Bellah Mine

Peaceful

Nice Campground, well maintained, great host.

This was by far the best glamping experience we have had in the 2yrs since we purchased this camper. I was just 3 months out from double knee replacement surgery and my husband found this place on line as plan B of our trip. The host were so accommodating & helpful, & the camp turned out to be perfect for our 1st get-away to try out my new knee's! We fell in Love with this beautiful, relaxing, quiet place!!!! Loved enjoying our a.m. coffee while watching the sun rise over the lake! Our rambunctious Aussie Sheppard was welcomed & quickly decided to claim the whole place as his to guard & protect! Also enjoyed the bird watching & other animals. If you don't like Real Life Rustic this place is not for you! It doesn't really need updating because that would interfere with the relaxation aspect of camping. The only thing it needs as I see it, is some tender loving care on some of the maintenance of the camp sites themselves. It only takes about 30 minutes to drive to all kinds of activities. We ended up staying 4 nights & going towards & into Mena. Took a short hike to see a waterfall near Alberts Pike. Also bought some fresh eggs & honey from a road side stand that we had shopped @ before when our children were young. Thanks Arkansas, we will be back & tell others about Bella Mine & this area!

Penny and Bill (the gate keepers) came out to our vehicle to greet us and explain the easiest way to get to our spot. They were super friendly and polite. We had an issue with our boat and had to go up and ask about a battery charger and Bill let us use his with no hesitation. The camp grounds were very nice being able to see the water and the shaded spot we chose was perfect with it being so hot. The only thing I can say negative about the spot itself was the wall on the back side of our slide out was touching the ground. We had to place a board and scrap out some rocks so it wouldn’t scuff it up so bad. There was enough parking for our camper a vehicle and our boat but had to park my car on the side of the road which worried me. All in all it was an excellent vacation spot.

Clean, quiet and relaxing. My favorite place when I can get the spot I want

The park seems to be aging and could use some TLC. It is in a nice location, though, with pretty views. Whatever you do, don't go down a road the wrong way. This was my first time here and I did it one time on accident. Hours later, the park host found me and was very stern with me about it. Honestly, his tone was a little unnecessary. It was an honest, one time mistake but he acted like I had done it over and over. He spoke to me like I was a child. I am all about respecting rules but he could have addressed is a more respectful manner.
