The Coler Mountain Container House is hands-down the coolest VRBO I've ever stayed in and truly Bentonville's "Best of Both Worlds!" It's a tranquil slice of heaven on country roads with peaceful pasture views and the sounds and songs of nature, yet only a 5-8 minute drive to Downtown Bentonville.
My husband rode out the door from the Container House to Coler, Handcut Hollow, Blowing Springs / Wonderland, and Slaughter Pen, while I spent my mornings running to / through Coler. It's a 1.2 mile run from the Container House to The Rise staircase in Coler if hiking stairs is your thing (DO IT! It's a killer workout!), and Airship Coffee is just beyond that.
The house itself is incredibly unique and comfortable in every way imaginable. The kitchen and bathroom are well-stocked with all that you'll need. Chandra has thought of everything and her hospitality made us feel like we were old friends coming to visit. If you need a trail guide while you're in town, definitely ask Chandra if her husband is available - he's an awesome resource! Both of them went above and beyond to make sure our stay was unforgettable!
We love that shipping containers have been repurposed into something so useful - the concept of a home made from shipping containers was fascinating to both of us, and we were blown away by how spaciously and beautifully the construction of the home was executed. Highly, highly recommend and will definitely be back to the Coler Mountain House in the future!
