Guest Reviews

The people at Water on Maine were very friendly and helpful. I booked the property at the last minutes and they reacted very fast to make everything work smoothly and efficiently.

Weloved the property. It was so roomy and bright for a 1 bedroom cottage. The kitchen and view is amazing.

It was very easier working with One the Water. We thought everyone was very professional and responsive.

We really like staying at the Luv Cottage. It has a great location...right up from the pier. We really like the screened in porch. It's really nice to sit out there rain or shine....and no mosquitos! We also really like the new mud room area.

Working with On the Water in Maine was fast and easy. Most everything was automated and I never needed to follow-up on anything. On the Water in Maine provided reminders when things were due and detailed instructions for everything I needed including directions to the property. On the Water in Maine was recommended to me by a relative and I have already recommended them to others and will continue to do so.

LedgeLawn greatly exceeded our expectations. It is much larger than expected. Our group consisted of 4 families and each had their own bathroom. Each day began with coffee on the large outside deck where we talked for hours. Each evening ended the with drinks and appetizers. The kids spent hours in the pool while the adult men spent time fishing off the dock. The kitchen had everything we needed to prepare meals including a 27 lobster dinner late in the week. I can't say enough positive things about this property.

On the Water in Maine was a great agency to work with; very prompt communications.

Location was absolutely perfect--loved the little town, and close to many locations to drive on daytrips. Main room was perfect with all its windows; so relaxing especially with no television to detract from nature, water,and boats! Downstairs TV room was perfect for the kids, and for family movie nights. Just four of us stayed here, so didn't need the loft bedroom or downstairs bunks, but we all keep talking about how it was perfect for us and we can't wait to go back!

On The Water has perfected their recipe for success. One can tell that they have looked at their business model from every angle and I am sure are focused on Continued-Process-Improvement, which from a customer's perspective, everyone wins! The level of communication is key, from the pre and post rental emails as well as the detailed renters guidebook available at the property. This guidebook includes helpful information about the home, suggested things to do - day by day, restaurants, galleries etc. and for the new kids in town, how to cook and eat a lobster! On The Water has insightful knowledge of Maine in general and the wisdom to translate it's beauty and the beauty of their properties to their customers ensuring a memorable vacation.

The cottage was a shear delight! The setting could not be any more picturesque with a panoramic view of the gorgeous Maine coastline from almost every window. The cottage/home is tastefully decorated with a relaxing color pallet, clean lines and lovely appointments producing a very restful ambience. A charming place to call home for a week with little adjustment from your everyday conveniences to a "cottage". You may only have to remember to turn left rather than right to pick up your lobster pot, locate the wine opener or reach for a martini glass! There was also an unexpected surprise, the back upper deck was to be "unavailable" during the 2014 season due to renovations. That was not a problem as On The Water ensured that the work would not be done during the customer rental season. When we walked up the stairs, we noted french doors to the left which opened up to a beautiful library/sitting room with still more views of the sea. This room is another extension of the tasteful decor and encouragement to sit back and enjoy the view! Owls Head is a hidden treasure and I believe that renting anywhere in this area, through On The Water, would be a guaranteed success!

On the Water In Maine was very organized from start to finish and provided a smooth rental process for us. We needed help with a minor situation at the cottage and Justin responded immediately and it was taken care of.

Crockett Beach Cottage was the perfect location for us. We loved the privacy, having the beach steps from our front door, and the Town of Owl's Head itself. We loved being close to Owl's Head Light, Birch Point State Park, The Owl's Head Transportation Museum, The Coastal Children's Museum, Rockland and Camden.

Very helpful. There was always someone there to answer our calls.

Very enjoyable. The home is lovely and the view is spectacular!

On the Water in Maine was great to work with, everyone I spoke with was very helpful and friendly.

Very quaint and cozy cottage and barn with absolutely beautiful views from the property. Very close to Boothbay and the shops and restaurants. Highly recommended and would definitely stay there again!

We found working with your agency extremely easy and things worked as described. Every detail of living in the cottage was clearly described. The detailed information on shopping and restaurants was helpful.

