Compass Harbor and the Old Farm ruins
The foundations of the house where the park's founder died.
George Dorr lived at Old Farm until his death in 1944. The house is gone; its foundations, a herringbone brick terrace, and the cove where he swam every morning remain on an easy loop from the Loop Road. The park offers a video tour.
