LICA Properties & Trusts

We are proud to own and maintain remarkable properties on the island.

Scroll down for further details!

Fowler's Beach

Fowler's Beach is located on the west end of the island, and is a popular beach for known for its calm waves, shallow water, and soft white sands. At low tide, a large tidal pool is carved out in the rocks where children scavenge for shells, baby lobsters, and other native marine life. The beach faces Casco Bay, providing constant viewing of the ferry steaming down the bay, lobster boats chugging along from trap to trap, and fleets of kayakers paddling these beautiful waters.

 

LICA has also made a commitment to the people of Long Island, and the Oceanside Conservation Trust to enforce a set of rules to maintain and preserve Fowler's Beach for the enjoyment of future generations. ​​​

Campfires at Fowler's Beach require prior approval from a member of the LICA. This permission must be presented to the Long Island Fire Department before a fire permit can be issued. This ensures that there is a designated individual responsible for safety and clean-up. For detailed campfire rules and the application process, please refer to the provided link.

Fireworks are NOT allowed on Fowler's Beach per Town ordinance.

The Conservation Area

Locally referred to as "The Area," this 125 acre parcel of land is centrally located on the island, and was designated a conservation area  in 1995. The Area is largely undisturbed natural deciduous and conifer forest, and contains a cranberry bog, beavers, and a large fresh water pond. Dirt and gravel trails exist for visitors and locals to walk, bike or ski through The Area and enjoy its pristine woodland beauty. No motorized vehicles, including golf carts, are allowed. 

 

The Conservation Area is owned by the Long Island Community Land Operating Corporation, LLC (LICLOC). The Civic Association, as the easement holder, has the right to inspect the land to make sure that the Conservation Restrictions are being met and to enforce them as appropriate.

The Community Garden

The Long Island Community Garden was established in XXXX. There are 10 raised beds that grow rows of lettuce, tomatoes, carrots, herbs, rhubarb, squashes and zucchinis for harvest. These fruits and vegetables are enjoyed by local families throughout the growing season, and by the entire community at the annual Harvest Dinner and other community events.
