Great Experience

This was a great location for Crater of Diamonds (less than 5 min drive). Rustic cabin gave my family the feel of staying in a mining camp. Will definitely be returning.

Perfect location for Crater of Diamonds

The cabin was approximately 2 minutes from the Crater of Diamonds State Park. Made it very easy to get there and back especially after a long hot day of mining. Tim was very responsive to messages and very accommodating. He stopped by to introduce himself and ask if there was anything we needed. Plan on renting again!!

Crater of diamonds cabin

The cabin was as described, check in was super easy, communication was super. The cabin was convenient to both the park as well as the town. Very quiet, had fire pit and grill, as well as screens that you could use to hunt diamonds. Great stay, had deer behind the cabin. Definitely a discover. Many thanks to the owner.

Cozy Feeling Cabin

It was our second time staying here this year. Love that we can bring our dog and nice yard area to walk him. One thing that hasn't changed since our last stay was the driveway coming in. If you drive a pickup truck not a big deal but some of the bumps are hard on your car if you forget to dodge them. That being said, we still won't hesitate to come back here when we can.

Enjoyed Our Stay!

My brother and I needed a place to stay for our visit to Crater of Diamonds while on a road trip, and this was a perfect size for the two of us! Clean and comfortable, pretty good wifi, good-sized tv, and nice bathroom with a good shower. Really strong air conditioner! Both beds are in the same room (one full and one twin). Some dishes/cutlery provided along with a small fridge with a freezer in the kitchen area. There were also a few tools to use at the mine, though I would still recommend renting or buying your own. Thanks for a great stay!!

Loved our stay

Was a nice little cabin within 3 minutes out the crater. Quiet and beautiful spot. A/C was cold and shower was decent size with good water pressure. Got to meet the owner in person and was very pleasant to chat with. Highly recommend for small families looking to ‘camp’ close to crater and easier on younger children to stay.

Cabin was cozy, and in a prime location for the Crater of Diamonds park and the town of Mufreesboro. I highly recommend this place for any other rock hounding nerds out there like myself!

Keeper's Cabin

We stayed two nights in April 2024, just looking for a cheap place to get out of the rain after mining and that's what we got. The location was not within walking distance to the Crater of Diamonds as advertised. The furnishings were dated and the place was in need of a good cleaning, especially the bathroom/shower area. The host was very friendly and accomodating, and the place is pet friendly, but next time I would spend a few bucks more and stay elsewhere.
