Free Boats • Sleeps 8 • 3 Lake Chain • Steps to Water

Free boats. Three lake chain + river. = Vacation Ready.
Enjoy 100 ft of private shoreline just 50 feet from the deck—an easy walk to the water (no stairs). This modern lake home is designed for families and groups, with space to relax after a day on the lake. Think sunrise paddles, lazy afternoons on the water, and quiet evenings by a lakeside campfire. Cuyuna Country State Recreation Area is just 25 minutes away. New listing with prime summer dates still available.

New Listing: Available Year Round, Modern Diamond Lakefront Lake Home with gently sloping lot to the 100 feet of private Shoreline!
3 BR • 1.5 BA • Sleeps 8 • Private Dock • 3-Lake Chain Access,
♥ Save this listing to your favorites to track availability!

Free Adventure Fleet (the boats) : Explore the 3-lake chain (Diamond, Ripple, Hanging Kettle) and the Ripple River with our included 3 kayaks, canoe, and 4-person paddle boat. You can use ours for FREE eliminating expensive rental fees. Unmatched value for a premium chain-of-lakes experience.

Modern Amenities: This isn't "grandpa's cabin." Enjoy central A/C and heat, high-speed Wi-Fi, and Smart TVs in every single bedroom.

Family Ready: We’ve done the heavy lifting for parents—Pack-n-Play, highchair, toddler dishes, and lawn games are all provided.

Ultimate Location: Only 10 mins to Aitkin and 25 mins to the world-famous Cuyuna Mountain Bike Trails.

Year-Round Comfort & Features:
The Kitchen: Fully stocked. Just bring your groceries!

The Waterfront: Private dock (seasonal), lakeside fire pit for s'mores, and a covered deck for sunset dinners.

The Location & Access: You are only 10 minutes from Aitkin but you will feel like you are in your own little world.

### Cuyuna MTB Trail Seekers: Perfect home base for mountain bikers (Cuyuna ) about 25 minutes away. Spend your day on the world-class red dirt of Cuyuna (just a scenic 25-minute drive away) and reward yourself with evenings on the water and grilling by the lake. The best of both worlds. We have a shed you can lock your bikes and gear in if you wish. Grab a hose and wash the red dirt off your bike and be ready for the next adventure.

### Families: vacation here because this cabin eliminates the "logistical stress" that often ruins a lake trip. Usually, lakefront properties involve steep hills or dozens of stairs that make supervising children or hauling gear a chore. Here, the flat / gently sloping lot means kids can safely run from the back door to the water in seconds while you watch from the covered deck. We have 100 feet of private lakeshore for you to enjoy. Don't forget, we also include beach towels, one less thing you need to pack.

With a private fleet of kayaks, a canoe, and a paddle boat included for free, your family has instant, private access to a three-lake chain without the crowds of a resort. Inside, the "home-away-from-home" setup—featuring a fully stocked kitchen, in-unit laundry, and dedicated kid gear like a Pack-n-Play and highchair—means you can pack light and actually relax. Whether it's summer swimming or winter snowmobiling, this is where you stop managing the vacation and start enjoying it.

### Anglers: Direct access to a 3-lake chain known for incredible fishing. Boaters: Bringing your own boat? Launch at Hanging Kettle Public Access, and enjoy a scenic 5–10-minute cruise to reach your private dock on Diamond Lake. Dock is normally put in for the season late April & taken out for the season in mid-October depending on weather.
