So beautiful and well kept. Accessible, quiet, and a lovely nature retreat in these times. The gardens in the summer time are noteworthy!

Pretty cool place. Walked from Vaugn woods over to Hamilton House. Great view of the river. Museum was closed when we were there but will go back next season. Beautiful fields . Great place for photography.

Beautiful place. Quiet, not crowded. So peaceful. Wonderful trails.

What an absolute wonderful place with beautiful stunning sites of New England history. It is very dog friendly and you will get a great hiking experience if you decide to venture into Vaughn Woods.

I haven’t been here in season yet, it hasn’t opened for tours, so I will update this review once it does! But for the winter, this is a beautiful place to come and explore for a dog walk or to take a little picnic and enjoy the view. The water is beautiful and serene, and it’s a nice flat walk through the fields that’s great for kids.

The grounds this year arent as well trimmed or groomed as in the past but due to the pandemic I guess it can be excused. Beautiful location at the bend of a tidal river, overlooking the waterway from the loft of a rise. Picturesque setting. Paths through the woods are nice and cool a great place for a strolling couple or a family picnic even on the hottest days. Dogs on leash are permitted.

Grounds are beautiful. Great place to walk, and i imagine great for photos,

A very nice place for a walk. I havent actually toured the inside of the house, though that looks interesting. The grounds are free to walk around. Theres a fee for the house tour. Nice gardens. Nice views along the river. There are connecting paths to the Vaughn Woods paths. Parking was free (the Vaughn Woods park requests a fee/donation if you park on that side).

Ive yet to visit for a tour, but you can kayak up close to it. Great view.

One of the idyllic places - old house on the bank of the river with well maintained flower gardens. Just sit in the grass, have a picnic and enjoy the marvelous views or take a walk in neer by Vaughan woods State Park. You can take a tour of of the house, ticket are available inside garden house.

I always feel so safe here. This place is absolutely reverent. I would love to do a walkthrough and know more about the Goodwin family who are at the top of the hill. Thanks! -Sarah, South Berwick

Awesome place to hike to. Beautiful gardens, house, and pond off the river. Great hiking trails for whole family-friendly

We took senor photos here and it was amazing, the view is great and the wildlife is everywhere.We even saw five deer.

They have outdoor concerts in the summer, can wander through the gardens before the music. We got there early so that we were able to find a spot in the shade as it was a fairly warm day.

Scenic and easy to get to from Vaughan Woods.

A moderate easy trail for the whole family. Its really beautiful!

So glad we visited. Hate to give it a good rating cause I dont want it to get crowded

Just a great place for a short beautiful walk.

It is a beautiful scenic spot in South Berwick. Youll feel you are in a Jane Austen novel waking the grounds

Nice quiet park to visit with the family. Well landscaped and great trails along the river

Quaint home with a lovely garden and view of the river

Beautiful, peaceful place to hang out and have a picnic,read a book or just walk around and admire.

The place is lovely to look at but I never see staff and I should look into how I can see inside the house. Is it haunted?

The perfect place for a walk, a picnic lunch, for photos, to explore, and learn about our local history. An array of geocaching to be done there as well.

Pretty amazing location. They sure knew how to do things in the ol days. Looking forward to exploring more and checking out some trails in the spring.

Beautiful Views. Peaceful walk

Youll love the scenic trails and how the wildlife is just as beautiful as the Hamilton House

From viewpoint on Vaughan trail

Beautiful grounds; lovely place for a wedding or to take in a concert.

Beautiful historic site

One of my all time favorite views - looking out across the Salmon Falls River from the back of the house. The essence of peaceful. And the manicured gardens are delightful as well! Theyve recently rebuilt a traditional stone wall that is just perfect. And the fact that you can walk to Vaughn Woods is quite the bonus!

Wow, hamilton was so popular, they named a house after it!

Beautiful right now in the summer with all the gardens full of so many different flowers!

Beautiful. Great place for a picnic.

The house was beautiful. Gardens superb. Excellent place to visit fit a few hours and pet friendly bring your own waste bags.

Its really nice to walk around here with the family, nice mowed paths in the field, also next to Vaughn Woods.

Family and dog friendly place! Beautiful scenery.

This fantastic interesting historical house and garden is a wonderful Georgian example.

Attended a wedding here and the grounds were beautiful! Lovely views out over the water and well tended garden made for an elegant location. One draw-back to our visit was the wet ground which left all of us with muddy shoes!

Beautiful. Dog friendly if they are on a leash, good combo of woods and fields and right along the river. Lots of people do photoshoots here

Very pretty

Very good guide. Nice garden and great history of the house.

Beautiful grounds with tours of the estate. Trails are very scenic, and it is close to Vaughn Woods State Park

Beautiful place

Well worth a visit, beautiful grounds/ gardens and the house tour was outstanding.

Eerie and historic, nice views and trails

Best place for my wife and I to marry. Absolutely beautiful place.

Gorgeous Historic piece of property! My favorite place to go and walk around or even have a picnic. My daughter loves going here!

Well preserved piece of architectural and local history overlooking a prissteen river.

We visited during the summer to see a concert on the lawn. The gardens are beautiful, the music was fun, and the house is a beautiful piece of history!

Beautiful place to walk around and enjoy the day!

Very cool place

The tour was very interesting.

Looks nice. So day I will plan better an go up when they are open

Absolutely outstanding place to visit. Wonderful grounds to walk around. Beautiful garden, incredible views of salmon falls and an excellent walk around Vaughn woods. If youre looking for a quiet nature walk, visit.

I love this place. I wish the actual house was open for tours or even an unguided walk-through. The little guest house and garden is so cute.

Very cool place on the river. Very close to Vaughn woods to hike.

A walk back in time. Beautiful setting.

We love the gardens and the paths

Very beutiful and historic house and has a great garden and walking trails and the best time to visit is in spring or summer there garden is awesome and the lake behind the house is beutiful

Quiet and serene. Free parking and admission to the grounds. Bathrooms, paid tours inside the house. Flower gardens and river views.

Didnt get to go on the house tour but walked around the gardens, its beautiful! I would love to come back again!

Hamilton House is my favorite historic house. The grounds are beautiful and so is the house.

I walk my dogs in the field behind the Hamilton House 3-5x a week. Its a beautiful setting and a beautiful property. If you get a chance and youre driving by, you should take an afternoon to throw a picnic here.

Very pretty gardens

Best historic place in Maine

My wife and I enjoyed really enjoyed our cisit

Check out this hidden gem. Beautiful year round, but especially when the garden is in full bloom.
