We camped above an underground yellow jacket hive and the forest rangers did not believe us. We left a day early and let them know so they could handle it and the entire conversation they were very belittling and were trying to tell us that it was nesting flies. I informed the lady it was yellow jackets and I was sure of it. The first morning when we saw the mounds in the ground, I asked them what it could be and they said they would go check it out. The next day we woke up and all the mounds were back and we actively saw dozens of yellow jackets flying in and out of the tunnels. I didn’t ask for a refund, I merely wanted to tell them so they could do something about it.
I love diamond lake and have been camping here my whole life. I was disappointed in their lack of concern for a potential safety issue. I understand we are in the forest and there are bugs everywhere, but camping above a massive hive of yellow jackets seems like a more serious matter than just some bugs.
I could bet money that if they dig up our site, they would find a very substantial hive. I had never seen anything like it but after studying it that second morning and seeing them digging and flying around, I had 100% certainty. Anyway, I hope someone has done something about it.
Also the restrooms had zero toilet paper in several of them.

Beautiful spot, great views of the lake and mountain. Generous size spots, well paved road. Bathrooms were clean, showers hot. Only reco is firewood for sale near the spots, I could have missed it.

Diamond Lake is a beautiful and clean body of water for a wide range of activities. The lodge at the north end (about 2 miles north of campground), rents pontoon boats and other small watercraft and has a small store and restaurant. There is a great bike loop around the lake that involves only a very small amount of biking on the road. When I have been there, the water is clean and fresh and great for myself and my young daughters for swimming. Diamond Lake campground is very well kept. For example, the showers are very clean and nice. Fire pits seemed brand new this year. The Camp Host is one of the best! They are very friendly and set up a WiFi area and have a log splitting area. Finally, if you can get them, the lake front spots are amazing. For many of them, you just walk down from your tent or trailer and get into the water in your bathing suit, kayak or SUP! Amazing views of Mount Bailey complete the scene. Some of the best camping in OR for sure!

Camping at Diamond Lake is always a great experience. We love the large lake view sites and abundant firewood. Fishing with our own boat is another plus. The showers are great and we wouldn’t camp there without them.
