jbck Springdale, AR age: 54	Yes, at least some do. I have never been. My daughter has and though she found no diamonds she found other neat stones. The web site is: http://www.craterofdiamondsstatepark.com/ I plan to go some day. I figure it's a little hot to be grubbing in the dirt in a barren field this time of year, but go I will sometime before I die, I hope.

I had a friend visiting from Washington State in February and she wanted to go there. We did, she was out there just a diggin while the rest of us sit inside where it was warm because we were freezing our A*** off. But, it was fun for her, she didn't get any diamonds but like your daughter found some real neat stones. The best part was the next day in Hot Springs and going to the spa for the full treatment. I would definately do that again!

dancer2010 Bentonville, AR age: 59	I went first part of Oct last year, and I enjoyed it very much! I did not find any diamonds but had so much fun..you will meet people from all over in US. I loved hearing their stories of Diamond Mining. Also, next day I went to the Quartz mines as well..This is great for the entire family! I brought home some beautiful rocks for my flower garden!

dancer2010 Bentonville, AR age: 59	Don't know anything about a Lodge, I stayed in a cabin in camp ground about 1/2 mile from the mine. 2 Queen size beds..think it was 40.00 per night...not really sure..my son took care of it for me. We did call a motel there and it was about 80.00 per night.
