"Nice lodge for a small historic town. Friendly folk, a tasty bar and a pool, though that was closed when we visited. Plenty of rv parking with power and water. I don't think there is a dump. A nice quiet place to spend the night in your RV."

"This was a very friendly lodge and we had a quiet stay except for one medical helicopter that took off nearby in the night."

"Elks lodge in Tucumcari is a sexist place they don't let women show swim suits at all inside even with cover up. But yet men in speedo shorts can walk around. They are clickish and mean not friendly with children. They make no accommodations and service is poor and snobby.They are very unorganized. Pool has frogs and bugs living in it. Elks lodge smells bad its to old and dirty. Bartenders are rude and over worked. There policies are only enforced for some when they want to bully or make people uncomfortable.If your a Elk skip this Lodge."
