Great Diamond Island is an island in Casco Bay, Maine. It is part of the city of Portland, Maine. As of the 2000 census, the island had a year-round population of 77. The island is not easily accessible by motor vehicle, and has a limited network of roads. The primary modes of transportation are golf carts and bicycles. This fact has become a selling point for the island, marketing the area as "car free" and "kid friendly". [1] The island was used as a military base starting in the late 1800s and continuing through World War II. After the base was decommissioned, the bunkers and residences were left idle for over 30 years before being developed and sold to private citizens. Diamond Cove is a resort community, and ferry stop at the northeastern side of the island. The Diamond Cove properties are located on the grounds of the former Fort McKinley, making use of the army barracks and officer's quarters as renovated condominiums. The abandoned concrete coastal artillery batteries still exist in the woods at the east of the island, although they are technically private property and off-limits due to safety concerns. The community is gated, and for the most part not open to the general public, although the Diamond's Edge restaurant is open and located just off the Casco Bay ferry dock. Tours of the grounds, by reservation, are also available. A limited number of homes have also been built on the waterfront areas of the island, many of which have been featured in local magazines and newspapers. Featured Homes in Great Diamond Island, ME
