Nature lovers Paradise your own island

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 the capital city of Augusta you are close to restaurants and shopping but in a setting that is private and close to nature.

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. Many refer to it as "glamping", glamorous camping. We provide a canoe, life vests and paddles. Its a short 5 minute paddle from the shore where you park your car. Please note we do not have a cleaning service and everyone is expected to clean before departure.
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 woodpecker and more.

The best place
I have visited this idyllic spot about 10-12 times, and each time I am reminded of why I love it so much: the feeling of isolation on your own private island, the company of the cheerful small birds, the magnificent osprey family in the tallest tree (their nest is a few feet from the cabin), the view down the lake from the porch and living area, the curtain of trees surrounding the cabin, the warm water for swimming, the calm quiet at night, and the parade of ducks and loons nearby. And I confess to the sense of independence (pride?) that I can go without electricity and running water for a few days! I also like the new canoe - sturdy and stable. For first timers, the guest's guide tells you everything you need to know and bring. I did bring a fully-charged USB battery pack to recharge my phone, but never needed it - or called anybody or checked my emails. I did not WANT to! This place is perfect for setting yourself free for a few days.

Beautiful lake but the cabin wasn't as described
The lake was beautiful, but the cabin was a disappointment. What was described as a remote getaway turned out to be a rundown place in the center of very busy motorized boats that passed by day and night. The guests are expected to clean for the next guests, which never happened to us. The cabin had to be thoroughly cleaned, the compose toilet was even worse. When we tried to communicate this to the owner, there was no response; the only communication I received was a list of what should be cleaned for the next guest; we left a list of how we not only cleaned but serviced the toilet and raked and cleaned the outside. Still no response from the owner, not even a "thank you," very disappointing. Nothing worked, including the grill, fireplace, and shower. We brought our own, but this wasn't communicated either. Even the directions were faulty; construction was going on, so we had difficulty finding the dock, etc. This wasn't communicated before our arrival. Again, I am very disappointed.

A Great Escape
My sister and I enjoyed our 3 days on the island. It is exactly as described. The directions are great and communication was quick and very helpful. We experienced rain and hard winds but that only made our time more magical. Watching the osprey above and listening to the loons just added to the experience. There was plenty of cleaning supplies, directions, lighting, pans, and all the supplies needed besides bringing additonal propane, sheets, food and clothes. We did bring a lot of water but there was plenty of potable water already there. We ended up using the cooler available instead of the refrigerator. But the directions looked easy enough. The water was clean and refreshing. Swimming was so refreshing. We felt far away from it all yet it didn’t take us long to canoe over. Waking up without getting out of bed and seeing the sun rise on the water was something I will always look back on. We both commented that the queen size bed was extremely comfortable. We both slept great every night. The deck was the perfect spot to have your coffee while listening to the baby osprey getting their breakfast. My sister and I had a hard time leaving our own little paradise. We both recommend staying here.

Peaceful & Lovely - in need of TLC
The perfect place to unplug, recharge & relax! Falling asleep to the sound of the loons and the gentle waves of water restores the soul!!! The cabin is so cute and just the right size. The only disappointment was the gas fire pit still didn’t work (it didn’t work last year), the kitchen drain was completely blocked so it backed up into the sink and onto the floor and the screens are in need of repair so a lot of bugs get in. We were hoping to make this an annual stay …….

Unique and Wonderful Experience
It's not often that you get to paddle out to a little cottage on its own small island to stay for a couple days. This place was perfect for us to disconnect and relax. It was so very peaceful. We'll definitely be looking to come back here.

Perfect respite
The cabin is perfectly located, just a short canoe ride to total privacy. We especially enjoyed watching the 2 baby ospees with their mamma. We enjoyed the swimming off the deck and fishing from both the dock and canoe. Everything you could possibly want was provided. Looking forward to a return trip.

