Meek's Mountaintop Retreat - Mt Nebo State Park - Sunrise Point - Historic Home | Cabin in Dardanelle

3 Bedroom Cabin in Dardanelle
Location, location, location. Those are the three best things about our historic family home. Meek's Mountaintop Retreat is located at Sunrise Point on top of Mount Nebo within Mt. Nebo State Park. As the name implies, we have spectacular views from the top of the mountain. We are at the end tip of the mountain, with one vista to the East - perfect for watching sunrises, and one to the South, a favorite take-off launch for hang gliders. Relax, enjoying the panoramic view of the AR River Valley, or get physical on 36 miles of world class biking and hiking trails.
Mount Nebo is a flat-topped mountain, located between the Ozark and Ouachita Mountains. It is perfect for weekend get-aways, and Spring, Summer or Fall vacations. Arkansas is 'the natural state', and Mount Nebo is one of its gems. You will see deer daily, hummingbirds in season, flora and fauna of all types. Our mountain is famous for its natural beauty, and lately, the new Monument trails and Enduro bike races. At our cabin, we are more known for R&R than athletic prowess, but don't let us stop you. Some of the trails start right outside our door.
Our two cabins on Sunrise Point are private residences. The Main Cabin is 120 years old, one of the first homes on Mt. Nebo. It has its foibles, but it has been dearly loved by our family for five generations, and we insist that it is comfortable and full of "toys" conducive to making memories. Our guests can enjoy the comfort of our home, but also can take advantage of the many facilities offered by the state park: outdoor swimming pool, tennis courts, baseball field, playgrounds, pavilion for large parties, classes and special events.
Our guests at our Main Cabin love our outdoor seating areas, comfy, premium bedding, full-kitchen and grilling amenities, bike station, herb garden, hammocks and chaise loungers. But they especially love our views!
We often provide carrots so you can feed the deer. Fireflies on summer nights bring sweet memories of childhood. We guarantee an assortment of wildlife - some you will like, and some you won't. Last summer we were visited by armadillos and raccoons. We normally see roadrunners and winged birds of all types in our yard - sometimes even human hang gliders if the wind is right. Other visitors show up unannounced: bunnies, foxes, wood chucks, possums, an occasional field mouse, and once - a skunk. Luckily, the skunk was just passing through - he did not stay.
While Nebo is a forest area, thus rural, nearby towns of Dardanelle (10 min) and Russellville (20 min) offer city services, restaurants and shopping, This tri-peaks region hosts three other state parks. The Holla Bend National Wildlife Refuge (25 min) is great for bird watching and hiking; Lake Dardanelle and the AR River (10 min) offer fishing and fishing tournaments, boating, rafting, kayaking, lots of boat docks and a marina; Arkansas Tech University (25 min) sponsors courses, plays, concerts, football and other sports; Altus (55 min) is the heart of AR wine country. Hot Springs and the Oaklawn horse racing track are 90 minutes. The fabulous Crystal Bridges Museum is a 2 hour drive. So, our area provides action or no action, as you prefer.
Our Main Cabin is primarily a wood house, covered with siding, set on stone footing, surrounded by screened porches. It sits on a three-block yard, so we focus a lot of attention on our outdoor facilities: chaise loungers, sofas, lots of cushions, sun umbrellas, beach towels, benches, 2 dining tables (each seating 6-8), two smaller round tables (each seating 4), a firepit for s'mores, an herb garden, tree hammocks, both a charcoal and a gas grill, with all the BBQ supplies and serve ware you might need. We are often asked if we host weddings. Yes! We love weddings. Let's discuss your needs.
Inside, there is a den with game table, dining table that seats 6, TV (with Roku, Amazon Prime, Netflix, Peacock and other streaming services), free internet of course. In the back of the den are books, puzzles and games for kids of all ages. There are binoculars for bird watching and a telescope for star gazing.
Our full kitchen includes tons of pots and pans, dinnerware, serve ware for entertaining, etc. Owner likes to cook, so you should have all the equipment you might need - plus.
The Main Cabin guest bedroom is a large room containing one double bed and two twin beds. Thus, we list the house as having beds for four, but we also have floor mattresses, chaises, etc plus camping equipment if you group / family is larger.
Note: A second cabin we call Razorback Ridge is our office/ art studio/ laundry area. RR is available on a limited basis if you need a second, private space (VRBO #3371391)
The North and East porches of the Main Cabin include an indoor hammock and assorted chairs, tables and loveseat. The back (West) porch entryway can be used for ice chests, covered bike storage, and we offer hose and faucet outside, plus disposable towels for hike and bike cleaning stations.
The bathroom contains a sink, toilet, fireplace, chair and old-fashioned metal shower. We provide abundant towels and toiletries.
For those who want to 'rough it' camping in our yard - experiencing nature part-way, but with the added comforts of kitchen and bathroom facilities - we provide tents, air mattresses, pumps, sleeping bags and camping linens. This option is often favored by teens.
We love Mount Nebo so much, and we love to share it with others! Grab a coffee and experience the glorious daybreaks at Sunrise Point. Or just sleep in. After all, via VRBO, Meek's Mountaintop Retreat can be YOUR secret mountaintop retreat!
