Quiet clean trails close

This camp is well maintained. Not many Van sites less than 10. About the same tense spaces. Clean and well done showers and bathrooms. Need to make reservations for in advance three months? Workers were very helpful.

Beautiful and easily accessible!

This campground was so beautiful and easily accessible! I loved the proximity to town and easy access to the Coler mountain bike trails, walking trails, and super cool cafe in the middle of the woods. The restrooms, fire pits, and tent platforms were well kept and clean. Defiantly the nicest restrooms I have ever experienced at a campground! Ben, the campground manager, was also super friendly and knowable about the Coler and anything in the Bentonville area. I really appreciated all of his help!

Go figure

Oddly, they allow 23 foot Wilderness Assault Vehicles, but a 12 foot teardrop trailer is a bridge too far for them. Arkansas, I guess.

Thank you for sharing your thoughts and for choosing to stay with us at Coler Campgrounds. We understand your frustration regarding the regulation on camp trailers within Bentonville city limits. While we agree it might seem puzzling, these regulations are set by the city to align with local zoning and land use policies. We truly appreciate your feedback and the time you spent with us. We hope to have the pleasure of hosting you again in the future under more accommodating circumstances.

Best bargain in Bentonville and really nice too

Stayed at Coler for a week April 16-22 and was really impressed with the facilities, and Ben is a first rate host.  The grounds are meticulously maintained while the bathrooms are super nice and clean!  Stayed in one of the van spots with my GCF camper and it worked out really well...they even proved leveling blocks (which were needed).  Easy to access fresh water, dish cleaning area, bike wash, Ebike chargers...they really put alot of thought into this place.  Of course the riding at Coler is great too with a good mix of easy and techy cross county trails as well as some fun flowy jump trails all just a few feet away from the campsites.  The price is also such a bargain, a week for $190!  Keep up the great work Coler and thanks again to Ben for a great stay and those nightly bon fires.

Worth more than $15/night!

The bathrooms are extremely well kept and air conditioned so you don’t have to worry about staying sweaty after you shower. Complimentary firewood and platforms at each campsite. The trees offer nice seclusion between you and the close-by campsites. Carts available to carry equipment from your car to campsite easily.

Best Glamping experience!

My two children (3 and 6) had their first camping experience at Coler Campground this spring.  Highlights of the camping trip; Heated bathrooms, showers with HOT water, Airship coffee nestled off the greenway, trollys to haul your gear to the tent platform and campfire wood abundant and at the ready less than 10 yards from the fire pit.  It was by far the best choice for my family, considering I've camped on river banks to thick forest terrain this was a dream.  Don't get me wrong, rugged and remote has its charms. But If you want to give your kids an amazing first camping experience or you just want the luxury of a HOT shower in the morning...then this is the place for you!
