Review & Frequenly Asked Questions:
One of the state’s most unique tourist attractions, the Desert of Maine is a forty-acre natural phenomenon, an area of glacial silt that’s surrounded by vegetation. However, it’s not a “true desert” since it receives a good amount of rainfall. The area has become a popular attraction in the Freeport area, featuring a barn museum and offering guided tours. Children can look for gemstones in the sand or climb the natural playground. The Desert of Maine also provides camping facilities, as well as a disc golf course open from the beginning of May until the winter season.
