We loved our stay, cozy cottage, found all we needed, good for 1-2 people. Location was good, we had short walk/ drive to local supermarket, trails, beach. All places we love in New Harbor were close, so we enjoyed our stay. Bill met us the day we arrive and Susan some other day checked on us- thank you! Easy to follow directions and check in. The book they prepared had all necessary information even if someone is visiting Maine first time. Special treat- comfortable bed- not always we’re lucky with that. Kitchen had all we needed.

Wonderful Coastal Cottage!

My wife and I had a wonderful experience in Maine with family and friends and a large part was due to the cottage and hospitality of our hosts and cottage owners Sue and Bill! It is in a great location and convenient to many things. The cottage is very clean and well maintained. We will definitely be repeat visitors!

Very nice little cottage by beach. The hosts were very accommodating and very pleasant. They were not aware of our reservations through VRBO for some reason, but were quick to get the cottage ready for us and make sure we had everything we needed.

Snowball Hill Road

We had a delightful 3 night stay at the cottage. Bill was a breath of fresh air after a 10 hour drive from NJ. We came for a wedding and also the nearby hikes and beauty of the area.

Perfect for couples!

Bill and Sue’s property was perfect for what we needed. We were in town to visit our daughter and her husband in Bristol Maine. The cottage was a perfect home base to get some rest and to sleep at night. The cottage is clean and has everything you need for a comfortable stay!

Lovely cottage, nice location

Snowball Hill Cottage is charming - it looks just like it pictures. Plus a lot of nice little touches - outdoor swing and glider, nice selection of teas and coffee, etc. Very nice location on the Pemaquid Peninsula - near rocky coast, sand beach, light house, river for canoeing, hiking, and lots of art galleries. Bill and Sue were excellent hosts - easy to reach and happy to answer any questions.

Sweet simple cottage

Lovely rustic cottage that is clean, quiet and quaint. Tastefully decorated with local antiques and pictures. Pleasant deck. Bathroom has been modernized. Kitchen has the basic amenities. King bed is comfortable. Great location near the beach and sites. No TV which was fine for us. We were the first Vrbo guests - owners very helpful and friendly.

Very nice little cottage

Great location. Wasn’t sure how to check in but found the door open and they stopped by about a half hour later to say hello. Really a cute and comfortable cottage. Could use a bit more cleaning. Mildew on the side of the fridge, dusty table tops, cobwebs in bathroom corner.

Very sweet couple, great location and very quiet, but we had some issues. I don't know if the cleaning person somehow overlooked it, but the kitchen had not been cleaned. The trash can had not been emptied. There were crumbs and spilled coffee on the counters and floors. We had to scrub out the 'fridge before putting our food in it. The whole place needed a good dusting. The WiFi was also very slow, and there is no wireless Verizon service, so we were a little dead in the water on internet.We waited to complain until we were leaving, and at that point, the hosts profusely apologized and said they would have been happy to come over and clean. It was obviously too late for us.I feel bad about having to write this review, but we felt we owed it to the Vrbo community. We rented in part because other reviews said it was so clean. If it was scrubbed down before arrival, it would have been a great place.Parking was super easy and convenient at the front door. The host even let me plug in my electric car to their standard outdoor outlet.

Cottage close to Pemaquid Beach

This is a sweet Maine cottage, basically a bed area and full kitchen. The Morton’s years as Innkeepers at Round Pond certainly come through. They have anticipated every possible thing one might need. The kitchen was very convenient, a Keurig and a small coffee maker, utensils, pots and pans.I brought my own coffee. There is a nice tea selection. Bill Morton’s pretty gardens are a nice addition. The cottage is very clean and there is a very nice new bathroom with large shower. I liked the big fluffy towels. I enjoyed my stay here.
