The cabin we stayed in was "rustic" but clean, functional and comfortable. The resort location is beautiful with amazing sunrise views. I recommend Anchorage Inn for dinner out in the area. Great fishing to be had on Wabedo and Little Boy. The many loons on both lakes are a great bonus. Maggie and Jerry are warm, friendly hosts that work very hard to ensure you have a good stay. Can't wait to go back next year.
This was a great weekend (end of August 2020) in one of Minnesota’s most beautiful areas. We loved the access to swimming, boating, small human-powered boats like the kayak and hydrocycle. Owners included Maggie who was welcoming, efficient, helpful during the whole visit. The small cabin had everything we needed. Exactly as advertised. All stars selected!
Absolutely a 10/10 experience! The lady who owns the resort is incredibly nice and a pleasure to work with. Longville was a beautiful place to visit as well. The place is a little bit older but imo that makes it better. It reminds me very much of my grandparents cabin the had when I was younger. So much fun!
Such a great spot. Maggie and Jerry are the best hosts. Really made us feel at home. Cozy cabin, great fishing, several amenities. We will be going here again!
My husband and I brought our grandkids here camping. What a pleasant experience. It is a very nice and clean resort. Jerry and Maggismake you feel very welcomed and its so nice they come often and visit. They have alot to offer kids play ground and toys , a very nice beach for swimming and lots of docks for fishing. Thank you also for letting us have visitors and they thought $5.00 was very fair and reasonable. We met alot of people that are seasonal and every one is so friendly. It was also nice they had kids there about our grandkids age. When mom and dad came to get our grandkids they couldn't stop talking about how much fun they had and the friends they met and they couldn't wait ti show them the new t shirt and hat that pappa got for them. Jerry and Maggue sells worms ice and wood there which was so convenient. I could go on and on about this resort and the owners it is such a great experience and even better we only had to drive around 15 minutes for our grandkids to have a fun experience with us camping. Thanks again for everything.
My wife and I love Diamond Crest Resort. The campground is well maintained, offering a variety of complimentary activities that families can enjoy. The management team is incredibly kind and helpful. The cabin spots are worth mentioning. Overlooking Wabedo, providing a beautiful scene of the lake and views of glorious sunsets each evening. We have a wonderful time each year we visit. Thank you Diamond Crest!
We absolutely love DCR! We have been going there for 3yrs, and every year just gets better. Maggie, and Jerry have to be two of the most giving people. Always there to lend a hand when needed, and believe me we need alot of hands! Location is the bomb, and the lake goes without saying. Cabins are loaded with everything you need, besides towels and food. Always clean! Thank you for another great vacation!!! Mary Simaytis
