Named for former Maine governor, Edward Kent; the 3-acre site's main feature is a wooden blockhouse made of hand-hewn timber. The fort, built in 1839, was used to to help secure Maine's claim to northern forests following the Aroostook War.
Located at the confluence of the St. John and Fish rivers, the site is adjacent to picnic facilities and campsites managed by a local Boy Scout troop. Open daily until dusk, Memorial Day-Labor Day.
