I've been renting cottages on Southport for years and have seen many, many cottages. Snowman Cottage has one of the best views and locations on the island. We put our kayaks in right from the rocks on the property and searched for sea glass at low tide. Having my morning tea on the deck looking out to the lighthouse was wonderful. The outside of the house needs some work, but the inside has everything you need - comfy beds, new couches, stocked kitchen, great water pressure and hot water in the shower, laundry, etc.... Two families, seven people, ages 11-47 were quite comfortable. It's a rustic, old Maine cottage for sure, however, if you want an affordable place on the water in Southport, you can't do much better than Snowman Cottage!
