We've got more stars than the night sky in Maine
It’s a place unlike any other in Maine... an ecological oddity that’s been a tourist attraction for a century.
The Desert of Maine is a must visit spot.
Mike, Google review
Visiting this amazing place is a summer staple for us. Wouldn’t miss the gala for the world.

I wish we’d spent more time here. We’ll definitely be back to explore the dunes and the farmhouse.

Clint Harp, award-winning carpenter, HGTV hit show Fixer Upper alum, and host of Restoration Road, heads to the Desert of Maine. He takes on a challenge: to transport, rebuild and assemble our 18th century New England Cape Cod house as a historical museum.
“It’s a place unlike any other in Maine,” reports NBC’s News Center Maine. “Acres of fine sand stretches out into the distance, complete with sand dunes, looking much like, well, a miniature desert. Welcome to the Desert of Maine, an ecological oddity that’s been a tourist attraction for a century.”
Our re-opening made a splash in the local papers. The Press Herald got an exclusive: how we launched The Desert of Maine, reopening with new attractions and a focus on sciences. They also chronicle the unveiling of our nonprofit to promote arts and sciences.
