A unique landmark created from a traveling glacier, the Desert of Maine includes camping, tours of the desert, gem hunts in the sand, a butterfly interaction room, and a pool for cooling off by. This is a definite must-see during your stay in Freeport. A taxi or some kind of transportation is needed due to its location.

Massive playground, gemstone hunting ground and historical / geographical point of interest. This natural phenomenon is a 40-acre area of glacial silt surrounded by vegetation. It is not a true desert and it receives plenty of rainfall. It has developed as a tourist attraction, offering tours with a guide and a barn museum. Kids can hunt their own gemstones for an extra charge; a great souvenir of your visit if you are successful.

Cool and unusual landmark in Maine. Recent addition of miniature golf and snack shack complete the afternoon fun. All a short ride from Portland up 295N into Freeport where the outlets shops, breweries and LLBEAN headquarters where there are outdoor concerts and other events.

How does an agricultural disaster result in glacial sand taking over acres of pine forest? Learn the history of the Tuttle Farm turned Desert of Maine, take a desert safari, or just play mini golf. There's education and entertainment for the whole family.
