Mountaintop Cabin - Bike Hike or R&R - Razorback Ridge at Mt. Nebo State Park | Cabin in Dardanelle
1 Bedroom Cabin in Dardanelle
Location, location, location. Those are the three best things about our family home atop Mount Nebo State Park. Our cabins are at Sunrise Point, and we have spectacular, panoramic views to the East and South, perfect for watching the sunrise or just enjoying the clouds and the beauty of the AR River Valley. World-class hiking and biking trails are accessible right outside our doors. That is the exceptionally good news.
Now for the bad news: The cabin we call Razorback Ridge is our very small studio apartment, 12 x 20. It is jam packed with Arkansas Razorback paraphernalia - Go Hogs! So, you need to be a Razorback fan, or at least have a sense of humor about our kitschy pig mascots.
RR is a separate building, built to accompany our Main Cabin as an office / art studio / laundry and extra bedroom. Most often, RR is rented alongside Meek's Mountaintop Retreat (VRBO # 2898931) when guests desire additional space.
RR has a kitchen sink, washer/dryer, tv, wireless internet, Mr. Coffee and Keurig coffeemakers, bedding, towels, hot water . . . but NO TOILET. That is the very bad news. RR can be rented out on a daily basis to individuals (campers, hikers, bikers, hang gliders) who want an indoor crash pad with microwave, small fridge, a/c and heater. These guests can use the main cabin bathroom 22 steps away, shared with the Owner, but since VRBO lists only completely private spaces for rent - no shared spaces - our description for RR must point out this limitation. As an alternate to sharing a bathroom, RR guests can bring their own portable camping toilet, or use the public facilities of the state park.
Mount Nebo State Park is a flat-topped mountain, between the Ozark and Ouachita mountain ranges. It is perfect for weekend get-aways and Spring, Summer and Fall vacations.
Here at Sunrise Point, wildlife abounds! Hummingbirds and deer are abundant. Fireflies on summer nights bring sweet memories of childhood. You can count on an assortment of critters, some you will like, and some you will not. This week we have been visited by an armadillo and a raccoon. The armadillo was fun. The raccoon - not so much. Normally, daily, you can see roadrunners and winged birds of all types . Sometimes, if the wind is right, you can see human hang gliders jumping off our cliffs. 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, shopping, etc. 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. So, our area provides action or no action, as you prefer.
Available with any RR rental is full camping gear: tents, air mattresses, sleeping bags, pumps, flashlights, hiking sticks, etc. This is offered to those who want an outdoor camping experience, but with the added luxuries of toilet and shower. As a single Mother, I always wanted a campsite where my child and her friends could camp outside next to me, but I could enjoy the internet, tv and a/c - cozy inside - instead of 'full' nature. RR is perfect for that. The bed is a futon which includes a full-size mattress topper, tons of pillows, feather duvets, electric blankets - very comfy! There is an office desk, chair, printer, artist's drafting table, easels, plus cushy beanbag seating for watching TV.
Our RR guests have full use of our three-block outdoor facilities: chaise loungers, cushions, sun umbrellas, dining tables, bike station, firepit, benches, tree hammocks, BBQ grills both charcoal and gas), even an herb garden. . . If you want to borrow books, games or the telescope from the Main Cabin, just let us know.
Inside, RR is comfortable for one, but two is a crowd. We won't even consider renting to more than two, unless you are using tents outside, as you won't be happy, and we always aim to make our guests happy. Also, we only rent RR to individuals as a separate rental IF the Owner is occupying the Main Cabin, thus dates are limited. There are no shared facilities with strangers. If you are renting the Main Cabin, you have total privacy of all the Main Cabin - no shared spaces at all. If you are renting RR as a separate rental, you have total privacy within RR, but will share the MC bathroom with only the Owner.
Some of our guests use RR as a half-way stop between Little Rock and Fayetteville when enroute to Razorback games. Where else can you find total immersion of red, white and hogs? Razorback Barbie dolls, vodka bottles, lava lamps, crock pots, puzzles, croquet sets, darts, night lights and tavern lights . . . paraphernalia too numerous to list.
Grab a coffee and join us for sunrise! We would love to share our hog haven, Razorback Ridge, with you! Sooie Pig!!!
