The top reason to go to the Bel Arco Resort would be to support the family running it. The second reason would be to enjoy the beautiful Bull Shoals lake. The third reason is to experience these top 5 things to do in Bel Arco Resort (Arkansas).

Play volleyball
Playing volleyball by the lake is refreshing and a bit tiresome, therefore you will definitely sleep better. You may not be alone in the resort, therefore you might need or want to play with other tourists for more fun.

Swimming
You can try and swim in the lake or in the pool is the weather allows it. While the pool is safe for older kids to swim as well, make sure they are always under supervision. The pool is surrounded by a fence with a gate to prevent really young kids from going too close. 

Go fishing
You can’t be somewhere by the lake without going fishing. Should you be lucky, the fish you will mostly catch is the trout. The resort has a boat parking with electrical hookups if you want to bring your own boat.

Enjoy a barbeque
Most people love eating barbeque. Bel Arco resort has a special pavilion equipped with a barbeque for those who dream of only eating this type of food. Make sure you don’t hog the BBQ as other tourists will also want to prepare some of their own.

Go to a cave
If you have children they will surely love exploring a cave or two. Ask the concierge about the oldest cave around, Bull Shoals Cavern. Here’s an important tip about it: it formed 350 millions years ago, the formations inside it change their shape over time, and it is made mostly of limestone. Depending on how far you go you might see the underground rivers as well as various reptiles living in it.
