The center also exhibits artifacts from the battleground and maps of troop movement during the three days of fighting. The upstairs rooms of the Harper House feature period domestic furnishings. The Harper children remained at home with their parents when the house was taken over by the Federal XIV Army Corps for use as a field hospital. The visitor center is fully accessible. The Harper House and outbuildings have steps and are accessible with assistance.
Tables are available on the grounds.
A gift shop is located in the visitor center with items related to Bentonville and the Civil War. Summer seasonal living history programs occur in July and August. Guided tours of the Harper House and outbuildings are scheduled on the hour throughout the day. We ask that groups make reservations in advance. Donations are accepted.
