The Inn at Bella Vista, a 9000 square foot rock, glass and cedar building situated along a ridge top in Northwest Arkansas, was initially designed by world famous architect, E. Fay Jones and evokes the feeling of Frank Lloyd Wright in visitors. Located in the center of Bella Vista and only minutes from Bentonville, the Inn is situated on 14 acres of trees, gardens and native plants offering wonderful views of the beautiful Ozarks year round. While the Inn offers easy access to all of Bella Vista's amenities and to the surrounding areas, it is a relaxing haven where guests can unwind and enjoy being pampered.
Your host, Beverly Williams, has worked to create a retreat that is
an environmentally friendly haven for wildlife. For bird lovers, there is a wide variety of birds to watch. Every month seems to bring a new and exciting change to the wildlife visitors. In July and August, a variety of hummingbirds flock to the numerous feeders while Monarch butterflies stop over en mass in September. The beauty of the fall foliage in October sets the stage for the arrival of the Bald Eagles for the winter. Add to that the daily visits by the deer, chipmunks, squirrels, possums, foxes and the occasional coyote, and life is always busy at the Inn.
Only fifteen minutes from the Wal-Mart Home Office in Bentonville, Arkansas and about twenty minutes from Tyson Foods, J.B. Hunt and the University of Arkansas at Fayetteville, the Inn is an ideal base for the business traveler. All our rooms feature a king or queen-size bed, private bath, private phones, a sitting area, workspace and high speed wireless Internet access. Staying at the Inn is a chance to relax and decompress after a busy day in town. In addition, the Inn is available to host private meetings, planning sessions or retreats.
