Renter Testimonials
A little pricey, but we had a brand-new sled to ourselves with an easy-to-use GPS! So much better than a crowded tour and way more fun than skiing!
From reservations with Patrick and the Fryeburg team very friendly and helpful. Sleds are brand new . Organized group!
Staff is very friendly and helpful. We had a problem with one of the machines. It came out right away and switched it for us. 4 or 5 years renting from them. Looking forward to using them again
Loved our NON-GUIDE rental! Excellent stuff, service and equipment. Highly recommend.
I’ll admit, I was a little nervous at first — I’m a mom and not exactly an adrenaline junkie. But the staff at Northeast Snowmobile made everything so easy. They walked us through the basics and made sure I felt comfortable before we set out. The GPS routes gave me peace of mind, and my son had the time of his life. It ended up being one of our favorite winter memories — safe, fun, and totally worth it.
My girlfriend and I had a blast. We rented a machine for 4hrs. The machine was brand new and had alot more acceleration than I was expecting. The conditions were wet and muddy which personally I thought added to the fun. The staff was great as well. Everyone was nice and in a good mood. We will definitely be back to ride again.
Your Questions Answered
What should I wear?
Dress in layers and wear the warmest winter clothing you have—it is better to overdress than underdress. We recommend insulated outerwear, warm gloves, winter boots, and a balaclava or face covering. Rental clothing is available on a first-come, first-served basis. Remember, passengers are always colder!
What happens if the snowmobile is damaged?
Every snowmobile rental includes AdventureAssure Standard, which caps covered vehicle damage costs at $1,000 per machine and loss-of-use and recovery charges at $750. For $10 per machine per day, Upgraded protection reduces these limits to $500 and $250, respectively. We photograph machines before and after rentals and assess repairs using replacement parts and labor. Dented, bent or broken metal and cracked plastics require replacement; drive-belt damage is reviewed case by case. Coverage terms and exclusions apply. See the Polaris Adventures Rider Protections link below the FAQs for full details.
Can couples and families ride together?
Absolutely. Our rentals are a great option for couples, families, and groups who want to explore together at their own pace. Passenger age and driver requirements still apply.
What happens if the trails close?
If trail conditions affect your reservation, we will proactively contact you to explain the situation and discuss the available options.
What is included with my rental?
Your rental includes the snowmobile, fuel, a helmet, Polaris Ride Command GPS, AdventureAssure Standard protections, access to our rescue hotline, and an emergency satellite beacon. You can choose Upgraded AdventureAssure protection for $10 per machine per day to reduce your out-of-pocket costs for covered vehicle damage and loss-of-use and recovery charges.
Do you offer guided snowmobile tours?
No. We offer self-guided snowmobile rentals rather than traditional guided tours. That gives you more freedom to ride with your own group, choose your route on the approved trail system, stop when you want, and explore at your own pace for the full length of your rental. Every snowmobile includes Polaris Ride Command GPS with the local trail network loaded, and our team can highlight a recommended route directly in the machine based on your rental length, experience level, and what you want to see. If you are newer or less confident, we can provide a more hands-on orientation, help plan your route, highlight turns and stops, and make sure you are comfortable before you head out.
What is the minimum age to drive?
Drivers must be at least 21 years old and possess a valid driver’s license. Drivers under the age of 25 may not carry passengers under the age of 18.
How old does a passenger have to be?
Passengers must be at least 5 years old and 48 inches tall. Children must also be physically strong enough to maintain proper posture and safely hold on for the duration of the ride.
Where can we rent a snowmobile?
We have locations in Gorham, New Hampshire, Rangeley, Maine and Fryeburg, Maine.
Do you offer group discounts?
Unfortunately, we do not offer group discounts.
Do we need to arrive early?
Customers are responsible for arriving early enough to complete check-in and the required safety briefing. We are strict with start and end times, so please plan to arrive 45–60 minutes before your scheduled rental to ensure you’re ready to ride on time.
Can I trailer the snowmobile to a different location?
Yes, as long as your trailer appears safe and suitable for transport. Customers are responsible for properly loading and securing the machine, and it may only be used on approved trails.
Can I use my own helmet?
Yes, as long as it is DOT approved.
What are the trails like?
Our trails are groomed and well-marked, with a variety of terrain from forest routes to open fields and mountain views.
Do you offer delivery and pickup?
Yes. We can deliver snowmobiles to your home, short-term rental property, or trailhead and pick them up when your rental ends. Delivery is available on rentals of 24 hours or more with drop-off and pickup scheduled in the morning or evening. Delivery and pickup are not available on weekends. Your delivery location must have direct snowmobile trail access. One delivery charge covers both drop-off and pickup, and charges vary by location, distance and amount of snowmobiles — email us at info@northeastsnowmobile.com for a quote when you book.
Can I ride the snowmobile on a frozen lake?
Only where the lake is part of the designated snowmobile trail system, as some lakes are in the Rangeley, Maine area. Otherwise, our snowmobiles are not permitted on lakes — including for ice fishing, transporting gear, or crossing to another trail. If you are not sure whether a lake is part of the trail system, ask us before you ride.
