I love libraries. Surrounded by ideas and physical media I feel.... happy. I worked at a library…read morefor years when I was in college and always feel at home when I'm at my local library or visiting one elsewhere. I recently moved to the area and was amazed to discover that my new local library just happens to be the best library I've ever been to. The selection of books is excellent and the children's section is wonderful. But they go above and beyond in so many areas; They have a great selection of the normal fare movies, audio books, and magazines. But you can also play and check out board games, graphic novels, telescopes, and fishing rods. They have a teen area. Study areas. A bookstore, where you can find great prices. And they have a cafe. Visit and support this gem of a library!

The library is beautiful, with sections for everyone. The staff is also very helpful and kind.read more

This is a great spot for study or internet but it was too quiet to try and pull off a Zoom bridge if you need to talk. Sure, a few shouting kids and the librarians tend to talk loud but I think the patrons are expected to be silent. Stacks and stacks of books, magazines, reference, tables for spreading out, comfy chairs for sitting and a "Library of Things" that you can borrow as well.

The facilities are amazing and the staff very friendly and helpful. I attend the Community center…read moreabout four times each week. I swim and use the gym. My major concern is trying to get a swim lane frequently due to swim teams or special organizations dominating the pool. These teams should use the pool during the hours the pool is not available to regular members as they do not require the presence of a life guard.

What's not to love about a gigantic pool for kids and then a quieter very nice lap pool for adults…read morein another section? The water slides are a blast and it's fun to revisit my youth and actually dive off a high dive.. a lot of places have gotten rid of high diving boards. Dressing rooms are kept clean and showers as well. The price is fair for residents and non-residents. The only thing I would change is probably more lifeguards on the kids side there's a lot going on and a lot of noise. Would have been a trifecta of perfectness if they had put an outside pool as well. They could have also used some showers poolside so you don't have to walk into the bathroom to use one. The workout area does tend to get a little too crowded on the weekends but I guess that's normal for a lot of places. The indoor walking track is amazing for the summertime where it's too hot to walk outside. All in all a very very great community center.

They have a good selection of movies and audio books which I enjoy. I also like the free community events like the recent Mother's Day craft and the Lunch and Learn talks. They have teen movie nights and art club and plant exchanges for adults that we have attended. I do wish they had a bigger selection of new releases and audiobooks though. And a lot of the computers, especially in the kids area, are broken. Tip: if you have a Fayetteville library card you can check out books here!

The one door has a large clear panel and is secured with a magnet. Inside, quite full with books. A mix of hardcovers and softcovers with some thrillers, fiction and self-help, non-fiction and a cookbook. Nothing that caught my eye and because I was walking, I didn't add anything today. This is charger number 36536. The steward has their name and email address in the online listing. [Review 19802 overall - 278 in Arkansas - 775 of 2023.]

It opened in November of 2011 by founder Alice Walton & heiress to the Walmart fortune. Her intent to offer public access to American art and integrating natural landscapes into its campus like design has brought people from all over to visit. I loved the high ceilings, glass windows, art, sculptors, landscaping and botanical gardens. So many fascinating things to look at and educate oneself about. Great place to take the family or a group. They offer tours which if you have the time I would recommend... *General Admission is free but you can make a donation. There are a few exhibits that you must pay for to see. *There is a cafe & shop located on the entry level. *Parking garage fills up quickly. There are more lots located further away from the museum. You will have to walk a bit but the grounds are beautiful. ~ and that's all I have to say about that...

I don't have the acumen enough to convey how sick this place is, my vocabulary fails me. You just have to visit it and take it in one angle, one hall way, one vista at time and come away truly impressed. BTW did I talk about the individual pieces on display because they are numerous, vibrant and more importantly- relevant. This is art for the masses. Art has a built in haughtiness but this is more digestible to everyone. The Getty Museum as gorgeous as the grounds are - left this plebeian wanting on its exhibits. Did I mention entrance is complimentary! They should charge. They're worth it.

Admission is whatever you choose to donate. My teens participated in the arrowhead "dig" in the area around the teepee out front...they got to keep one of the arrowheads they "discovered" and then purchased the rest with some mad cash from their grandma! You need about 2-3 hours to make your way through the entire museum and get the gist, and a bit more than 3 hours if you want to listen about each numbered artifact with the provided sound wand. I'm so glad we stopped for the morning!
