Factory Location

I am planning a trip soon to the Mountain Home area. Exactly where is MECCA or the actually factory located when driving up from Russellville?

Across 178 just northeast of Baxter Co. Regional airport on County rd. 12 ! Midway, AR., which is between Lakeview and Mountain Home on Hwy 5, You can take the scenic route across the Bull Shoals Dam, then right on 5, then an immediate right on 178, and BCB will be about 1/2 mi. down on left. OR you can come across hwy 62 from Yellville, go into Gassville and turn left on 178 and follow just past airport and BCB will be on the right ! Any more confused now ? Have a good trip, D.

No, go this way. Coming up from Russellville, 1. go Highway 7 to just outside of Harrison, 2. and turn right on Highway 206 just beside the Gaither Mountain Cemetery road. Convenience store on the left, old dairy bar restaurant (was closed) just before the turn on the right. 3. Follow 206 to Bellefonte and turn right on 65/412/62 Highway. You are only on the four lane for a couple of miles. 4. Just past the Sonic Drive In, turn left on 62/412 Highway and go about 40 miles to Gassville. 5. At the stop light in Gassville, (it is the first and only one you come across) turn left on Highway 126. 6. Just past the Baxter County Airport and Yellow water tower, turn right on the County Road #12 into the Baxter County Industrial Park. Bass Cat is on your right there and the road you turn right onto (CR12) is directly in a line with the airport runway. That oughta get you here. BCB

I made the drive to Mecca from Branson several years ago in late October and took 160 E to 5 South. What an awesome drive with the leaves turning, it was better than a Vermont leaf tour in the Fall. The BC folks were available and the most gracious people Ive ever met during my factory tour. Ivan took me for a spin in his Puma and we even fished together for a little while on Norfolk. It sure beat playing with the channel changer at the Hampton Inn! Thanks for an AWESOME memory BassCat!

Thank You and you are welcome and we are blessed to have some really beautiful surroundings. Around Mountain Home there are over a half million acres of State and National protected forests. You can take a country road through most any area and weave your way between ridges. The best time to make that fall voyage is to start in the third week of October and sometimes into the first week of November. You wont miss the peak time much. If you get really brave you can toss in a GPS and take a country road between those small paved roads and really see some pretty ground. Plus some very isolated ground as well.
