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!

The Little Missouri River is controlled by the Hydroelectric Dam which is used to generate power. The river will rise as much as 3 feet when generating. The generation schedule is subject to change without notice to meet power demand. In addition, the schedules from SWEPCO only reflect releases through the hydropower facilities and do not include normal U.S. Army Corps of Engineers releases.

Family kayak and sxs vacation

We enjoyed the property very much, the only slight issue was us not knowing the dam at lake greeson was being worked on the week we were there which meant they were pumping the lake down and that made the river near us a little to high and moving too fast to be able to fish or get in the water. We we're able to spend plenty of time on the lake which was only a short drive down the road from the cabin though so it was ok. We loved all the pine trees everywhere and we'll definitely be coming back to Arkansas.

Lovely house

The house was lovely. Clean and just as described. Lots of clean towels and bedding available. Just a short walk to the river. Very comfortable. We traveled with our children and grandchildren for a family vacation. One thing, if you travel with toddlers, there is no baby gate for the stairs. They are wooden and have no rails on one side. Not a problem, just be aware. Also, there aren't many cooking pans available to use. Overall it was a wonderful get away spot and we enjoyed the porches, balcony and firepit. Plenty of room for family and kids.

Living Lazy

The description of the cabin was very accurate and very comfortable. Everything we needed was readily available and the area was really nice for our party of 5 adults and two preschool boys. I have only one suggestion--the hinges on the downstairs bathroom and bedrooms sqeaked loudly and woke sleepers up. They probably need a little oil. Other than that our stay was excellent.

Beautiful and Peaceful

The cabin was beautiful and very peaceful. It clean and pictures are very accurate. Property management was very responsive and willing to answer or bring anything we needed. The river was gorgeous and we enjoyed walking in the river. We tried to fish but soon realized you need more experience fishing trout. 😂 It was a wonderful time and we had lots of fun. Diamond hunting was dirty and a great time too! Best short vacation!!!

Wonderful Cabin Close to Crater of Diamonds

My husband, 8-year-old son, brother, sister-in-law and I LOVED this cabin. It is beautiful inside and out, very close to the river for fishing, has a wonderful outdoor space with a grill, picnic table, fire pit and party lights, has an amazing wrap around porch for lounging, and it is a short drive from Crater of Diamonds. There were even mining tools available to borrow for diamond hunting. The only hiccup was that when we arrived, the property had yet to be cleaned. The host was easy to contact and made sure a cleaning team arrived ASAP. We had such a lovely stay, and my son still talks about this cabin a year later. We’d all love to stay here again someday.

Very Relaxing Stay

The cabin is beautiful and very comfortable. The property is quiet and it was so nice to be a short walking distance from the river. And the owners are great. Super fast to respond to messages. The week we stayed, the weather dropped into single digits and the hot water heater froze up. There was nothing the owners could do, but they went above and beyond to make sure we were taken care of. Brought us a gift and even offered to pay for us to stay in a hotel. Despite the lack of hot water, we had a great stay and can’t wait to come back.

Stop looking- BOOK NOW!

I cannot stress how nice this cabin was or how awesome the owner is! The microwave stopped functioning and I messaged him….he responded immediately and had a replacement at the cabin in less than 2 hours. I can’t get that kind of service at home! My teenage boys had more fun sitting by the fire pit playing games than anything else we did all weekend. We will for sure be back!

Family trip

Property was nice, met all our needs. The river was a short walk away from our cabin. I had originally thought the river was just in front and could be viewed from the porches, but it was not. Visitors might want to be prepared to do some meals at the cabin since there are not a lot of places to eat in the immediate area. The kitchen was well equipped except for linens. Overall, we loved our trip and already planning a return trip.

Diamond Mining Dream

This is a great place. Quiet with comfort of home. Close to Crater of Dimonds (15 min.) The small town doesnt have much by way of grochery (Walmart 20 min away) so stock up before arriving. No beer, wine or liquor is sold in the county, only on premises of a restaurant. We had a nice time cooking in, all the esentials you need were provided including toiletries and paper towels. Thanks for the stay and great experience
