The location was exactly what we needed. It was close to areas of interest that were within a an hour's drive. The house & property itself was exactly as described. The pond is beautiful & I only wished we could've stayed longer to enjoy it more.

Very lovely property with plenty of room. The beds were extremely comfy and we enjoyed the proximity to the state park (and the mining supplies provided!) and spending time on the beautiful private lake. Owners were friendly and helpful. Would definitely stay here again!

We had a wonderful trip and will definitely try to book with when when we go back next time. The hosts are very responsive and helpful in case anything is needed or you have questions. Other than specific personal comfort items you should expect to supply yourself the house was fully stocked and ready to go. The couple questions we had they took care of almost immediately. The pond was wonderful and fun to try and catch some bass, sunfish, perch, and a turtle. Look forward to the pick your own berry patch they said they are starting up and another pond with catfish going in that will be ready in the future. Nicely located and convenient. Thanks for the wonderful stay.

We stayed to do Hot Springs and Crater of Diamonds. I wish we had stayed longer so we could have taken advantage of the fishing. The property is very peaceful and the hosts were very responsive. If we are back in the area we would love to stay again.

Great place, the private pond seems way bigger than it’s listed, we spent so much time out there casting lines with our kids and trolling around on the little boat. My 7yr old daughter caught her first bass and was absolutely hooked. We booked it because it was so close to the diamond park but honestly the stay with the pond was our best memory of the trip!

Perfect!! Close to town and the Crater of Diamonds State Park. It was everything we needed! They even had supplies we could use (buckets and screens) if needed. Our kids loved the lake and we even went out on the boat. Thank you for a great and easy experience!
