Diamond Cove was built at the turn of the last century as a military stronghold, then called Fort McKinley. Today, the weathered brick buildings have been carefully restored as gorgeous private homes. And with no automobiles at Diamond Cove, we enjoy the peace and tranquility of island living, and the beauty of a bygone era.

The Parade Ground Home has a fully-equipped kitchen (including dishwasher, microwave, washer and dryer, and everything you need for a lobster feast), a large living room and dining room, and a half bath on the first floor. On the second floor, the master bedroom has a full bath with Jacuzzi. Two other bedrooms share another full bathroom. This home has two large porches, one on each floor, and comes equipped with outdoor furniture and a gas grill.

Very conveniently located right on the Parade Ground, close to the heated Olympic-size pool, five private beaches, the tennis courts, and the gourmet restaurant.

Frequent and convenient ferry service to Portland, and all the attractions and amenities of Maine's charming largest city.
