Fort Edgecomb State Historic Site

Watch boats motor by, catch a glimpse of playful harbor seals, or see nearby nesting osprey take flight as you enjoy a picnic on the waterfront at Fort Edgecomb State Historic Site. Located on Davis Island in the Sheepscott River, Fort Edgecomb traces its origins to the early 19th century. Interpretive panels unfold the events surrounding the Fort's history when hostilities in Europe dictated construction of forts to protect local residents.

We love the Squire Tarbox Inn! We have stayed there three times over the past couple years, in three different rooms in two different buildings, twice with just my husband and me, once with our two teenagers. It’s in a beautiful location, quiet and peaceful, with gorgeous views of the land. The rooms are very comfortable with good quality beds, pillows, and linens, nice bathrooms, and charming period details throughout. Breakfast is lovely!
