We didn't have a whole lot of interaction with On the Water in Maine - we really didn't need anything from them during our stay. However, they did deliver everything they promised and we will definitely use them again in the future.

Winter's Way was an excellent ski condo! We loved all the furnishings and decor, the kitchen equipment and housewares - all of it! The condo was so well prepared for our vacation. In the past when we have stayed at Sugarloaf condos, they are often beaten up and resemble a well used rental. Winter's Way was lovingly cared for and we felt right at home. It was nice looking out the large windows to the Snubber Chairlift moving by. We loved that we could waive to our kids from the condo when they were on the lift. What a surprise to find out that no only was the condo ski in and ski out, but that the entire cross country ski and snowshoe trail access was just a few hundred feet behind the condo as well. We can't imagine staying at any other condo on the mountain in the future.

The internet connection was marginal. Bandwidth was ok in the morning but as the day progressed, bandwidth diminished to the point where is was not usable. It would seem that you are sharing bandwidth with others. I'm not sure what technology you are using. Lots of room for two families. Close to the Snubber chair.

All at On the Water in Maine were very helpful - You have a very nice place and we enjoyed our stay there very much. Beautiful area and close enough to the coast to enjoy some of the best seafood anywhere. Clean well kept cabin. Will stay there again. Thanks for making our stay so pleasant.

You have a very nice place and we enjoyed our stay there very much.

I stayed at the cottage in September of 2011 - so these are older comments - but here is what is still fresh in my memory... The cottage is bright and airy with a beautiful view of the cove. The living/kitchen/ dining area is open, yet cozy, with all of the amenities needed to cook a good meal and host friends. The bedrooms are comfortable. The loft is a great place to escape to read a book or take a nap. One of the best features of the house is the deck which overlooks Turkey Cove. It is a fine place to sit and watch the sunset or the fog roll in off of the water. I enjoyed the time spent there.

On the Water in Maine was a very knowledgable and very helpful team. Seaside Cottage is a modern home decorated very nicely - spacious.

Even a short stay at your house equals a longer vacation, because it's so peaceful and tranquil! I felt refreshed. Love your choices of colors, your kitchen is thoughtfully equipped and the basement is a perfect place for visiting kids to hang out. It's a very peaceful house. I keep going back to that word, "peaceful." The colors, the dcor, the surroundings.. There's everything you need (even if you are a picky cook and even if you want to have friends for dinner) but it's not overwhelming; lets you breath. I don't want to forget: sunsets are spectacular. But at any time of the day, just sitting there and watching the tide, the birds... is all I need to disconnect and rest from a pretty stressful job. Having the cove right there is the best, no need to drive. Good walks.

I did not use On the Water in Maine when I rented this property last year because it was with another company then - but I am impressed with your website and information. This is the most perfect spot you'll find in Maine. Water & scenic views from everywhere; quiet spot but near town, pretty/cozy house & porch; could sit on dock & never want to go anywhere else.

Thank you for keeping your property equipped with all the kitchen utensils and nice linens. It really made a difference compared to the VRBO listing we stayed at in Orlando. That coupled with the polished team that serviced our stay - made for a memorable vacation!

I have stayed at this house several times. While small, it is nicely appointed, compact and livable with privacy and superb views overlooking the water. The house is well-maintained and in immediate check-in condition.

My favorite thing about the cottage was that EVERYTHING was exactaly as described! This was a family vacation to include our sons, aged 30 & 32. They were thrilled as well. Hope to see you this august again

Our favorite feature was the water views from every room and easy access to beach.

Met Justin who was polite and helpful.

We have rented houses in various states of the US and in Europe and this is one of the best. The views of the harbour are enchanting and we sat there for hours watching the boats come in and out, including a number of tall ships. All of the facilities inside and out are of the highest quality. The house is in easy reach of Rockland centre and also the beaches around Owls Head. Garden and deck were great and the inside was unbelievably comfortable. There are many great things about Summer Wind. Not quite a facility of the property but Jess's fish store just up the road is a palace of delights.

Highly enjoyable and very impressed with the house and the way everything was handled by On the Water in Maine.

This is our 4th year of renting a vacation home with On the Water in Maine (and 2nd year at Bayberry Cottage). Everyone at your office is very friendly and accommodating. Just when we already thought you were the best at what you do, you top it. Delivering my husbands prescription medicine packages after we forgot that home to us at the house after we had sent to your office seemed like an easy thing, until we later learned that your office is over a 1/2 hour from the Bayberry Cottage. You delivered them as if it was an easy thing to do - and free of charge. Kudos to you!

This was our 2nd year at the Bayberry Cottage - next year will be our 3rd! We've stayed in a lot of vacation homes around the world - and Bayberry Cottage has fit us the best. We love the well equipped "cooks kitchen", the deck off the back of the house, the new patio area down by the dock - and even just sitting on the dock itself. The welcoming furnishings that include a mix of antiques and Pottery Barn flare are just as I would furnish the house if it were ours. We especially love kayaking trips from the dock. Next summer, we may rent a power boat to explore a little further. You are truly lucky to have such a fabulous home!

A big thank you to all involved at On the Water in Maine.

The view of the pond was our favorite feature of this house. This was a staycation for us. We required a place away from home but not to far to drive the kids to school. Waterview and wood stove were also a must - and we got that here. Great place to decompress after a busy summer of being host and hostess. We share similar tastes. Our house is also post and beam and full of sunlight. We own the Windjammer J&E Riggin which sails from Rockland on 4--6 day trips.
