On the Water was very helpful during our vacation rental. We specifically dealt with Kelsey. We very much wanted to rent Rushing Tides during a specific week that wasn't completely available due to the Labor Day holiday and the owners wanting to enjoy their property. With some phone calls and the owners agreeing, Kelsey made it happen. Emails kept us informed throughout the process. Check in and check out was easy and it was nice to have the "Information Book" handy at the house for any questions we had. We would happily rent though On the Water again!

We enjoyed our stay at Rushing Tides from the moment we entered the property. It felt like home and was absolutely beautiful. We loved that it sets on a semi-private, spacious lot with a fun view of the North End Lobster Co-Op lobster men hauling in their traps each day. We watched them every morning from either the comfortable deck or better yet, from the dock. Another perk - the Co-Op is a short walk down the road where we purchased our dinner often. The kitchen at Rushing Tides was well stocked with all the gadgets needed to make wonderful meals while making great memories. We enjoyed both the fire pit outside and the beautiful fire place inside after our dinners. At night, the bedrooms were perfect with comfortable beds and so nice to each have a private bathroom.
The location of Rushing Tides is super. Minutes from Wiscasset, where we frequented Red's Eats (A MUST go to place) and ordered out lobster pizza from Sarah's Cafe. A half hour from Boothbay Harbor and Freeport, both fun places to go.
Rushing Tides is a perfect place to get away and relax in Maine! We hope to go back someday!

We appreciated the quick response we received with our TV controller and the installation of a new washer.

We enjoyed sitting on the chairs on the deck in the early morning sun and watching the loons as they dive and reappear distances away, and we loved hearing their calls in the quiet of the night.
We spent many afternoons reading under the umbrellas on the deck and having dinner there with our family. It was a very peaceful stay.

This house was by far our favorite rental since we have been coming to the mid-coast. Wonderful large, open spaces and ever-present views of the bay. Great privacy not only from Rte.1 but also the houses on either side. We enjoyed the proximity to Camden without the extra driving we had from Rackliff Island. And the bald eagle that flew low over the deck late every afternoon was a real treat.
The water in the house is extremely "soft" from the Culligan treatment making it very slippery in the bathroom. Anti-slip mats would be welcome for the floor and tub.

Enjoyed the house and the property very much. Loved that each bedroom had its own bathroom. Enjoyed the views from the property, the firepit, walking on the new dock. Furniture was comfortable, kitchen pretty well stocked. Good location for visiting Damariscotta, Boothbay and Pemaquid.

Hobbs pond has the cleanest water I've ever seen for a pond. It was warm and we could see the bottom! Perfect place to swim and kayak! The house worked well for our family of four.

It was a very pleasant experience working with the agency, On the Water in Maine Inc. The staff was friendly, helpful, informative and knowledgeable. Perfect service!

Quiet, peaceful and a fantastic view of Penobscot Bay from the cozy porch. It was great to come back to for relaxing after a full day of touring. They really thought of everything to help give it a home away from home feel; there were fresh cut flowers on the table when we arrived and a kitchen full of everything we would possibly need from kabob skewers & grilling tools to a lobster pot (and instructions), and everything in-between. It was very clean with what looked like brand new furniture and a sweet mix of art and antiques throughout. We loved the safe feel of a private location being off and away from busy streets but close enough to get there when we wanted to. We would recommend Harmony Cottage to anyone wanting to visit Maine!

The house and the views from everywhere were absolutely stunning.
The house itself was beautifully laid out and perfectly suited for the number of people who stayed there.
Every - and I mean every - kitchen item was perfect.

The staff is always courteous and responsive. The property is well managed, well kept and updates are made every year. They listen to their guests and do an outstanding job of attending to their needs. Renting through them is efficient, informative and highly organized. They have an outstanding website that is easy to navigate and contains all the information needed to decide on a property to rent.

We return to Juniper Bank year after year because the house is large, comfortable and is equipped with all the necessities of modern living. The view of the water, islands and Owls Head harbor is our favorite feature of the house. It is also convenient to Rockland and all the boating, entertainment, restaurants, art galleries, walking trails, etc. the area has to offer.

OWM was very helpful during the nearly year long process of finding a property, settling on dates, negotiating our dog, and understanding physical details of the property. I think this is a company that excels in customer service and tries very hard to accommodate clients. This makes OWM exceptional.

Overall a wonderful house for we 6 adults, 2 children, 1 toddler, and our family dog. Plenty of room both inside and outside. Nicely situated on a peninsula without any neighbors nearby so if the children wanted to run and shout there was no worry about bothering neighbors. The dock was great for launching the kayaks and the kayaking around this area was so beautiful. The rocky beach and groomed trails kept the children endlessly entertained. The kitchen was amazingly well stocked with equipment, at least 3 different types of coffee makers, not just the Keruig type. Dishware and cutlery was very nice and plenty of it. Then there was the quiet! So tranquil and peaceful. Really helped all of us recharge our personal batteries.
