Brian the host is exceptional!! When we arrived we realized that we couldn't put our slide all the way out or open our door. We called him and asked if we could move to the next site (we were end of the season, so a lot of sites were open.) He said yes, a couple of seconds later; you're moved to that site. Enjoy!
Always waved and greeted us. Bathrooms were very clean and well maintained.

We have been traveling south for the winter for over 5 years and always choose to stay at the Bidwell Point Park campground in Mountain Home, Arkansas along our route to visit with extended family. Bidwell Point has 48 campsites with water and 50 amp electric services. We have a 40' 5th wheel with a dually pickup that fits great in numerous spots. Our campground host Brian and his wife are very nice and helpful with information on things to do in the area. The campground has many sites with Norfork Lake views. All sites are paved, have a fire/grill pit, picnic table and most have a shelter cover over the table. The shower house/bathroom is clean and fully stocked. In the summer, the swim beach is nice for the kids and the boat ramp is easy to get to with parking for your trailer.

Beautiful site, convenient to Gamaliel (1 mile), Mountain Home (the Big City!) about 5 miles away. Pretty campsites. Reasonably clean shower houses/bathrooms. Exceedingly friendly and helpful camp host.

We just love camping at Bidwell out of all rest camp grounds! It fits us really well. Now that it’s open from April to October we get to stay at Bidwell the whole time. We love it!
