Cost: $ 35.99 per site per night. 2 can share a site. This includes a 10% discount (for cash) to our
group, but there is an 11% “accommodations tax” levied by the city (included in this total.) They are
keeping a row for us, however, if they need space, they won’t turn others away – so make reservations
now! A $25 fee will hold your reservation, the balance can be paid in cash at arrival to receive the full
10% discount.
Coordinates: 35.87466 N, 92.10119 W
Directions: 711 N. Bayou DR, Mountain View, AR.
From the south or west take Highway 5 north out of Mountain View, Past Wal-Mart on the Right, go
about 1/2 mile farther north. Turn East (right if coming from south) onto N Bayou Dr. You can see the park from there. This is a very short distance from where the campout has been the past few years.
NOTE: If pulling a camper larger than a motorcycle camper, it is a more than a 90 degree turn onto N Bayou DR. To avoid this, continue through the light at the intersection of Hwy 5/9/14 for another ½ mile, then turn left onto North Bayou DR (by the State Farm Office). Go north for ½ mile to campground. If coming from the east, turn right onto N Bayou DR before you get to the main junction of 5/9/14.
Conveniences: Very nice RV park. Bathrooms are very clean. They are keeping the top row for our
group. This row overlooks a very nice green valley. As a group, we will be provided with a nice meeting
room with fridge, stove, table, etc. – we just have to clean it when we are done. We can also use a patio
on each end of this building, overlooking the valley. There’s gas, groceries, ice cream, music, flea market shops and much more – all in Mountain View .
These are very nice people to work with. Shawna is the one you will need to talk to about a
reservation. Tell her you are with the IBMC. She has assured us that if you reserve a site, that is the site you will get. A map is on their website.
Cook Off Rules: Only enter what you cook on site. That’s the purpose of the cook-off. There is a Main
Dish and a Dessert Dish category. You don’t have to dutch oven cook, but that’s what makes this fun.
If you don’t cook, just bring a dish to share.
