What a treasure you have created in Searsport, Maine! We had a grand time and will definitely be back!

 

— Judith G.

Wow! This was an exceptional experience and so much more than we anticipated.

 

— Dale W.

A very cool museum with tons of interesting local history and information. The docents were excellent — well-informed and good story-tellers. There are many interactive exhibits for kids of all ages. Highly recommend.
