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. ## Property amenities ### Parking and transport - Car required ### Kitchen - Hob - Refrigerator ### Bedrooms - Bedroom ### Bathroom - 1 bathroom - Shower - Toilet paper ### Entertainment - Books - Games ### Outdoor areas - Barbecue grill ### Pets - No pets allowed ### Suitability/Accessibility - Smoke-free property ### Location highlights - On a lake - On the waterfront ### Things to do - Kayak - Golfing nearby - Jet skiing nearby - Swimming nearby - Water skiing nearby - Windsurfing nearby ### Safety features - Carbon monoxide detector not reported (host has not indicated whether there is a carbon monoxide detector on the property; consider bringing a portable detector) - Smoke detector not reported (host has not indicated whether there is a smoke detector on the property) ## Similar properties ![Property grounds](https://images.trvl-media.com/lodging/58000000/57700000/57698800/57698782/129d87e2.jpg?impolicy=fcrop&w=469&h=201&p=1&q=medium) ### Cozy Cottage on water's edge of Lake Cobbosseecontee Manchester - Kitchen - Air conditioning - Outdoor space - Parking available 8.8 Excellent 15 reviews £239 includes taxes & fees 28 Sept - 29 Sept [](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Hotel-Search?startDate=2025-09-28&endDate=2025-09-29&selected=57698782&PinnedHotelID=57698782&HadPinnedHotel=true®ionId=-1&adults=2) ![Fridge, microwave, oven, stovetop](https://images.trvl-media.com/lodging/28000000/27060000/27051200/27051125/5e1f60d3.jpg?impolicy=fcrop&w=469&h=201&p=1&q=medium) ### Discover your retreat - 3-bedroom cottage in Winthrop Winthrop - Kitchen - Washer - Dryer - Air conditioning 10 Exceptional 173 reviews [](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Hotel-Search?startDate=2025-10-09&endDate=2025-10-10&selected=27051125&PinnedHotelID=27051125&HadPinnedHotel=true®ionId=-1&adults=2) ![Terrace/patio](https://images.trvl-media.com/lodging/95000000/94700000/94692500/94692407/b445f451.jpg?impolicy=fcrop&w=469&h=201&p=1&q=medium) ### Get in touch with nature.
