About Somerset

Somerset is a waterfront community on the western shore of the Taunton River and Mount Hope Bay, with a small-town Main Street feel and sweeping water views toward Fall River and Aquidneck Island. Pierce Beach Park and the Village Waterfront Park are local institutions for boating and picnicking, and the offshore Borden Flats Lighthouse is a beloved landmark.
