dc.description | Harbor area with pier and small boats at dock; ferry terminal beyond; Settled in the 1760s, North Haven (Maine) was originally the North Island of Vinalhaven, from which it was set off and incorporated on June 30, 1846 as Fox Isle. It was changed to North Haven on July 13, 1847. The town is both a year-round island community and a prominent summer colony. The population was 381 at the 2000 census. North Haven is accessed by three-times daily ferry service from Rockland. In the 1880s, the island was discovered by "rusticators," seasonal residents first from Boston, then followed a decade or two later by others from New York and Philadelphia. North Haven is best known today for its sizable summer colony of prominent Northeasterners, particularly Boston Brahmins, drawn to the island for over a century to savor its simple way of life.
