Ready to Retreat? Come discover Brookside RV Retreat, located and surrounded by the beautiful Ouachita Mountains 20 miles east of Mena and 30 miles south of Mt. Ida, Arkansas.

Guests have private access to the Big Fork Creek, a great place to walk or picnic while listening to the sounds of the water. In the warmer months, cool off and take a dip in the crystal clear mountain stream. The creek runs along the backside of a 40 acre plot, all of which you are welcome to explore for swimming holes and waterfalls!

The Beaver's Bend State Park is within minutes, as it the Broken Bow Lake. We have owned our property for 12 years, and decided to buy in Hochatown because we had been camping in this area for over 28 years. This area brings us joy, love, peace, tranquility, and seclusion. We love the nature, the water, animals, and sunshine. We even love the rain! Beautiful sunrises and sunsets. Our little piece of Heaven on Earth. We are also close to all of the Hochatown events, eateries, wineries, & breweries. You can go golfing, swimming, get lost in a "secret room" or get a massage, within a 5 minute drive of our location. Grab your pillow, towels, swimsuits, toiletries and come on to Broken Bow Lake (2 miles) or Beaver's Bend State Park (5 miles) and enjoy the great outdoors, in style!

Darbywoods RV Park

3 sites · RVs1 acre · Broken Bow, OK
We love Broken Bow (Hochatown) so bought a lot for our RV so we could enjoy year round. We now spend most of our time in Colorado so want to share this lot with others when we aren't there. This private one acre lot is for only ONE RV nearby Broken Bow Lake, OK (less than 2 miles away). This is a heavily wooded one acre lot comes with electric, septic and water. This lot is very close to the state parks and located in the area called Hochatown. The lot is less than 1/4 mile from the center of Hochatown but very private and quiet. There is a long level pad in the center of the lot. We have 50 amp power (30 amp if you have an adapter) for your RV.   There is a shed on the lot but that is for personal use. Our lot is right off Steven's Gap road on the way to the lake. If you like to fish the lake is less than 2 miles down the road and the river access is close by at Beaver's Bend State Park. The are is abundant with wild life with plenty to do and see.

The best camping near Beavers Bend State Park guide

Overview

About

From the rocky gorges and waterfalls of the Mountain Fork River to the wooded banks of Broken Bow Lake—Beavers Bend State Park was made for adventures. Take to the water to raft or kayak down gentle rapids, fish for trout along the creeks, or enjoy water skiing or paddleboarding on the lake. Tee off at the 18-hole golf course, hike the challenging Skyline Trail, or enjoy a horseback ride along shaded forest trails. There’s even a scenic train ride, mini-golf course, and zipline tours. Campers have the choice of eight campgrounds, plus modern or rustic cabins and group camps. 

Notable campgrounds

  • Best for tent campers: Hickory Campground has wooded tent sites right by the riverside, with pit toilets and a comfort station nearby.
  • Best for families: Fern Campground has riverfront RV sites with a playground, comfort station, and direct access to the entertainment area.
  • Best for RVs: Cypress Campground has well-shaded sites with electric and full hookups available.

Tips for snagging a campsite

  1. You can reserve one of the 393 RV sites, 50+ tent sites, and 47 cabins at Beavers Bend’s eight campgrounds online. All campsites must be booked in advance. 
  2. Campsite reservations open 11 months in advance and can be booked up to the day before arrival.
  3. Campsites can book up as fast, especially on summer and holiday weekends. Book a minimum of six months in advance to avoid disappointment. 

When to go

Summertime brings the crowds to Beavers Bend State Park, and advance bookings are essential for campsites and activities, especially on weekends. To escape the crowds, opt for a late fall visit—not only will you get to see the fall foliage, but you might snag a great deal on a cabin. Annual events, including the Owa Chito Festival of the Forest (June) and Beavers Bend Folk Festival (November), are also popular times to visit.
