State Park has several buildings remaining from the time Pancho Villa's 1916 raid, and are listed on the National register of Historic Places. These include the 1902 U.S. Customs House, two adobe structures dating from the Camp Furlong-era, and the 1916 Camp Furlong Recreation Hall. The old customs House is now used by park visitors as a meeting place and library. The new visitor center and museum has exhibits describing the histories of Pancho Villa, the Columbus raid of 1916, and the General Pershing Punitive Expedition.

The creation of the park was a gesture of good will between the United States and Mexico. The town of Columbus has been designated a National Historic Site. The park hosts the yearly Camp Furlong Days and partners with the Town of Columbus for many events.

Pancho Villa State Park offers a visitor center, camping, showers, group shelters, electric hookups, dump station, playground, trails, and R.V. pull through sites.
