Diamond Lake Resort has evolved from a small fishing lodge built in the 1920s, to a modern family resort that offers year-round service. It is a favorite summer spot for fishing (rainbow trout), hiking, bicycling, and horseback riding. In the winter it is famous for skiing, snowboarding and tubing, snowmobiling, and snowshoeing. All year round it is a wonderful place to take in the beauty of nature and of Crater Lake National Park.

Close to Crater Lake but outdated
It's close to Crater Lake which is why we choose this place and being dog-friendly. Other than that, I wouldn't stay here again. We stayed in a studio, as soon as we entered the room, it was swarming with bugs (mosquitoes, fruit flies, daddy long legs, gnats). The room was outdated and the mattress was really uncomfortable (spring mattress). Each time we turned on the A/C it let out a terrible smell so we decided not to use it. The place has no wifi and the cell service was terrible. We didn't have any in our room and had to walk around the entire place just to get one bar. They charge a $20 resort fee, not sure what amenities this went to since you have to pay for bike, paddle boats, boats and kayak rentals.

Families YES, the rest maybe not
Good location and probably a good spot for young families looking to unwind however the place needs a massive renovation as room we had was stuck in the 1960s. Very old and needs some work Whole place has no wifi and has basically zero cell coverage so don’t expect to have any connection with the rest of the world

Great stay in A17
I was nervous about the reviews but we thought this place was great. Setting expectations of a casual family motel vibe probably helps. Our room felt clean and the on site restaurant burgers were delicious. Our waiter was super nice. This was a great stopping spot before our trip to Crater Lake. We stayed in A17 with zero issues. The AC unit was wonderful during a warm night! There was a mini fridge and microwave as well. Coffee in the lobby was good as well as the mini keurig in the room. The lake was beautiful!!

Day trip!
We took a day trip to Diamond Lake! Great bike trail around lake - you can rent bikes! Great swimming on south side of the lake- so beautiful. Lodge is not impressive, but we had an amazing lunch that exceeded our expectations!

Food was delicious and off road romping was a blast
I can only review 2 parts of the diamond lake resort. We are at the lodge and we rented a UTV for some of road adventuring. Highly recommend both of these things. The wait staff at the lodge was super nice and the view of the lake from the dining room was perfection. We all enjoyed what we ordered. It came out pretty quickly and was hot and delicious. The UTV rental through Polaris Adventures was so fun. The vehicle was clean and handled beautifully. The trails were so fun to navigate. The vehicle was outfitted with GPS so we could figure out how to get around the area. Found a few lakes that were hidden gems. Over all great experience
