Durant l'été de 1778 James Cook cherchait un passage au nord-ouest du golfe de Cook, à proximité d'Homer. Les premiers habitants arrivèrent en 1800, et Diamond Ridge fut mentionné pour la première fois en 1950. Son nom provient de l'arête montagneuse voisine qui fait 1 100 pieds (335 m) de haut et 5 milles (8 km) de long.
La majorité des habitants travaillent à Homer.
