Free Watercraft - 50 Ft to the water

Welcome to Lake Life on a Peaceful 3‑Lake Chain!

Enjoy our FREE complete lake toy package included with your stay (Available ice-out through mid-to-late October, weather permitting):
• Kayaks
• Canoe
• Paddle Boat
• Paddle Boards (SUP)
• Lily Pad & Floats, & Life Jackets
• Private 100 ft Shoreline & Dock

Wake up in a modern lakefront home designed for slow mornings, full lake days, and firelit nights. Only 10 minutes to Aitkin and 25 minutes to the world‑famous Cuyuna MTB Trails.

The Experience
This is what lake life is supposed to feel like.

• Mornings begin quietly — coffee on the deck or dock as the sun rises over Diamond Lake and mist lifts off the water.
• Afternoons are for exploring the connected 3‑lake chain and Ripple River system by kayak, canoe, paddle boat, or paddle board—or floating on the lily pad and tubes, all included with your stay. Swim, float, fish, or drift between lakes with no schedule and no crowds.
• Evenings slow down as the firepit glows, the lake turns glassy, and you can watch the sunrise and set with the absolute best view right from the dock.

Guests often tell us they sleep better here than anywhere else.
