Great Diamond Island House Summary

Experience life on an island off the coast of Maine . . .beaches and bell buoys . . . swimming and tennis . . . an island without cars or cares. Relax. A unique experience for either a family or couple. Great Diamond Island, in Casco Bay, is a two mile ferry ride from Portland. The Ferry service runs frequently enough to spend the day on the island, and then to be able to leave for a night out of dinner and activities within downtown Portland and still return that night to the island. Explore miles of walking trails through the island’s silent old growth forest and along the water’s edge - you may encounter our elusive moose, a family of wandering deer, herons and osprey, perhaps a few seals. Cars are not allowed on most of the island therefore you have an environment where families, kids play freely all over the island. This is an amazing place to vacation. You will feel miles away, but still close enough to a big city

Great Diamond Island, a 20-minute ride from Portland on a Casco Bay Lines ferry, was once a military installation and is now known for its summer homes, beaches, and the community of fine homes at Diamond Cove. At Diamond's Edge Restaurant you can dine at the water's edge, with beautiful views of Diamond Cove. The island has a general store (207-766-3087) which sells pizza, sandwiches and ice cream, and also has public restrooms. The Casco Bay Lines departure point is located at the corner of Commercial Street and Franklin Arterial, Exit 7 off I-295 in downtown Portland.
