Tour Information

A busy river town with a population of 650 during the 1880s, Marine is now a community whose residents treasure the atmosphere of a friendly small town and county life with the advantages of being near a metropolitan area. In 1964, a group of residents established the Restoration Society to preserve the unique quality of this historical riverside town as it enjoys new growth and the advantages of both city and country living.

The walking tour is divided into four easy walks for you to enjoy:

  • Village Center
  • Historic Judd Street
  • North Village
  • Upper Village

Please remember that many of these points of interest are private homes and are to be enjoyed from the roadway, sidewalk, or pathway.
