Welcome to Lake Diane! This private home is cozy and comfortable, ready for your family no matter the weather. In the summer this is your lakefront retreat. Large floating raft and dock make for a private swimming paradise. Watch the boats cruise by or bring your own and enjoy the water with friends and family. In the evening, gather for a dinner on the upper or lower deck using the provided propane grill on the upper deck.

This property was a great place for our family, 6 adults and 2 young children, to spend a relaxing week. The house had plenty of room for everyone to have their own space. It was very neat and clean. The kids loved swimming right out front and playing on the float and swim platform. We ate most of our meals out on the deck overlooking the lake. It was a delightful vacation!
Very nice place to stay. Loved the patio below the deck that was our hangout. Kids loved swimming. Host was easy to communicate with. We’ll equipped kitchen. Beds were comfortable.

Becky, Thank you for the nice review. We work very hard to make it a welcoming, relaxing home away from home for our guests. Would love to have you rent again.
The house was very nice, lots of room for eight of us to move around in. Lake is lovely, dive platform in water as well as lily pad to play on. Owners supplied everything we needed to enjoy the week. You have to search a little for activities is you want to leave lake, but there are things to do. Area is quiet, especially at night. Whole family wants to go back in 2026.
Beautiful property, plenty to do, fish, swim, cornhole, fire pit and games. We all had a great time and think this has been our best rental so far. 5 stars!
Our family of 8 adults and 6 children- (14-1) had a great time here! Everyone did not spend the entire week, but with sofa beds, there would have been plenty of room for all. The beach is great with the cove being shallow enough for the little ones! The home is very pretty and had all we needed! Sandi was great to work with and very helpful!
Though temp's out side were in the 90s the AC worked great, dock Easley accommodated my 19' boat. Some weeds in the area, but that didn't stop the kids from swimming. House was fine for our group of 10.
We stayed for 4 days and loved our stay! The house is beautiful, spacious, and had plenty of amenities. The lake views are absolutely gorgeous! It was such a relaxing environment and very clean! Sandi, was always prompt and quick to meet any of our needs. We enjoyed our time and would highly recommend this home to rent! We would book this place again in the future! Thanks for sharing your beautiful home and lake views with us!
This property is absolutely awesome. Two complete levels of living area make it perfect for larger groups. Elevated deck with power awning provides a perfect place to hang out in the sun or shade. Below the deck, is another outside gathering space sheltered from the sun. Lots of bedrooms and a great bar area in the lower level. Our only choice going forward when we return to Lake Diane.
The house and property were very clean, very well kept, plenty of room and bedrooms, comfortable and relaxing with multiple nice outdoor spaces to enjoy great views of the lake (the property goes right to the lake with its own dock). We had a fantastic time and have a nice gathering of friends one evening and we were able to spread out and enjoy the walk out patio and upper balcony and nice lake weather. The owner provided very nice welcome gifts and was very communicative and ensured we had everything we needed. We hope to rent again next time.

Robert, I'm so glad you enjoyed it. We would love to have you rent again.
Our family of 12 stayed here for a week and it accommodated us with plenty of room to spare.
Our 12 year old granddaughter loved the Harry Potter Room. We had Beautiful weather. The house actually has 2 living areas. Our 6 grandchildren loved being downstairs with a separate space to enjoy a movie before bed. The lake was perfect for all the grandchildren, no one wanted to leave! We would definitely stay here again, the host has thought of everything, the kitchen was fully stocked, we used the outdoor grill and they even had a smoker,. Loved the balcony view with the retractable awning upstairs and the shaded living area downstairs.
This property is an absolute gem! Perfect for a large group of people! It was great to have a kitchenette down stairs as well as the upstairs kitchen. Comes with everything you need. Just pack your swimsuits and start enjoying beautiful Lake Diane. I cannot say enough about how easy the hosts were to contact and how friendly they are. I really appreciated the ease of the whole process. We stayed on the weekend of the fireworks and enjoyed being so close to the show. Definitely a 10 out of 10. Thanks for helping us create memories to last a lifetime.
This property is outstanding! It was very clean, and beds were comfortable. Kitchen is very well set up with everything you need. The extra downstairs and garage refrigerators were a great convenience. The upper and lower deck areas were great for outside comfort. The dock, swim platform and large raft made it great for swimming, relaxing and entertaining the children. The fishing off the dock was good to for small crappie and sunfish/bluegill. My 6-year-old grandson even caught a large catfish that he still hasn't stopped talking about! The fire pit and chairs were great for campfires and smores! If you want a great vacation property look no further!

Scott and his family were great. Good communication and left the house in very good condition. Hope he rents again
We take a family vacation every year with eight adults and four children. This home was perfect with the two living rooms, five bedrooms, a patio and a deck, we had so much room to stretch out! The kitchen had all the appliances and dishes we would need. Lots of silverware, Dishes, glasses baking dishes, pots & pans! Sandi responded immediately when we had questions. The neighborhood was quiet, the yard was large, and the fire pit was a great touch for relaxing after the kids went to bed! Oh, and the beds were very comfortable! That really made everyone so happy! Two full-size refrigerators, one up and one down or also a welcome addition to this beautiful home!

About the host
Hosted by Sandi McKolay
We grew up enjoying family times on a lake in nearby Coldwater. We found Lake Diane and fell in love. We purchased this home in 2020 with plans to share with family and friends. We have enjoyed it so much that we have only rented to people we know so far. We hope you love it as much as we do!
Why they chose this property
Our little area of the lake is quieter than most. Morning is reserved for fishing and "no wake" making it especially peaceful early in the day. After 11:00 am, all sports Lake Diane is ready for power boats and water skiers.
What makes this property unique
Beautiful views, numerous gathering locations, and all the comforts of home make this the perfect family or friend vacation location. Cove provides added privacy and safety when swimming.
These review quotes are from people we rented to before we joined VRBO:
I loved the property! The lake and neighborhood are nice and quiet. The house is beautiful and spacious both inside and outside. The upper and lower patios were awesome areas to sit back and enjoy conversation with the large group we had when I was there. It feels so cozy and comfortable. It's like being home but better! - Laura
"We loved everything about our stay here! The house was very comfortable for the large group of people we had there and the back porch and lower deck were so fun to hang out on in the evenings. We would definitely stay here again!" -Kate and Bryce
