Your own island! Who has not dreamed of having one? This little gem of an island can be yours for a week. Little Diamond Island is a 1/4 acre island located in Lake Cobbossee in West Gardiner Maine. Just 20 minutes from Augusta
Please note: good housekeeping is required of everyone. No cleaning service is provided.

The space
Little Diamond Island in Lake Cobbossee is a unique lake front vacation rental. Rustic 3 room cabin with lake views from every window. The lake is just steps away in any direction. Sandy bottom swimming areas and the lake is great for boating, canoeing, kayaking or jet skiing.

Island vacationing is not for everyone. If you love camping (not the same as RV'ing) you will love this. It is a lot like camping except you have a real bed to sleep in. Rustic in nature there is no electricity or running water. We do provide a composting toilet, propane stove, refrigerator and solar campers shower.

This is a peaceful spot for anyone who loves nature. Except for the occasional boat the only sounds you hear are the young osprey begging for food in the nest above the cottage and the mournful cry of the loons as they float past the island. You can see nesting osprey, pileated woodpeckers,turtles, hummingbirds and otter.

Guest access
The whole island and cabin is yours for your stay. We provide a canoe, paddles and life vests. Parking spot on the mainland is view-able from the island.

Other things to note
The island does not have running water or electricity. We have a composting toilet, solar shower bags, propane lights and appliances.
No available cleaning service. Everyone is required to clean before departure.
Please note $59 "management fee" is a damage waiver that covers up to $1500 of accidental damage . Which is why we do not require a security deposit.
