Mountain View, Arkansas

We left Savannah, Tennessee on the morning of 8/25/14 and drove to Mountain View, Arkansas. We saw a ton of farm land! Seems like we could never run out of food with as many crops and farms as we saw.
I think we were spoiled by the last couple of RV parks because this one just doesn't measure up. Like they say in home sales, curb appeal is everything. Our first view of this park was the entrance and office area where the weeds and grass probably haven't been cut in months. I think the fact that it is so stinkin' hot here and we are pretty much stuck in the RV doesn't help. We need cooler weather! The park is small, but it's not bad. Just 100 feet from our site is a road down the hill to the "lower level." Smaller campers can camp down there and be right on the beach. The creek that is there is part of the White River and is controlled by the Army Corp of Engineers so the water level varies as they see fit. I thought about putting my yak in the river and trying some fishing, but it is too stinking hot! See above reference to "stinkin' hot"!!!
Tuesday, we went to a nice little restaurant called the Wing Shack and Cheeseburger Grill. I hereby testify that they have great cheeseburgers!
Yesterday, we did a bit of sight seeing and drove some of the mountain roads through the Ozark Forest.
Maggie seems to like going down to the creek. She always seems to run and do #2 when we go down there! In all fairness, this is an OK campground and the countryside is beautiful.
Here are some pics! Clicky thingy
Tomorrow, we headed to Eureka Springs!
