The Lazy Trout. Livin Lazy at the Little Missouri River
Located at the Little Missouri River at the historic Old Factory Site. This 2 story cabin provides all you need (and everything you don’t) to get away and LIVE LAZY! One of very few homesites located near a trout release point. You can get your gear and walk right to the river to start fishing!
The cabin's interior is a combination of rugged log cabin with a modern flare. The finish out is clean and simple yet continues to remind you that you are tucked away next to the Little Missouri River. This fully furnished cabin allows you to walk in and immediately GET LAZY! The downstairs has an open living/entertaining space with a full kitchen, dining area, and living area that stays the center of all the action. As you make your way to the back of the cabin you will find a full bath and full laundry room. At the very back of the cabin are two queen bedrooms separated from the living space so you get the rest you deserve! Upstairs is an additional queen bedroom, full bathroom, a hang out area with 1 queen fold out couch, and access to the balcony perfect for your morning coffee. As you make your way back down stairs and outside, you will find wrap around porches that lead you to the back of cabin entertaining space. This space includes a fire pit, park style charcoal grill, picnic table, and outside games. Wildlife is plentiful, it is not out of the ordinary to see deer in the yard, eagles flying over head, and trout swimming in the river!

Comfortable beds, well appointed kitchen, very clean, very nice laundry facilities, lovely fire pit & outdoor seating. Such a perfect location for visiting Diamond Crater State Park! Our host was kind and responsive!
We had an amazing time in this sweet little modern cabin. Everything was beautifully decorated & comfy & cozy. It was the perfect distance from the Crater Diamond Park.
This cabin was perfect for our family trip. It is in a great location for fishing and a trip to the diamond mine. The towns people are also very friendly. We really enjoyed the local restaurants too.

THE PROPERTY WAS BEAUTIFUL AND WELL DECORATED. PLENTY OF ROOM AND A RIVER CLOSE BY. WE ENJOYED THE FIREPIT NIGHTLY. WE ALSO ROASTED HOT DOGS AND EVEN HAD SOME SMORES OVER THE CAMPFIRE TOO. OUTDOOR LIGHING WAS ALSO BEAUTIFUL. WOULD DEFINITELY STAY THERE AGAIN.
We enjoyed the cleanliness and thoughtful additions all through. From the decor to the bedding, to the toiletries. It was all so well thought out! We loved our short, but sweet stay!
The cabin was nice, very roomy and clean. It has a full kitchen. There is everything you need to dig for diamonds and gems at the crater of the diamond. We enjoyed our stay.
No problems. Nice place to stay. Easy access to river and we caught several rainbow trout every day. Pretty close to town to get breakfast or lunch. Thank you.
This place was amazing and exactly what we were looking for. The house was spotless and the host was very quick to respond to all questions. We loved wading in the river in the evenings. It was the perfect place to stay when going to Crater of Diamonds.
We stayed two nights and loved it! Beautifully built, furnished, and decorated cabin up the hill from the river. Not far from the diamond mines where we spent one day and then back to the cabin to grill burgers and make s’mores around the fire pit. Would definitely recommend this place!
The cabin and property were beautiful! Lots of games and enjoyed the fire pit! It is very peaceful and loved listening to the creek outside of the cabin! We had a great time.
We really enjoyed the property and it was perfect for the six of us. It was clean, nicely decorated and felt homey.
My only suggestion would be to have some firewood available for the fire pit area.
We absolutely loved it!!! The location is beautiful with deer roaming freely. The sound of the river flowing was tranquil. The cabin had everything we wanted and needed. We absolutely loved the cabins layout it was very spacious for 5 adults. The balcony on the second floor was awesome for enjoying a cup of coffee in the morning.I will definitely be back again!
Had a great time. When to the river and took engagement pictures for my son and future daughter in law. They turned out amazing. Would definitely rent again.
A great cabin to stay for a relaxing 3 days. It had everything we needed as well as a short walk to the river and drive to the lake. We enjoyed ourselves a lot. Beds were super comfy and cabin was nice and cool inside. Morning coffee on the porch and evening smores at the back. Lots of room for board games and movie watching as well.
The cabin was clean, comfortable and peacefully located in nature. Loved listening to the creek and the song birds. Lot's of fireflies and even saw a group of young doe right behind the cabin. Best few days ever spent on a getaway. Would absolutely go back!
This is a fantastic cabin! Such a lovely location. Loved the fire pit and it was fun to have some outside games. Enjoyed drinking my coffee in the beautiful porch watching the birds. Close to Crater of Diamonds. Just so much fun! We will definitely be back!
This cabin lives up to the pictures and the description provided. It was one of the cleanest and most up-to-date places I have stayed and plenty of room for the six of us(ages14+). The cabin was close to the Crater of Diamonds State Park (about 15mins) and if I chose to revisit the Park I would want to stay there again. Travel dates 7/31/24-8/3/24.
