The Homestead, Main St.

Campground office
|
Century Farm Family Campground
is located on the original grant of land issued to Mathias Moran in 1783.
The property has been in the Moran Family since that time.
The property presently consists of 100 acres of forest land and 25 acres
of agriculture land. The homestead was built in 1850 by James H. Moran
who hired many of the carpenters that worked at the ship building trade.
The ceilings were painted by artists from Italy brought over on the sailing
ships that were built in the shipyards located near the beach adjacent
to the campground. Over 500 sailing ships were built in this area
in the 1800's.
Additional information on our historic past is available at the Quaco
Museum. Just a walk away from our campground.
