Oasis State Park

Located north of Portales, Oasis State Park encompasses 193 acres of land featuring sand dunes, cottonwood trees, and a three-acre fishing pond at 4,100 feet elevation.

The New Mexico State Parks Division established Oasis State Park in 1961 to provide recreational opportunities for residents of the surrounding communities.

The Friends of Oasis organization coordinates fishing derbies and educational programs throughout the year, engaging local communities in outdoor activities and environmental education.

The park maintains RV camping sites with full hookups, tent areas, restrooms with showers, picnic spots, and a visitor center open daily from 7:30 AM to 4:00 PM.

The park's fishing pond receives seasonal stocking of rainbow trout during winter months and channel catfish during summer, while over 80 bird species inhabit the area.
