Working with On the Water in Maine was great. The automated messages for the initial rental and access (later) of the property were very informative. Similarly, the information provided upon arrival to the property had everything we needed. When communicating directly via email, response time felt a little delayed (~24-48 hours) but that's because we live in an era where we (unreasonably) expect immediate responses for everything :).

The house was so cozy. The beds were just as comfortable as those we have at home. And, the house was warm. The first 2 days we were there it was cold/rainy so it was so nice to have a nice warm home to read, relax, play games in.
On top of the coziness, we loved the location in Lincolnville, the proximity to the ocean (the ramp to the rocky shoreline was an unexpected plus - i thought it was a steep embankment) and the pool was also a huge hit. The children used the pool multiple times a day regardless of what the weather was doing.

We were absolutely thrilled with Penobscot View! The house was nicely appointed and very comfortable for our party of 7 (including my 88 yr.old mother) We loved the unobstructed view, the expansive lawn area, pool, and the graveled ramp down to the beach. It was like our own private resort!

We loved the view! Every afternoon was spent out front reading and just relaxing and watching the ferry go by. We had a power outage and the fact there was a generator was fantastic! It even got so cold we needed to turn on the fireplace. Overall it was an amazing stay.

The house is spacious with fabulous views of the ocean, yet the property is secluded and private.
The pool was such a bonus having a 10 and 12 year old with us, and the path to the beach along with the rocky shore made for great exploring.
The house layout was perfect for our family and the master bedroom was quite luxurious.

Amazing water views! Rocky beach below not very usable however. Having the pool on site was a redeeming quality and the sandy beach downtown was a short walk down the driveway.

Beautiful property and view. Photos depict the house exactly as it is. Kitchen was very well stocked with everything you need. Grill worked great. Some doors stick and are hard to lock but we figured it out. We would highly recommend this property. More seating in living room would be nice because more than 5 people (and that's a stretch as it is) cannot all fit at once.

We loved the house. We had small kids with us given that my daughter and family were sharing the house with us. The space was perfect for this arrangement. The floor plan on the first floor offered plenty of space, along with the yard with an amazing view of the bay. The seperate suite upstairs made this perfect for the "older" folks. Having Lincolnville within walking distance was perfect.
