"The Cabin in The Clouds" is a country cabin with fishing motif, one of a few private homes in Mount Nebo State Park located on Kentucky road across the street from the rim trail. Our 1100-square-foot, A-frame style cabin has one bedroom with a king on the ground floor, a queen, a double-size and twin bed in the loft, and futon couch in the living room. Weekly discounts for only $100 per night. I have deep cleaned upstairs and down, living room painted, detail the kitchen with new shelf paper and request that you could give us a positive review.
Relax on the deck with a drink and watch the deer in the grassy feeding area planted by the park service in the front area. Evening enjoy glowing embers in the fire pit as your family roast marsh mellows on a stick. We also had a horse shoe game at the cabin or the area near the pavllion.
With sleeping capacity for 8 people, it is an affordable family lodging priced below the rates for the State Park Cabins nearby and in a great location near the Rim Trail offering beautiful sunsets.
The park is 1500 feet above the Arkansas River Valley and is a great escape in the summer as temperatures average from five to 15 degrees cooler than the valley floor below. Mount Nebo used to be known in the late 1800s as the resort above the clouds. In 1928 it became Arkansas' second state park. We have an outdoor campfire pit and a 400 sq.foot deck.
Mt Nebo Park has many attractions which include a swimming pool with water slide and life guard from Memorial Day to Labor Day, 14 miles of hiking trails, tennis and basketball courts, baseball fields, mountain biking, hang gliding launch sites, horseshoe pits, and several playgrounds. Or if you just want to have a quiet or romantic getaway and an ideal environment to relax, "The Cabin in The Clouds" is the perfect place for adventure. December 2011 freshly painted the Cabin in the Clouds living room we look forward to your requested date.

Owner's Profile
Owner Description
Year Purchased: 2003
Mount Nebo has always been a very special place for Daniel and Cynthia Schanink who meet on Mount Nebo in a church outting from near by Russellville. The cabin is our second rental property and we have made some lasting memories here with family and friends gathering at the fire pit, watching the wild life such as deer, birds and squirls and I love to walk the eight trails. The state of Arkansas advertised from sunset point for many years.
Why the Owner Chose Mt Nebo State Park
This country cabin is by the deer feeding area in the Mount Nebo State Park with fresh cooler air than the valley, a great place to come and relax. Located across the street from the rim trail that goes around the mountain. One king bedroom with a fouton in the living room, double loft with - 1 queen, 1 double, 1 twin beds.
The Unique Benefits of this Cabin
The Cabin in the Clouds is pet friendly, warm and cozy with a fire place, a fully equipped kitchen, we have a horse shoe pit, fire pit for an evening glow, picnic table on a large deck and to view with visiting deer. Peace abounds since it is off the beaten path on Kentucky Rd in the state park.

So Very Disappointed in This Cabin!

Review Submitted: 11/28/11
First impressions last a lifetime! Never in my lifetime will I stay at this cabin again!! Upon arrival we were disappointed at the sight that greeted us! An old pile of lumber in front yard, 4 trash bags next to dumpster, an old hot tub by front entrance ramp, falling apart-not useable, and the grills to cook on were filthy and unuseable, and that was only the outside!! The inside was in total need of a thorough cleaning and walls in dire need of painting! Broken tiles from bedroom to bathroom, with a dirty rug covering it, shower doors off track. The dust on things above the cabinets was disgusting! The mini blinds covered in dust also. When I called the owner to let her know how diappointed we were in the shape of her cabin, she acted shock to hear this; but according to reviews submitted this yr. in June she knew all this and did not to fix the noted problems. She sent a cleaning lady over and as I told owner, it is not something that can be fixed while cabin is occupied or can be fixed in one day. She had 5 months to fix noted problems from last review submited. We asked for a refund for the last two nights, which she gave, we got another cabin on Mt. Nebo and was able to enjoy our last few days of our Thanksgiving trip.
Owner response:We welcome all comments and suggestions to assist us in making our cabin better for our guests. When our guest called us after her arrival with her comments, we immediately sent our cleaning crew to the cabin to address her concerns. As the guest stated in her review, she would not grant them access to address her concerns. When we received this review, we took off time from our jobs and addressed the comment issues. We did a deep-cleaning on the cabin interior, painted the walls, replaced miniblinds and steam cleaned curtains. New photos were posted on our listing today. Outside: We cut and stacked the wood into 2' lengths that was called a lumber pile. The 4 trash bags were not trash but bags of autumn leaves and were disposed of. The grill was thouroughly cleaned. The hottub is being removed from the property. There are no broken tiles at bedroom/bathroom doorway. The porcelain tile in the bedroom changes to linoleum in the bathroom. The shower doors were not off track when we arrived. Again we welcome all comments and suggestions to assist us in making our cabin better for our guests.

