  C and J Sports - Under new management, now Beaver Dam Dive Shop and Resort

  Nice spot a little away from the lake

  This 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.

  Monte Ne RV Park

  Friendly Staff Will Make You Wanna Come Back

  When 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!!

  Southgate RV Park of Fayetteville

  Ok park, Close to Fayetteville

  This is one of those RV parks that you have a love-hate relationship with. You love the location– super close to a town you want to be in and its attractions(in this case it was downtown Fayetteville) but, you drive in, take a look around and let out an“ugh!” There is nothing appealing about this park– gravel roads and sites, no picnic tables, no fire pits, old bathrooms/laundry, and not much else. 

  The park has some 80 sites set in a horseshoe-shape with a mix of permanent people and transients. We were in a pull-thru that faced a big field separating the park from a neighborhood development and a Tyson chicken plant mysteriously labeled“Mexican Original.” There was a masa-type smell in the air and knowing it was a chicken processing facility we had the feeling that chickens were being converted into something called“Mexican” based on the Tyson sign along the road. The smell was a pretty big turn off. 

  Roads and sites are gravel. Some sites had a paved pad but most are gravel. All sites have 50/30 amp, water, and sewer. There are back-ins and pull-thrus. At one time there was cable but it was not working when we were there and we were not able to get any antenna channels(although our friends picked up 20 or so). While there are no picnic tables at the sites, there are two areas in a big field that have picnic furniture and available for anyone to use. Sites are fairly close together with just a few trees scattered about for shade. The water and electric worked fine. This park is big rig-friendly and we had no problem maneuvering our RV with the car attached through the park. 

  We called about making a reservation and the owner said to call him prior to our arrival and he would give us a site number. When we arrived he drove by and instructed us to put our money(cash or check only) in an envelope and drop it in an outside deposit box. Can’t say there are any amenities except the two picnic areas and an old, tired bathroom/shower house. We were only in there one time and that was during a tornado watch. It was old, needed painting and in need of cleaning. There is one washer and dryer that are housed in the bathroom. 

  The park is a short drive from I-49 with an easy in and out on good roads. After exiting the interstate you will notice the correctional center, bail bonds, homeless shelter, pawn shop, and huge Tyson processing plant. However, you are just five miles or so from downtown Fayetteville where you have everything at your fingertips. Within just a short drive you are downtown where restaurants, shops, entertainment and more were very close. Fayetteville is home to the University of Arkansas and has that cool college town vibe with good restaurants, lots of microbrews, funky shops, and lots of energy.

  Redding Campground

  Luxuries in the Ozark NF

  Stayed here for two nights over New Year's Eve. Campground had only 3 spaces occupied the first night, and we had it all to ourselves the actual night of NYE. To be fair, it was raining and cold weather was projected to move in.  However, several campsites did not appear to have been occupied at all since fall, judging by leaf cover, so in spite of the flush toilets/showers, this may not be an overly popular campground.  We have a small teardrop, and our fellow campers were using a tent and car camping; Site 16 appears to be the only site here suitable for 5th wheels, and its appeared to be a tight squeeze to back in. No hookups at any site.

  None of the sites have views of the Mulberry River, but there is a lovely put-in spot for canoes/kayaks that right on the loop with the rest of the sites.  All sites can also easily access the comfort station - which is located across from the day-use parking area.  We saw two water spigots - 1 across from the day-use, and one at site 16 - available for fresh drinking water.  We brought water in with us, so didn't taste test.

  All sites have tent pads, fire pits and picnic tables, although several of the picnic tables are not in the best shape. Best draining sites appear to be in the 20s, on the north side of the loop, with 15, 19 and 23 appearing to have good vehicle access and good drainage.

  We stayed at site 13, which appears to be reasonably popular, as there was little trash, and less leaves.  Its a short walk and mild bushwhack through a ravine to reach a small cliff overlooking the river, and you can hear the rapids from the tent pad - very soothing! However, after 24 hours of straight rain, this site also turned into a muddy lake, making packing up an interesting endeavor.

  No camp host, and I think the rangers checked on us daily, but we never had a conversation.  There were several deadfall trees located in close range of all campsites, so you can cut your own firewood easily -  PLEASE don't be that person who destroys a live tree just because you don't want to walk (we saw a few trees suffering from hatchet wounds at our site).

  Hubby mentioned the men's restroom was quite dirty, but I thought the women's side was clean enough. No hand soap provided.  Bear-proof trash receptacles located throughout loop, with most of them at the restroom.

  Overall - loved that every site was located amongst the trees. Virtually no wind - in spite of a cold front moving in - and every site was mostly free of trash and debris left by previous campers. Would recommend to anyone looking for luxury among the Ozark USFS accommodations in the winter, if you're not looking for a spot for your 5th wheel or travel trailer.

  White Rock Mountain Recreation Area

  Mountain top camping

  White Rock Mountain Recreation Area, in the western Arkansas Ozarks, has a campground with 9 tent sites. One of these is a large group site. 8 sites are arranged along a gravel loop road. In addition to tents, these tent sites will accommodate a camper van; the best sites for vans are #1 thru 4. These are level. Sites 5 thru 8, on the west side of the loop, have great views, but are probably not level enough for van, truck and car camping. Each site has a level gravel tent pad, grill, table & fire pit. The sites are not large enough for RVs. The forest roads leading to the recreation area are rough in places, but passenger cars can make it. Amber, our host, is fantastic. She delivers firewood to your site after purchase. The vault toilet is clean. Pump water is available. No hookups. The campground appears well maintained. The OHT runs though the recreation area. There is a really good hiking trail that loops around the rim of the mountain, offering fantastic views of the Ozarks. T-mobile cell service is available with sporadic LTE data service.
