Summary below
The Summit House is one of a
few private homes in Mount Nebo State Park near Dardanelle, Arkansas. This
4,400' lodge-like-house is perched on the mountain's edge, 1700 feet above the
Arkansas River Valley. It offers 60-mile views of the valley and Ozark
Mountain Ranges.
The home is conveniently located just off I-40 Exit #81 at Russellville,
and 120 miles south of Branson, Missouri.
Four charming bedrooms each have their own entrance onto a 62-foot deck
overlooking the valley. The master suite is 20' x 27' -- with a canopy
bed, a two-person jacuzzi, double vanities, and a shower. With the
addition of day beds, trundles and futons, the home can sleep up to 30
persons. There are five bathrooms.
The fully furnished kitchen includes all cooking utensils, two
refrigerators. There is a TV/VCR in each bedroom and in the living room a
52" TV/DVD/VCR with Direct TV satellite, is also in
the master suite. All linens are provided.
The 60' x 20' great room features porcelain tile flooring, a native stone fireplace. The 38' x 19'
living room has a cathedral ceiling. The 20' x 24' game room offers a sofa
bed, couch, bar, refrigerator, table and chairs, games and pool
table. And the covered porch off the dining room has a gas grill. All
these great home features make this an ideal location for family reunions,
weddings, receptions, corporate retreats, church retreats, and club or
social retreats.
The owner and acclaimed watercolor artist, Cynthia Schanink, teaches
three- to four-day watercolor workshops, and hosts other nationally known
artist's workshops on a regular basis. The mountain's scenery and views
are an artist's dream, and will be yours too. For $250 per day I can bring
watercolor supplies for 10 and give a private lesson for your group.
Enjoy the State Park amenities which include a swimming pool, tennis
courts, basketball courts, ball fields, a kid's playground, and 14 miles
of hiking trails. Activities include mountain biking, rock climbing,
horseshoes, and hang gliding (if you have a glider and a class 3 rating).
Mount Nebo was rated in the top ten resorts in the country in the early
1900's, and was known as "The Resort Above The Clouds".
Enjoy golf on John Daly's home course at the foot of the mountain. Also
Gala Golf course and Chamberlyne Country Club in Danville 15 miles south on hwy 27, or visit any of the seven courses in Hot Springs Village -- 60 miles south on
Hwy 7, which was voted one of the top ten scenic highways in the US.
Branson, Mo. is approximately 120 miles north on Hwy 7, which is an
excellent day trip. The 34,000-acre Lake Dardanelle is at the foot of the
mountain, and hosts bass tournaments annually with excellent fishing.
Temperatures on the mountain are five to ten degrees cooler than in the
valley; and we enjoy a pleasant breeze which makes this a great oasis in
the summer months. Mt. Nebo has temperature inversions in the winter
months and can be warmer than the valley.

My
husband Daniel and I bought "The Summit House" on Mount Nebo in November of 2001.
I began painting the summit view of the river valley from our house. In August of 2002
to Dec 12, 2005 Stanley Rames, my mentor and I began giving watercolor workshops at The
Summit House, then November I had a show of 'The Summit View' at the
Arkansas River Valley Arts Center in Russellville.
