Mt Nebo Getaway

Very nice house with everything we needed for a fun spring break getaway. We loved feeding the deer with the provided corn, riding the bikes around the state park, hiking, playing the games they had, and sitting on the porches and enjoying the beautiful view. My grandson was happy they had such great internet.

Couples getaway

What a perfect place!! Everything was wonderful. The home had everything we needed. We enjoyed sitting on the deck and having a gas fire pit to cozy up to. We had plenty of room to move about and not feel crowded when we had guest over for our nightly dinners. We loved the convenience of the home being right in the State park. We were able to park the vehicles and walk every where we needed to go! We would definitely stay here again. BOOK IT YOU WON'T BE DISSAPOINTED Brett & Kimberly were great host!!

Christmas 2024

We came for the view, and it was crazy foggy! When the fog finally broke, the view was breathtaking. It was crazy hard to find in the fog, Google tried to drop us off in the "backyard" and have us "walk up" but the owner gave great directions and everything was perfect!

Amazing home!

The house was everything we were hoping for on our vacation. The home was well stocked with amenities, making it very easy to travel with our children. The views were spectacular, especially from the top deck. There were plenty of things to do just within walking distance, but we were also within an hour from other state parks we wanted to visit. We definitely recommend staying here...so much more comfortable than a hotel.

Spectacular Views! Experience of Wonder!

The main purpose of our trip was to have a location for family to view the solar eclipse. This house offered that and so much more. Clean and comfortable, with direct access to hiking trails, sunrises, sunsets, and all of the amazing nature gifts that central Arkansas offers, and yet, close enough to Dardanelle and Russellville to have access to groceries, gas and creature comforts! Brett and Kimberly were so helpful and responsive-excellent hosts! We would return to this slice of paradise for sure!

Perfect Venue

First let me say, we are already talking about staying next year at this location for our anniversary. Kevin and I had a small (intimate) wedding with our family at Sunrise House. We could not have found a more perfect location. The weather held out for a beautiful outdoor wedding on the main floor deck. We loved the fact that the home is basically set up with three master bedrooms each having a restroom and each having a twin bed option in each suite. The ultimate master bedroom suite on the upper floor has a deck with the swinging bed… a must try. The views out of the massive amount of windows is quite impressive. Brett And Kimberly were most responsive and accommodating especially in the planning of the wedding…thank you ever so much in allowing us to share you home and celebrate our special day during our long weekend.

Awesome stay on Mt Nebo

We had a wonderful time staying on this property. The house is nicely decorated and has all the comforts of home. The outdoor spaces were designed and equipped for maximum enjoyment while hanging outside to enjoy the spectacular views. The family enjoyed the hiking trails and pool area and the kids had so much fun feeding the deer that wandered into the yard every day. We hope to return to this amazing property!

Perfect retreat

We can't recommend this home enough. We spent Thanksgiving week here with our extended family and had a perfect visit. The house is sparkling clean, beautiful, and comfortable. From the cozy blankets for the couches to the large closets to the well-stocked kitchen, there was absolutely everything we needed. The views are stunning; we watched the sunrise every morning. Brett and Kimberly were excellent hosts, responding to every message immediately. They even allowed us to host a large Thanksgiving dinner at the place and were incredibly gracious. This is the perfect place to spend a night or a week.

About the host

The Cornwell name is well known on Mt Nebo, Arkansas because we have had family on the mountain since 1915. It has always been our happy place for all me and all my relatives. A little before 2010, the state acquired our original family home, which is at the drive of our new home which we built in 2010. We have made some of my most favorite memories at this home and now welcome you to enjoy the stunning views, incredible sunrises and sunsets and a peaceful retreat that offers a great outdoor adventure. I hike every day while there and love the hiking and people that make Mt Nebo so special.
