ESSENTIALS
------------
When to go : The best time to visit is either spring ( March to May ) or fall ( late September to early November ) for comfortable temperatures , vibrant foliage and fewer crowds compared to summer , making it ideal for outdoor activities like biking . Getting around : Bentonville is an easy place to
drive around , but parking can be tricky in certain parts of the city at peak times . Downtown is compact enough to be explored on foot or by bike . However , it ’ s best to rent a car if you plan to explore further afield , such as the Ozarks , nearby cities like Fayetteville or if you ’ re heading out on a road trip across other parts of the state of Arkansas .
