Marylake Carmelite Monastery, Catholic monastery near Little Rock, Arkansas.

The monastery spans across 400 acres of land, featuring a fifty-acre lake and pine forests south of Little Rock, Arkansas.

The property transformed from Shrine Country Club in 1926 to a hospital under Dr. Brinkley before becoming a Carmelite monastery in 1951.

The monastery serves as a training center for men entering the Discalced Carmelite Order through intense prayer and spiritual preparation.

Located at 5151 Marylake Drive, the monastery operates 15 miles south of Little Rock and requires advance reservations for retreat programs.

The monastery grounds include a dedicated cemetery, established in 1966 on what was previously a golf course hole.
