Has anyone else been hearing rumors about Disney trying to buy land in southwest Missouri? I have family that lives in the Bella Vista, Arkansas area and they say that the Walton family is working with Disney to buy land (17,000 acres) along the Elk River between Pineville and Noel. They are telling the landowners that it is for a new Disney theme park. If this is true, that would mean big things for the Grand Lake area since it is just across the border. Also it would only be about 1 1/2 hour drive from Tulsa. People have also been buying up all the available lots in the Bella Vista, AR area which is also just across the boarder from Pineville.
