Miscellaneous Info
Diamond Lake was named for John Diamond, for whom Diamond Peak is also named. He discovered the lake in 1852 while on the summit of Diamond Peak. Diamond was a pioneer settler of Coburg, Oregon who was part of a party that was opening a road between the Middle Fork Willamette River and Idaho as an immigration route. The post office of Diamond Lake, Oregon was established in 1925 and ran until 1956, when it was changed to a summer-only office.
