Rising 1,350 feet, Mount Nebo offers sweeping views of the Arkansas River Valley. In 1933, a portion of the mountain was chosen as a park site. Native stone and logs from Mount Nebo were used by the Civilian Conservation Corps to construct many of the park's bridges, trails, rustic-style cabins and pavilions. The park offers 35 campsites (25 Standard B; 10 Hike-in) [no dump station] and 14 fully-equipped cabins with kitchens.

Located in Arkansas, this park was established as a health resort by the late 19th century. It became popular for its cool breezes and panoramic views of the River Valley.

In 1909, it transitioned into private ownership under W.B. Duncan who constructed numerous cabins on site to accommodate visitors.

The Civilian Conservation Corps (CCC) acquired control during the Great Depression era around 1933-34. The CCC made several improvements including building roads, trails and pavilions within the park boundaries.

Post World War II saw an increase in tourism which led to further development such as camping sites and additional facilities like swimming pools being added over time.

It is now managed by Arkansas State Parks Department since its acquisition from private hands back in early '70s.

In addition to the campsites at Mount Nebo State Park, the Park service also operate 14 comfortable cabins with fully-equipped kitchens and fireplaces that are available for rent.