As advertised, your own island with great views and privacy
This is a total gem of a place. The island is so cool and quaint--it's a 2 minute canoe ride from the shore but once you're on the little island, you're definitely alone, except for the ospreys, humming birds, and all kinds of other flora and fauna! We took the canoe out a lot to watch the birds,and look at the other islands. We'd also run into town during the day to pick up fresh fish and veggies to cook at the house at night, plus all the fresh blueberries that grow on the island! Just a really special stay and a really special place. Also Deb, the host, was super communicative and very helpful. 10/10 recommendation. One note--I gave it a 4/5 on cleanliness simply because this IS camping to a large extent (nicer than true camping but short of "glamping"). The house is perfectly well-suited and keeps out the elements, but just understand that you're going into nature with no electricity or running water, so expect bugs and critters and the like. If that doesnt bother you, this is your place.

Amazing island cabin
As the tenants are responsble for cleaning you shouldn't expect this cabin to be as clean as your usual vacation home. Apart from this, the cabin and especially the location are picture perfect: it's cozy, private, quiet and the views are amazing. We enjoyed in particular swimming every day in the lake and also paddling with the canoe was great fun. We loved the ospreys nesting on the island and the blueberries.

Gorgeous location with amazing nature
Loved our two-day stay here - very romantic. As soon as we arrived we saw otters swimming around the island. The lake was like a giant swimming pool - shallow waters for long distances and mostly sandy bottom. It was a truly unique experience that we won't forget.

Neglected property
Pros: beautiful setting, osprey nest right off the back deck (incredible!), cute property, responsive owner. Cons: the best word to describe the property is neglected. It looks like the owner hasn't been there in a very long time. It was extremely dirty inside and out. Hit or miss trying to figure out what worked and what didn't. Full of clutter; e.g. we had to rearrange shed to be able to to get to the composting toilet. Stove doesn't work; fridge instructions incorrect. It could have been an amazing retreat, but we left feeling like we had been taken advantage of.

The perfect place to get away and unwind!
My husband and I rented this cabin for 3 days and absolutely loved it! We enjoyed early morning coffee on the deck, watching the sun rise over the lake.. and days filled with canoeing, swimming, fishing, birdwatching. The evenings were perfect for s’mores around the fire pit, while listening to the wildlife sing their songs (the loons were our favorite!). Such a peaceful little island, and the host has put so much thought into the amenities provided, you honestly almost forget that there’s no electricity or running water. We will definitely be returning!

Peaceful Labor Day Getaway
The island is beautiful - small (about the size of a residential plot) but so peaceful. The cabin is in the middle so you're surrounded by trees and have some privacy on the lake. The cabin itself is also lovely. The sitting room faces west so you get lovely sunsets while enjoying a cup of tea. My main gripe was we couldn't get the fridge to work. The instructions weren't helpful and the video was for a different model. We ended up storing stuff in the cooler and using a lot of ice. Fine for a couple of days, but not feasible if you're renting for longer. Great stay overall though. Deb was very responsive to all inquiries. Just one (important) thing to note: there's no cleaning crew, so if you're worried about Covid, carry wipes and wipe down surfaces as soon as you arrive.

We loved staying on this little island. We were able to disconnect from the world and connect with nature and each other. We loved listening to the loons and watching the antics of the ospreys that share this island. The canoe was great for exploring a gorgeous lake Was a perfect getaway.

Off-grid Paradise
My partner and I both LOVED Little Diamond. A beautiful cabin in the middle of a picturesque lake, with an incredible sunroom looking out across the water at the sunset. Some highlights: - A great mix of modern amenities and rustic charm. I didn't feel like I was staying at an Amish farm, but washing dishes in lake water and having just a couple lanterns after sundown also helped me leave my 2020 worries behind - The canoe is a big plus. You have to row out to the island, then you just have the canoe for your stay. There's a lot of other islands and wildlife to explore on the lake - Peace and quiet. We went towards the end of the season, and had very few human sightings. If you really want to get away, this is the place.
