Glamping
The cabin was exactly as described. We loved the wrap around porch and that it was gated. So our granddaughter could run and play and we could set and relax and not have to chase a toddler down. The only down side was they were working on the cabin next door to us. And they had dogs. I love dogs, we have dogs. But we don’t allow our dogs to run everywhere and certainly not to other property. The dogs were small but very aggressive and they would not listen to the owner and return on their own. They did finally come and get them from the yard. But they returned later when we were all inside and pooped on the porch. We had to clean that off before we could come back out with our dogs and family. But as far as the Cabin goes, it was a very cute cabin we had plenty of space for us and it was exactly what we were looking for. If someone was wanting a fancy getaway this would not be it. But if you’re wanting to go camping but not in a tent or worry with loading up a camper this is perfect! You can set on the back porch and listen to the river running and hear the birds singing. Comfortable beds and cozy living room/kitchen. The only thing we had to bring was food. So it gave us a wonderful Mother’s Day weekend with family.

You and your dogs can relax together
Great place to go to and relax with our two dogs (Jack Russell and Malinois). There is a fenced rap around porch for the puppies to play while you hang out on the large porch overlooking the Little Missouri River. Place was very clean. Will recommend to others!

Great stay
This place is so awesome. The only down side was the grass was too high for my blind miniature dachshund. Other than that, this place was perfect! Super clean, peaceful, and beautiful surroundings. We really enjoyed the 2 separate areas where our friends had their own privacy as well as we did. This place had so much stocked at the cabin, much more than most rentals. We all were impressed and loved our stay. We will be back in the future. Thank you for the amazing stay!

Wonderful place with a few small but significant issues
The cabin was quaint and pretty much as described. The river was nice both to see but also to hear at night. The beds were super comfy as well. That said, the heat was not working when we arrived, but once I found the breaker box, that was easily remedied. There were no paper products or seasonings of any kind (salt, pepper, etc), so bring your own, and the kitchen only had one hand towel. The drip coffee pot worked but only for a few minutes at a time. You just have to turn it on a couple times during the brewing process to get a full pot. While all that seems like a bad review, we really enjoyed our stay and would definitely stay again.

There should have been all paper products and more kitchen towels. We are putting a new coffee pot in place immediately. I am so sorry! When these things happen, call the number listed in the cabin.

Cabin of Relaxation
This cabin is very nice! Huge porch and patio/balcony. Has a gated wrap around porch too. I loved just relaxing on the back balcony, rocking in a chair overlooking the river and listening to its calming sounds. My kids loved the upstairs bedroom. The cabin provided mining equipment if you are looking to go diamond hunting.

I grew up in Murfreesboro so I know the town well. I come back to visit family and we always try to get cabins next door to one another. This cabin was perfect for us to be able to visit and relax. It was very clean with lots of dishes, towels, etc to use. The owners are responsive if you need anything as well! We had a great time!

Beautiful!
We enjoyed this property, the river and the town of Murfreesboro. The kids caught beautiful trout. We cooked s'mores and hotdogs on the fire pit. We dug for treasure at the Crater of Diamonds and Ka Do Ha village. The only downside was that the upstairs bedroom (with 2 beds) is only accessible by a separate entrance via an outdoor staircase. We wish the listing would have stated this. It meant that my husband and I had to split up with the children bc we did not feel comfortable with them up there alone. There is a cutout in the ceiling for communication between the levels of the cabin. Maybe a ladder to the upstairs would be helpful!

We had a great time! We went diamond hunting at the Crater of Diamonds, we also went to the Kadaho Indian village. While we didn’t have luck, it was fun trying. We appreciated having the screens and tools to use. The cabin is beautiful! Thanks for sharing your cabin with us. Our dog Salem also enjoyed the River, we went to the other area to get in. Thanks again!

Once we got settled, everything was great! Be sure to note the lock code before you get there, as we had zero cell signal and had to leave the property and drive for ~30 mins looking for a signal just so we could get inside.

Great place to reset
We had a family of four (2&5) + 3 dogs. It was a wonderful place for us to stay. Our boys LOVED digging at the state park but also enjoyed playing in the dirt/sand out front and collecting pine cones. The fire pit was great for smores at night. We did not use the provided charcoal grill. The river out back was a great white noise. Be mindful with small children, the river does elevate quickly when the dam is let loose. The water rose a good 3 - 4 feet when we had just gotten out of the water out back with our littles. We were told by locals you can usually tell when its about to rise by the foam that floats down first, however I did not notice this. There was river access just up the road that was easier to get in/out with small kids or pets. The boys caught clams! The wrap around porch was wonderful for small kids/pets as it had a latched door on it to keep them contained when you do not want them leaving it. Place was well kept and as you would expect a cabin to be. We will likely return in a cooler month!! Thank you again for having us!!

Best of times
This property was fantastic. Beautiful location. Fun time in the river with my grandson (even though I slipped on the moss covered rocks which everyone else thought was very funny). We had to force ourselves to go away from the cabin to do something else. Our gaming, 7 yr old grandson didn’t even miss wi-fi or tablet. Would recommend to anyone of any age.

Excellent private cabin
Very private, clean, extra nice little cabin. One of the best we've staying in. I just wished we had known the level of the river would change each day. We only 3 days and every evening we thought we would go play in the river, only to see it's level was up and it was moving fast. Then in the mornings, the water was low & slow. Turns out there's a damn up stream. Wish we had known.

Peaceful and relaxing
Cabin was beautiful, located on the little Missouri river. If fishing is important, be mindful of the water release from the Narrows Dam as the river gets full quickly. Hubby managed to catch 2 rainbows. Very quiet, end of road. No success at gem mining, :(. Cabin had all that you need, we cooked and ate on the back porch overlooking the river. We ate lunch at the Feed Bin in the square, highly recommend this place. Be wary, if you enjoy a cocktail, the county is dry (other than restaurants) and the closest place is 30 minutes away. Highly recommend this property and the owners were available if needed.

AMAZING!!!
Went to trout fish and didn’t catch a one. We are blaming it on the massive flooding that occurred while we were there and not our lack of fishing expertise! The cabin was clean and supplied everything needed and more. Beautiful place if you are wanting to get away but not too far away from town. The hosts were also very helpful with any questions and quick to answer back. Can’t wait to go back!!!

Nice, relaxing, secluded cabin on the river. Host had quick responses with easy check-in and check- out! The cabin was very clean, toiletries, kitchen necessities, digging tools, games and cable! Although there was not any WIFI or phone service, it was very relaxing to get away and enjoy quality time! The deck wrapped around the cabin with a beautiful view! Perfect for 2 families looking for their own spaces but can also gather together! Definitely recommend this cabin if you are visiting the area!

Our favorite part was watching our rottie swim in the creek. She didn't want to get out. We didn't realize we wouldn't have any cell service. Which wasn't a huge deal but we had to drive up the road to use the phone. And we couldn't use our Hotspot since we had no service. It was nice and quiet though and that was what we needed most.

Overpriced and disappointing
Pulled up and got the one key...for both floors Blinds in the house are broken. Towels feel like sandpaper. Tub doesn't drain while showering Not easy to get to the rapids down the hill. If the water is not rapids it's not easy to climb into the rocky creek. Back porch was cobwebs and just not clean. For that much per night I'd expect a washer and dryer. I know it's not posted, just an observation. The worst part was the day of checkout. If you post check out is at 11am then don't call, text, or email that morning asking when I'm leaving. Completely rude... Enjoy your financial investment. The lake was amazing to swim in and there is a store in town that has amazing emeralds, but was not open, and another store called Town Square Gallery. Robin is amazing
