  • Nestled in the middle of a woodland area of Bella Vista is one of Arkansas’ 3 glass chapel. The place was so serene walking on the pathway to the chapel. You can hear birds, see beautiful flowers...

  • Visited this Chapel on my way to a photograph wedding in Arkansas. It was in late August and on a beautiful day. It is beautiful and only about a 3 minute walk from the parking lot to the chapel. The chapel is fully enclosed and air conditioned and has lovely light entering the chapel. Just a heads up, I would double check in case they have a wedding (so maybe a weekday visit might be your best bet)
  • I have been to the chapel many many times and it always amazes me how incredible the light is there. It seemingly doesn’t matter the time of day or season, it is always beautiful there. Cooper Chapel is one of the more unique wedding venues in Northwest Arkansas. It is always a pleasure to photograph there.
  • Wow! A must see as stunning and beautiful. Short hike from the parking lot (less than a 1/4 mile). Lots of glass, thus taking in the beauty of the trees and rolling landscape. Definitely a must.
  • Although time was limited due to private events, I had a very good experience! The staff was very helpful and allowed me to get some footage for my hobby. The Chapel is a wonderful location with lots of parking, a clean building & pathways, beautiful scenery and a positive energy. 10/10
  • A peaceful and easy walk to a stunning and unique chapel. Wheelchair accessible and a short walk from the parking lot, the beauty, peacefulness and spirituality of this chapel can be enjoyed by everyone of all faiths or no faith (ie myself who is an atheist.) There is a small loop around the perimeter of the chapel in the dense foliage which lends to a feeling of privacy. This is paved, wheelchair accessible and has regular benches along the path. Expect to spend around 20 minutes here if you are just coming for the chapel, otherwise, you can spend many hours in quiet contemplation.
