We stay here once a year and I'm still trying to find a room with a firm mattress. The rooms are rustic, but the showers are fantastic with strong water pressure! You do need to be on the self-sufficient side and bring your own shampoo and hair dryer. I also bring a small travel hot water pot to make coffee... More

I love the Whitewater, and Glenwood in general. It is a quaint motel on the edge of town that is quiet and clean. The owners are super hospitable and will go the extra mile for you. The showers are cozy but the showerheads/pressure is amazing. Dish TV and free wifi. Beds are soft and clean, extra pillows and blankets are... More

Our family stayed at the Whitewater Motel on a recent trip. We found it to be very clean, quiet and an all around rustic atmosphere. Glenwood, NM is a charming little town that is a fantastic place to get away from it all. From walking around and getting lost in the woodsy settings to hiking the Catwalk up the road... More

I spent two nights here during a two week backpacking trip through the Gila Wilderness; one in the middle (as my resupply point) and then at the end. (Of course, at that point, any room with running water, a bed, A/C, and a shower would have been great!!) I loved the inn because of its price, simplicity, and owner. The... More

My wife, two daughters (12 and 14) and I stayed one night here. The lady who checked us in (owner) was nice and helpful. It was like stepping back in time, as she filled out a paper slip with our info on it. She was very nervous due to the pending rain/monsoon season and flooding and mudslides that would occur... More

Recently, my wife & I spent (yet another) night at the Whitewater Motel. Not many other motels to choose from in Glenwood, NM, so we didn't go elsewhere. We have had good times at the Whitewater, in the past, but this time was different. For one, the "river" behind the motel was being excavated, by the highway department, while we... More

Basic motel but comfortable and clean. Room very cold on arrival but soon warmed up by gas heater. This was noisy at night. Took severala minutes for the hot water to come though to the brass shower which looked antiquated but in fact gave an adequate douse. No breakfast. Discount for cash.

The Whitewater is just past the Post Office in Glenwood, NM. The first time we went to Glenwood, we stayed at a Super 8 in Silver City that was horrible. While eating breakfast at Golden Girls Cafe, they mentioned the Whitewater just down the road. On our next visit, that is where we stayed and have for 6 consecutive years... More

Arrive during the day because you won't be able to find this place at night. It's dark and a little scary. If you can get someone to come to the lobby, you're luckier than I was. When I finally found someone, she was as nice as could be! I took the last room available, but didn't get much sleep because... More

Nice stay, very helpful staff. Room was clean, beds comfortable, Dish network in room, nice backyard with a couple of deer who showed up and wowed the kids. Advise making reservations as it was full all week. Nearby restaurants and good food in Blue Front tavern with a separate eating area. No coin op laundry in town.
