Always a pleasure! The OTWIM team is skilled, helpful and gracious in every situation. We count on them and they always come through for us. THE BEST!

The view from Summer Wind is just simply glorious!

We had minimal interaction with the team since everything went so smoothly, but the interactions I had were all positive and very helpful.

The location was wonderful and the garage apartment was great. It allowed for extended family to join us on a vacation easily. My favorite thing about it was the sunroom and deck. Great views and relaxing for morning and afternoon.

They were great as they are always are. Kim was especially helpful!

We have stayed at the Waterside Retreat seven or eight times and are always very pleased. There's nothing fancy about it. It's really very simple. But it works and works perfectly. It's immaculately clean, well furnished, with good central air conditioning and wonderful beds. We've stayed at much more lavish and expensive properties over the years, but we will continue to come back to Waterside when we return to Maine.

All team members were very helpful and quick to respond to questions.

Too many favorite features to list. Highlights were the pond itself, the quiet and peacefulness and general location of the property. The dock for early morning coffee or late afternoon snacks. The cottage itself was homelike and had everything needed for an extended stay.

For the second straight year, we had a great experience working with On the Water in Maine. Any questions I had about booking, check-in, or the general area were answered promptly and completely. We experienced no glitches whatsoever; the whole process could not have been easier.

The house and the grounds are beautiful and lovingly maintained. The lake is everything you'd want from a Maine lake: crystal clear water, woodsy surroundings, and of course a family of loons. Everything that was provided (a lot!) was in great condition...boats and tubes, lakeside seating, kitchen stuff, games, etc. I enjoyed feeding the birds during our stay, and watching and listening to them and the bees buzzing in the hydrangeas. The grounds overall provided a place for everything from corn hole to campfires to stargazing. It was everything we could possibly want.

It was great - another great year.

Loved it - my favorite house in Bayside

Very professional in all aspects of my rental experience.

Seascape - wonderful house in an amazing setting. Views were spectacular.

Easy to work with.

The view is fabulous. Well stocked kitchen.

Excellent, accurate information at all stages of the rental process.

Great location very close to Bath, beautiful views of the Kennebec River, lovely screen house. Very comfortable, well designed summer home.

It was easy and everyone was very pleasant!

It was better than expected, and the additional "suite" in the basement was excellent! Favorite feature was how nice a swimming area it was. Also loved the firepit and deck.

No problems at all

Such a wonderful house. Clean. Well stocked. And comfortable. We love the porch!!

Everything went smoothly, finding a great propertycheck in and out! Hope to make it back to Maine next year.

Property was very well appointed., from kitchen to the shed that held the life preservers. House was immaculate and had enough bath towels for all. Cant say enough about the view coffee every morning and cocktails watching the sunset, even the wildlife cooperated. We saw an eagle and even had a skunk visit!

This was our fourth stay with On the Water (first in 2017), and as always, the team was efficient and helpful and very clear with directions and protocols. A pleasure to work with.

We stayed at Lazy Days cottage on Crawford Pond, and it was the best of the three cottages at which we've stayed: comfortable and clean, with wonderful amenities in the kitchen. Wonderful to take breakfast on the east facing deck. The grounds are beautifully kept with lovely wild flowers. The walk to the lake is a bit arduous, just as described, but a good workout for all of us (even 85-year-old me). The dock is very well maintained, and swimming is a delight.

Easy to work with you.

Having stayed at Norton Pond Cottage previously, we were blown away by the complete renovation! It worked very well for us. This was the best rental property we have ever had - a like-new house, a great location, quiet neighbors.

very responsive

They did a great job renovating Fernwood. Excellent facilities. Great dock

Excellent responses

Bayberry site and water access are fantastic!!Beaytiful gardens and nicely appointed living spaces

Always enjoy the seamless communication.

The Jewel is beautiful. It is well maintained and kept in great shape. The gardens are amazing. They seem to improve every year. Looking forward to next year already!!

Everything went very smoothly and I received excellent service.

The property was heaven. The private beach was our favorite part.

Excellent service and attention. Thank you

We loved Clam Cove cottage! It is a beautiful carefully attended to home. The grounds and the view of the bay are just stunning. We rented kayaks and enjoyed low tide walking out to the water with the dogs. Perfect week. Thank you.

accessable and responsive

Well maintained and relaxing. A good place to lose time.

Excellent, as always. Thank you for accommodating us on the day of check-out at Grandview and check-in to Seahuas. That was a huge help to our family.

We absolutely love Seahaus and didn't want to leave. The privacy and the walk down to the water over the wood chip trail was peaceful. We enjoyed staying in Lincolnville for the first time. The size of the home was perfect for our family of three.

Ive never had an issue. Everyone is kind, informative, and incredibly helpful.

We just stayed at Lazy Days and my favorite feature was, of course, the lake. I also loved the open floor plan and location in relation to my favorite towns.

I was pleased with the immediate response when the entry code would not work upon our arrival and Kim answered on my first call attempt and was able to give us the new code. She also communicated via call and text when a plumber (turned out to be my nephew!) had to come to address an issue with a pump.

I love that the property was newly renovated with a modern, clean look. The location was wonderful at the end of the road / on a point so that it was nice and quiet. I loved how close to the water the house was so that we had a view; that is largely what I pay for. I love it when owners include kayaks in their property amenities so that I don't have the added expense of renting something to actually be out on the water.

Our experience with on the water was good. When we got there some of our electricity was out and Kim came immediately and fixed the issue.

The property was well equipped and had everything we needed. The location was wonderful because you could walk everywhere.

Not sure how many years we have booked with OTW but it is always wonderful without any issues.

Back deck looking at Rockland Harbor and spacious interior. Proximately to Rockland.
