Parking at the Walmart Museum

We are planning to visit the Walmart Museum in Bentonville, AR on April 6, 2016. Does anyone know if there is parking nearby for a truck towing a fifth wheel? Our combined length is 55 feet.
  • I don't think so. As I remember it is located right in the middle of downtown. Vehicle parking around, but nothing big enough for a truck towing a 5er.
  • We just visited Bentonville over spring break. It's a great little town. We stayed at the Bella Vista Village RV Park, just north of town. If you do decide to stay, this is the park with easiest access to Bentonville.

    The museum is downtown on the square, so there's mostly street parking. I know there is a parking garage near the 21C Museum Hotel, but I don't think that would be tall enough to help you. I'd definitely call the Chamber of Commerce, visitors bureau, or the museum.

    If you have any time to spare, the Crystal Bridges Museum of American Art is breathtaking.
  • We just went through Bentonville last week. If you will walk 2 or 3 blocks there is on street parking, just might have to look around. If you have time visit the Crystal Bridges art museum. Started by one of the Walton daughters, free admission and worth the time. Park at the satellite lot and there should be room.
  • There is no parking for an RV at the museum. Bentonville is a small country town, very charming and the museum is in the center of the town. It looks like an old Woolworth store . The front of the museum is a small area that sells old time products. I had a hard time leaving that area :) Loved the back which is the museum. They even have Sam Walton's old pickup in there and had his shot gun resting against the seat in the passenger side. We stayed at a campground and drove our tow car to the museum. We were there for my husband to evaluate the airport control towers.
