Our Story

A family ranch that became an Alaska basecamp.

Diamond M's story is rooted in the Martin family's move to Alaska, years of ranching on the Kenai Peninsula and a simple idea that started with fishermen looking for a place to park.

Blair and Ronna Martin

Meet the Martins

Hospitality shaped by life on the Peninsula.

Diamond M's current history describes Blair and Ronna Martin as second-generation Alaskans who raised their family on the farm and continued a multi-generation tradition of hospitality, agriculture and tourism.

History + legacy

How Diamond M grew.

1963

Carrol and JoAnne Martin come to Alaska.

1975

The family settles on the Kenai Peninsula.

They raise cattle and horses and expand the farm.

Later

Fishermen begin asking to park RVs on the property.

That demand helps spark the idea of building an RV park and resort.

Today

Diamond M welcomes travelers from around the world.

The resort combines RV camping, lodging, guest activities and a working-ranch story.

Four generations

A family story that is still visible in the property.

The resort connects its history to Matti's Farm, agricultural education and continued investment in the local community.