Great "Quiet" Cabin in the Clouds

We enjoyed our stay in your cabin. Yes it could use some minor repairs but overall it was clean and tidy. Never knew the ringing in my ears was so loud till we stayed here. It may be louder on the weekends (which I doubt) but during the week it was real peaceful. The deer visited most mornings and evenings and peaceful walks around the park revealed many more. Can't think of a better place to get away from it all.... but a short windy trip down the mountain and there's plenty to do. The foilage had not really started turning yet but we enjoyed the color "green" as compared to the "brown and burnt" we left in Texas. Hope to get back soon......

My wife and I with my 3 little dogs had a wonderful stay at Cabin in Clouds on Mt. Nebo. Cabin is very nice and the best thing is the peace and quiet! Took drives to sample local wines nearby and visited Mt. Magazine and Petit Jean as well........then back to cabin to grill steaks and have a glass of wine! Fed deer from deck everyday. Also since cabin sits atop Mt. Nebo at about 1300 feet, temps dropped 9 to 14 degrees from town below on drive up.......sure made the evenings nice especially at sunset point! We can't wait to find the time to return..........Owner Cindy very nice and her paintings adorn the cabin!

We were very disappointed in this cabin and left a day early. The cabin needed painting inside and out and also needed a thorough cleaning. There were missing floor tiles leading into the bathroom. A pile of old lumber in the front yard of the cabin and a hot tub that is in disrepair was not an inviting sight. The nicest thing about the cabin was the bed was comfortable and the air conditioning worked great.

DO NOT RECOMMEND!!!

Review Submitted: 06/29/11
I am appalled at the shape of this cabin! Very outdated, absolutely filthy, unkempt, roach & cricket infested, odor filled dump! Very disgusted! I am so very disappointed that I wasted my money on this very special weekend on this particular cabin. The photos online were deceiving. Would not recommend this cabin to anyone!! Total waste of money!!
Owner response:Do not be alarmed. She saw crickets that had died after we had sprayed the day before she arrived and she broke the rollers on the shower door and did not tell us, we fixed it for only $6 and we spray for bugs on a regular bases and have a professional cleaner. No roaches were found on my inspection. If any odor was present in the cabin, it would be the smell of Arkansas red cedar that is used to cover the ceiling, just like a cedar chest. Photos were taken this year with no photo shop.

We had a wonderful stay at the Cabin in the Clouds April 29 & 30. Friday was a beautiful sunny day and we enjoyed hiking with Leah (15 month-old grandaughter). The cabin is very kid-friendly and Leah enjoyed playing both inside and outside until bedtime. It was so quiet and peaceful, such a nice change from living in a busy town! Saturday morning when we awoke we enjoyed watching the deer and taking photos of them. We saw at least 20. We traveled to Jasper, AR during the day Saturday and couldn't wait to get back to Mt. Nebo at the end of our day. When we did get back we learned why it is called the "Cabin in the Clouds!" We had a great, quiet evening before turning in for a night of sleep. The cabin was clean, neat, and well-stocked as promised. We will be returning and highly recommend this rental.
Owner response:We are glad your family enjoyed out cabin on Mt Nebo, thank you for taking good care of it and we look forward to your return.

Thank you for such a lovely place. Mt. Nebo is one of our favorite places but now that we have a 21 year old cat who needs daily medication it has not been easy to stay until we found your pet-friendly cabin. Bed is great and we had everything we needed-even in cold snowy weather.

We heard there would be snow on Mount Nebo and headed to Arkansas to enjoy a few days of winter. Driving up the twisty 2 mile road, salt and sanded we had no problems at 4 pm the state park would not rent a cabin, so we drove around to fine the cabin in the clouds to stay the night. Calling the number on the sign the owners let us stay and it had every thing we needed. We are glad we stayed to enjoy this beautiful place.
