Fourth Trip to the Island House

Perfect place for Midwest summer week

This is our 2nd time staying at this house. Perfect place for summer week in the midwest. House has everything you need. Lovely screened in porch that looks out on the water. 2 fire pits were awesome. Paddle boards to cruise the lake. Owner is always great to deal with. Responds back quickly with answers to any questions. We definitely recommend this Diamond Lake house!

Fantastic home on the Lake

We had an amazing week on Diamond Lake. The house was fully equipped for a week of fun and sun on lake. Comfy beds, strong AC, and a stocked kitchen. Outside, the huge dock is perfect for staging all your water sports. We rented a boat and brought 2 eFoils. The tiki bar is a great spot to relax with a cocktail after a long day on the water. Jacqui was easy to work with and quick to communicate. We will be coming back for sure.

Third Trip to the Island

This is our third time staying at this property and I will be booking it again next year. We love being on the island and the dock on the channel is perfect for my boat. The yard is large for games like bags and Frisbee. The house is always clean and well stocked. Jacqui is very helpful and responds to questions very quickly.

SUPER CUTE!

We had a small girls weekend and it was great! Would be perfect for a couples weekend. Place was clean to the eye. Awesome views and tons of space! Regular cable television and limited streaming - which we made work with our hot spots! Best appliances and quality If sheets and towels I’ve had at a place like this!! She had a Fully stocked kitchen which was amazing! You really could bring your own clothes and food and be set! & barge was easy access!!

Perfect spot on Diamond Island

One of the best views and lots on Diamond Island - even on Diamond Lake! Great lawn for lawn games and a pier for your boat. We hung out almost the whole time on a large screened in porch - keep those summer bugs away! Inside of the house very comfortable. Highly recommend this home.

This place will not disappoint

This place is beautifully decorated, very comfortable, and the view of Diamond Lake especially in the morning (from the upper deck) is so peaceful and serene. Jacqui has thought of everything, you really just need to bring yourself, your clothes and food. The beds are super comfortable which is always a bonus. A fully stocked kitchen with every dish, pot, tray, utensils, sharp knives, cutting boards, etc you could possibly need. I was very impressed and Jacqui has beautiful taste! It was the best vacation, our time here passed too quickly! We plan on staying here again next year if it’s available. We brought our boat too and my husband and son caught blue gill and crappie everyday! I highly recommend this home….you will not be disappointed!

Great Location and Great House

This is our second time staying at house and we have it for another week in July. We love the island. It's like stepping back in time. The channel is great for docking the boat, the backyard is large for playing games like bags, and the house is always well stocked with everything you could need. Jacqui is always very responsive. Highly recommended.

We had a great time visiting Diamond Lake. The house on the island was perfect. The views of the lake were wonderful. The backyard was large and perfect for bags and frisbee games. I especially like the canal and pier for my boat. We really enjoyed walking around the island every day. The house had everything you need and Jacqui was very accommodating and easy to work with. We will definitely be back next year.

Family Trip to Michigan

My family and I had a great stay at this property! We enjoyed the screened in porch and the house was very clean when we arrived and ready for our stay. The house came equipped with anything you would need for cooking. It was very easy to rent a boat at the marina on the lake. Overall, I would highly recommend this as a getaway home!

Fifteen years if renting houses. This was in the top 2.

Lovely house, beautiful lake and great location, good amenities. Our 2 families have rented houses together for the past 15 years and this house was in the top 2. We would come back again in the future. The kitchen was stocked, the house was very clean, the view was terrific. The ferry was easy and quick. We rented a pontoon for the week and the dock was perfect. No complaints from us.

Awesome location!

This was our second stay at the lake house. It is an extremely comfortable home with plenty of room for a family of five. The screen porch was a great place to gather for meals, playing games and enjoying the lake views. The kids enjoyed playing catch in the large yard. The dock was perfect for our boat rental. Many happy memories from our stay! Thank you!

Amazing house

This house was perfect. Pictures just don’t do justice. Awesome waterfront and lawn. It has literally everything you could ever ask for. Fully stocked with pots, pans, blenders, crockpots etc. it felt like a home away from home. It also came with the basics which I usually find to be rare; spices, salt, pepper, etc. Jacqui definitely didn’t miss a beat with this house. She was also super great and communicative. Being on the island was so nice. It was quiet and very private. Neighbors are super cool and friendly, it’s a wonderful community. I wouldn’t change a single thing and we hope to be back soon!

Perfect home and Perfect Location!

Stunning home, stunning view, stunning location! This home was a perfect small family getaway. Staying on the island was added touch to make the vacation special for the family. The barge was easy to take over, the house is right off the main lake in a cove so my kids could still swim and Kayak. I will definitely be renting it again!
