About Diamond Lake Resort
Nestled in the heart of Oregon's wilderness, Diamond Lake Resort has transformed from a humble 1920s fishing lodge into a beloved four-season mountain retreat. Summer beckons adventurers with pristine lake fishing, scenic hiking trails that wind through ancient forests, peaceful bicycle rides along the shoreline, and horseback journeys through meadow and pine. When winter blankets the landscape in snow, the resort becomes a wonderland for skiing, snowboarding, tubing down frosted slopes, snowmobile expeditions across powder-covered trails, and tranquil snowshoe walks beneath snow-laden branches.
Diamond Lake Resort accommodates group camping and provides lodging options suitable for year-round use.
