ScoutThis is a great, friendly campground, off the highway about a mile, so no highway noise. Very pet friendly. Long wide sites that have grass, patios and picnic tables. Open year round!
ScoutThis is primarily a dive shop/convenience store that has a campground and rooms for rent attached to the property. It is clean, quiet, and a pleasure to stay at. Most RV sites are 30-amp with water, but most do not have sewer connections. There is a dump station, but larger RVs may have a problem getting in through the pull through. I have an 18-ft travel trailer and didn't have any problems.
The water is good, but pressure is a little on the low side. There are free showers and toilets available, as well as a pool on site. The store is open weird hours but has a pretty good selection. If you are a scuba diver, they are a full service dive shop. Make sure you get a full tank of air though--the guy filling ours only gave us about 2600psi in ours.
LegendWhen I came here I had but one reason to check out this area, the abandoned once amazing Monte Ne. As a bit of a novice urban explorer I was intrigued by the history of this once giant which featured the first indoor swimming pool in the state, hosted a presidential function, boasted a gondola to ferry those visiting the facilities and was a part of a man’s manifesto of greatness. Then it fell to hard times and eventually to ruin much like so many other locations.
So what makes this area so intriguing? The ruin is now being slowly swallowed by Beaver Lake and the once grandiose walls are now somewhat of an embraced location for street art.
Rogers has several locations you can camp, but this is the closest to the site itself. I was excited to check it out and as I drifted further and further away from the Rogers city it started to look more and more remote. While there were some homes which scattered along the roadsides there wasn’t much in way of civilization.
Then I happened upon my location of the Monte Ne RV Park, a quaint and secluded space which embraces the peaceful location of Beaver Lake and makes for a perfect idealist setting for relaxing. While it isn’t the most updated campsite I had seen it by far was not the worst and the staff in the front more than made up for any short comings of some weary benches here and there.
The typical person staying here while traveling is enjoying hiking and fishing along with boating and other outdoor based activities. It was a perfect location for access to the lake and though there were several people there, it didn’t seem crowded because the spaces are nice sized. There are more than a few long term campers here as well and much like any campsite which allows long term camping you can tell the difference in the residence spaces as they have skirtings on their RVs and plants outdoors.
I was able to find a tent site and settled in and was very pleased that it was very quiet. I met a couple that was also traveling and had been there a couple nights and they had said they had been out exploring a bit in the area and were quite pleased, even made a couple suggestions for me for my time at the location.
My site was typical in that it had a picnic table and fire ring. It did include electricity, which typically I am not concerned with but it was nice to have so I could charge my devices and edit some video.
Closer to nightfall I noticed several people were outdoors using their grills and moving around because the temperatures were a bit better. It was nice to see the community I was around and again the staff came around to check on everyone which was a very nice touch.
The positives of this campground:
TENT, RV and CABIN options
Shady sites - on hot days this can make all the difference
Friendly Staff
Free WIFI
AT&T Good Signal
The negatives of this campground:
Slightly outdated, needs some paint and some upgrades on some tables and benches
Trash - unfortunately when I drove in I noticed trash as one of the first things I saw, this looked like it had been tossed by people coming in and out instead of using trashcans
Bumpy Road
Well worth the stop to get to be so close to checking out Monte Ne. If I was to return to Beaver Lake this would for sure be on my list again!!

LegendCedar Oaks is a very easy campground (CG) to find and get into. We did not have a designated site number but had requested back-in site 90 on the lake or a pull through from 64 to 73. We got our first choice and after an easy check-in we were escorted to site 90 and were assisted backing in. This site had a large lawn area due to site 91 being decommissioned because of flooding a while back. We enjoyed a very nice lake view as this site is probably the best site in the park. The site next to us, 89, was very near on our utilities side, but 89 still had some lake view. There is no cable TV here but we got a good variety of OTA channels. We got 3 bars on Verizon and the park WiFi was average for a park this size. There are permanent and seasonal residents here plus dedicated transit/short term areas. Most sites in this CG have a shot to the southern sky if you want to use satellite. There are two small fenced dog areas but plenty of room to walk your dogs. There is also a bathhouse and boat launch plus slips. This was our second stay here and we would stay here again in the future.
TravelerThis is one of the best state parks I’ve been to. Amazingly clean and well maintained. Bathrooms were spotless with awesome water pressure and NO smell. No hand soap in bathroom so bring it with or some wet wipes. Swimming area, beach, volleyball, park, boat ramp. Every site is paved and beautiful. Every site has an amazing view of Table Rock Lake and MOST sites are literally on the water. We walked (10 steps) down to the water every day and swam right behind our site. All sites have water and electric but no full hookups. If you have a small boat, jet skies, or kayaks, you can pull them right up to the shore of your site. Mixture of back in and pull through sites and some are double sites for really big rigs or if you’re camping with friends. We stayed on site 16 and it was perfect but there are so many great sites that it’s hard to find a bad one. We stayed for 5 nights at $21 per night. The sites book up fast so reserve well ahead of time. 10 minutes to grocery store and gas. 20 minutes to Walmart. No camp store so if you need ice or firewood, get it in town. Tons to do within a 30 minute drive if you don’t want to spend every day on the water. Only negative is the missing hand soap, they need more garbage cans around the campground and we had some flies so had to break out the pinesol!! P.S. every time the staff member came by on his golf cart, he stopped to give our dogs treats...score!!
