About
Hi. I live in Bentonville.
I'm not the city, a tourism office, or a company. I'm just a resident who likes it here, and I decided to build this site so people visiting can see the best of it.
A lot of folks come for a work trip or a bike weekend and don't expect much beyond that. Then they walk into Crystal Bridges, ride a trail that starts right in town, or find a good dinner downtown, and it hits them that there's more here than they planned for. I wanted to make that easier to find on the first trip, not the third.
What you'll find here
- The places themselves: restaurants, coffee, museums, places to stay, and trails, with addresses, phone numbers, and hours.
- Things to Do, for planning around the actual days you'll be here.
- A few longer guides if you'd rather read your way in. There's one for a first visit, one for coming back, and one on how a small county seat turned into the town it is now.
A couple of honest notes
I work hard to get the details right, and I check them against each place's own website and public listings. Still, restaurants change their hours, trails close for repairs, and now and then a place just shuts its doors. If a stop really matters to your trip, give them a call before you head over.
If you spot something wrong, or know a place I should add, email me at hello@bentonvillecitydirectory.com.
That's it. Enjoy Bentonville. I hope you like it here as much as I do.
