About The Community
Tremont, Maine occupies the southwest corner of Mount Desert Island - a quietly beautiful and authentically working coastal town that offers a very different experience from the busy streets of Bar Harbor. Encompassing the villages of Bass Harbor, Bernard, Seal Cove, and McKinley, Tremont is a community rooted in lobster fishing and a deep connection to the sea, all while sharing the island's extraordinary natural heritage including Acadia National Park and the iconic Bass Harbor Head Lighthouse.

Community Details
Tremont is where Mount Desert Island feels most like itself - a place of working wharves, weathered boats, and the unhurried pace of a genuine Maine fishing village. Bass Harbor serves as the island's gateway to Swans Island via the Maine State Ferry, while Bernard's picturesque working waterfront has long been a draw for artists and photographers. With Acadia's western trails and quiet carriage roads nearby, and the dramatic Bass Harbor Head Lighthouse just minutes away, Tremont offers outstanding natural access without the summer crowds found elsewhere on the island. For buyers seeking the full Maine coast experience - solitude, community, history, and remarkable scenery - Tremont is a compelling and often overlooked choice.
