Reviews
"My wife and son and I had a lot of fun here! Great view of the bay out to the ocean and nearby islands, boats, docks, birds. Beautiful on a 78 degree day with no wind. This Fort Baldwin is a bit of a hike, but there are at least 5 forts that we saw. Two were not accessible and a lot of random ceiling pieces were missing so beware of that. Really cool interesting and a little bit creepy historic site."
"Nice to see but it isn’t as breathtaking as Fort Popham. There’s a short 500ft or so hike that is necessary to reach the main tower."
"Interesting forts with views of the bay. You can go beyond the tower for a beautiful hike through the woods."
"An amazing, well preserved historical site in Phippsburg, ME looking over Fort Popham. Be alerted, there are areas within these three artillery batteries that contain ledges that are not fenced off, so carefully guide any children and pets. Otherwise an amazing site to spend a portion of the day."