We enjoyed reading on the front porch in the mornings. Eating Lobster cooked at Hannaford on the back deck. Ocean views from the ocean side bedroom, porch, and the living room. We loved reading, swimming, and sail boarding on the beach which was just a short distance from our cottage. We loved the wood interior with planking up to 2 feet wide in places. We enjoyed the history of our cottage.

No problems with agency. Everything simple and convenient .

Beautiful view. Spacious home, very suitable for multiple families.

Very professional - you guys thought of nearly everything. We have rented homes extensively throughout the world, and I appreciated very much your organization and attention to detail.

Beautiful location, gorgeous cottage. Perfect for our family. We had a great week.

The folks that run "On the Water" are amazingly detail oriented, and very tuned into the renters and their needs. Although we had no problems, I have no doubts that if we did, indeed, run into some kind of trouble, they would come quickly to the rescue.

The Ducktrap Cottage was a beautifully landscaped, well-equipped house nestled on a quiet road which led down to a lovely harbor. It was spotless, very quiet, and quite peaceful. It provided a very relaxing spot in which to take a vacation.

Excellent group of people who really care about their customers and the properties.

Great house, wonderful neighborhood. Avoiding the Wiscasset traffic is always nice getting to and from ones rental. Kayaking is possible from the house, but only around high tides due to the mud. It is also quite safe if you stay upriver, that is heading towards wiscasset. Lots to see and explore. It really is only missing a dock.

Very professional staff. Every detail of our stay was addressed. Well- timed emails assured us of a carefree stay.

Extremely clean and comfortable. Very well stocked Quiet location with wonderful views. Really didn't want to leave

Very helpful with directions and details.

Picture-perfect area...loved it! Property was exactly as pictured and described. Loved the open floor plan on the first floor...great for family time.

Boy was the rental process efficient!

Rockland really is a beautiful area. We enjoyed that we could walk to most places we wanted to visit, including the Blues Festival. What a surprise to see that there were 3 en suite bathrooms -- made it very comfortable for our weekend guests. -- we would like to reserve the same week next year!

Working with your agency was a pleasant experience for us as first time renters. The information about the property and area made the stay very easy.

Our stay in Rip's View was perfect. The accommodations were cozy, warm, spacious, and comfortable. The property is private and yet convenient to market, restaurants, stores when needed. The riverfront is very picturesque, peaceful, and serene. The property is ideal for peaceful vacationing, yet ideal for entertaining which we did for my birthday with a wonderful Clambake/Lobster Fest prepared by friends in a traditional New England fashion including homemade blueberry cake for birthday cake! Hopefully we will be able to do a repeat trip from California same time next summer.

Every time I contacted On the Water in Maine the staff was courteous and quick to respond. Emails were usually answered the same day. Both calls we placed to On the Water in Maine during our vacation were received pleasantly and all questions were answered without hesitation. On the very first day of our vacation the doorknob on the main outside door broke off and the company sent a repair man out to fix it the very next day.

The property was great. It had everything we needed for an enjoyable stay - good quality cooking equipment, random supplies that we forgot (like tupperware containers and paper towels) and even a lot of toys for our 3-year-old to play with! The location couldn't have been better and the view was spectacular.

We have been working with On the Water in Maine for the last 4 vacations, and we will continue to do so, because they are so efficient. We know we will have a great experience because they take care of every detail.

It suits our 3 families , son, his wife, w girls, daughter, husband , 2 girls, and the 2 of us. The one big bedroom withe it's own bath is perfect for the girls, and the parents have a room each with a big shared bath. We have a large bedroom on first floor with walk in closet and bath. The rooms all have a great view of the lake, and it doesn't feel like work to cook in the remodeled kitchen with panoramic view.

OTWIM is excellent to work with. Always available to talk with or email with.

The Port Clyde House is a fabulous place for a family vacation! Beautiful setting on a lovely small port town. Near the Monhegan Ferry. And a walk to lobster and ice cream!

excellent efficient

nice to be at Hillcrest, people compliment the home every day
