Guest Reviews

Our family rented this house for Thanksgiving to have everyone under one roof for the holiday weekend. The house is very well-designed. The living room, the kitchen, and the dining area are all one open contiguous space, allowing everyone in these spaces to be together. The house also is new construction. It is heated through the floor and very comfortable in the winter. Great view over the water from the living room. Very clean. Very responsive management.

The views and serenity from this property are unprecedented. Not to mention the property is immaculately clean. Far enough away from town to have privacy, but close enough to indulge in cafes, shopping, and a few high end dinners on quaint Main St. We especially loved being able to wake up to stunning sunrises and wind down with world class sunsets, explore a few lighthouses nearby, venture north to Acadia and south to Glidden Point Oyster Farm. 10/10 would visit again - if youre looking to experience quintessential Maine, this is the basecamp to do it from!

The Ocean Watch Maine house is a relaxing retreat in an incredible location for enjoying the Maine scenery any time of year. The house is expertly designed with all the comforts you would expect from a high end vacation, and the waterside access/view are second to none. It benefits from complete privacy while being conveniently close to a variety of nearby towns and dining destinations. We will definitely visit again.

My family and I (husband and 2 kids) stayed at Ocean Watch over the summer and it was absolutely idyllic. The home is brand new, spacious, and so beautifully designed. The location is private, giving a feeling that you can truly disconnect. But my favorite part was the sunset from the porch - top 3 Ive ever seen in my life. Would love to return.

You are always the best, and always responsive!

My favorite feature of Safe Harbor is the big porch with the picnic tables

As always, extremely helpful and friendly.

Very comfortable, spacious and in a great location. Loved the central air!

This is our third year renting with On the Water in Maine. They are ALWAYS available and willing to go the extra mile to ensure our vacation is amazing

We stayed at Safe Harbor! We are huge fans of Lake Megunticook!

Always excellent, always responsive

Excellent house, perfect condition. It took awhile to master the door mechanism.

Working with On the Water in Maine was efficient and satisfactory.

The Lake Escape property was beautiful! The setting was perfect, the landscaping is gorgeous and the home is spacious, comfortable and well appointed.

On the Water in Maine is always great to deal with. With the sale of Safe Harbor this year they were put to the test.

We had a great week on the lake for the 4th straight year. The peaceful cove and dock along with that grand front porch are our favorites.

Always great to work with. Always respond immediately to any questions.

Air hockey table and big room on the ground floor. Lots of space.

We had a very good experience. Especially appreciated the quick and professional service when we had trouble accessing the house when we arrived. Your team got us info/answers very quickly and we appreciated that.

The house is fabulous! Everything is so fresh and new and the design of the home is amazing. It had everything we needed in the kitchen, which almost never happens with a rental. It was also lovely that the owners left us flowers, scones and a bottle of wine to welcome us. Wonderful experience -- we would go back!

Overall the experience was positive and mostly responsive with some hiccups. Once we arrived at the property, we put the code into the master lock box and could not open it. We all tried, looked for other boxes, and could not get in. It took a while (about 20 minutes or so) to get in touch with someone. I kept getting the wrong extension and didn't want to select "emergency." Once I did, I left a message and Meg returned my call quickly. By then, my husband realized the back door was unlocked. Meg explained the lock box was hanging from the door handle hidden by the door plaque all this time! Ugh. We called back and left a message because the back door actually would not lock at all and this was an issue for my mom who has PTSD. Tiffany called the next day and apologized for not responding the night before due to a miscommunication. I appreciated the call.

This 62 Norton Pond Road property is beyond spectacular. We were actually in shock at the large size of the "guest house" and this made sleeping arrangements work out so well! But... the VIEW of the pond and the surrounding nature were without question our favorite feature. We rented kayaks and SUP's and this was the highlight of the trip on nice weather days. At one point, we saw about 20 bald eagles! We loved the layout of the kitchen, dining, and lounge area all centered around a stunning view. The flowers and plants on the grounds - especially the lily's - were stunning! I greatly enjoyed the trees and nature paths around the property.

The On the Water team was responsive and easily available whenever there was a maintenance issue.

We loved Safe Harbor. The house was lovely, well cared for and the size accommodated our family.. loved the swim doc and access to the lake

Everyone was very friendly and prompt and accommodating.

The property was spacious, nicely decorated and clean. Our fav feature by far was the pond - being directly on it and the beautiful view of it!

Very responsive

Beautifully finished and equipped. Loved that every room has a lake view. The guest house is a fantastic option for larger groups. Gardens are fabulous.

Very professional

It was a lovely cottage

Easy and smooth from the search process, to booking, and finally checking in and checking out.

This property is a true gem in this sweet little town of Maine. My family was overwhelmed with its beauty. The home was so well taken care of and the 10 of us had more than enough room to enjoy all of it. We fell in love with this home and we are so blessed to have been able to stay in this spectacular home. From the views on the water from each space, to the amazing kitchen, lovely pantry, and game room we enjoyed this house so much. Until we meet again Candys Cove!

Second time booking through on the water. Very easy with smooth electronic communication. Reached out to ask a question regarding the property and received a prompt response.

Repeat visit and loved it just as much. Don't need to bring anything extra, it has it all. Really appreciated the large number of water vessels (kayaks, SUPs, canoe, row boat, water pad)

We always have an easy time working with On the Water. They answer all my questions immediately and are more than helpful.

Piper Cove is a quaint little camp on a perfect spot on the lake. Its very peaceful and relaxing.

We were the first to rent so we were short an LP tank. The response was very prompt. So great.

The loons and bald eagles of course the lake!

Great experience, no issues

A Stones Throw Away This is our 11th year, we love the location and the view! Larger beds would be nice and a recliner. Rocking chairs were new since our last visit, which was nice. Kitchen table was different from last visit but not study at all and leaves in it kept separating. Outdoor furniture is great!

When we arrived at our Ginn Point rental, I could not figure out how to work the dead bolt. It would have been helpful if instructions on how to operate that particular idiosyncratic type of dead bolt had been included in the initial written instructions. When I called into the office about locking the house, the person I talked to was very friendly and reassuring. The cell phone reception was stuttering. Maybe warn customers that cell phone reception can be problematic, and the line may be busy, so have patience, someone will respond and help. Once I was able to connect, the person at the office was great!

It was gorgeous! Amazing view with lots of windows to take advantage of the panorama. The house was both absolutely lovely and practical. It is very user friendly for an elderly person. My mother who's mobility is somewhat compromised was able to get around very comfortably, nice and open and uncluttered, no steps to deal with.

Very good

Super place
