Guest Reviews

I had a wonderful experience. We loved On the Water Maine. Its the best home rental Ive ever used.

The kitchen was stocked incredibly well! The view was amazing!

After 4 seasons, we've had nothing but a positive experience with the OTW team. They are responsive to issues in a fairly timely manner.

We had a great family week with our three adult kids and their families. Spent a lot of time in the water and loved the lawn area in front of the house.

Excellent service, best anywhere. We are fortunate to travel often and to many places. On the Water is the best rental agency that we have experienced.

Perfect house for the perfect Maine vacation. The view, the sounds, the water. Everything about it is perfect. It's our favorite vacation home.

We thoroughly enjoyed our week rental and working with the attentive staff of On the Water. in particular, tiffany Ford(owner of OTW) was very helpful and responsive to our needs as renters and responsive to any issues which we had in securing the rental and during our stay.

Lakefront property, great locations, lots of room for family of 7.

Very smooth, no issues.

Loved the property, all the windows overlooking the bay and the back deck/porch. Ate most of our dinners on the outdoor dining table overlooking the bay. Perfect blend of privacy and beauty.

Great

Riverfront. View from living room. Location is great.

Thought the process was thorough and efficient.

Liked the house a lot especially the kitchen and dining area and felt the views were the highlight.

The process was easy, and we had no difficulties.

Our stay was marvelous! The house was perfect for two seniors, two adults, and two teens that stayed there. The home was well laid out for our family, and well furnished. The view was beautiful! And the walking access to town was a definite plus. We were able to walk to the shops and restaurants with ease.

I find it incredibly easy to work with the team.

Third time at the cottage and enjoy it location and views.

Excellent. Clear, detailed, thorough, honest communications

Beautiful house with well thought out use of space. Favorite feature is the views through expansive glass.

The entire team was so friendly and responsive!

Peaceful! Loved the beach access and seclusion, but also only 1 hour to Bar Harbor. The home was welcoming, amazing views, lots of room and dog friendly too!

Paige and all the group were wonderful. She took the time to provide her local knowledge and was able to help us find some local spots to go that were not on the tourist radar. Paige answered all of my questions and said to call her any time we had questions or needed some other guidance.

Thoughtful owner that truly cared about her guests wellbeing and wanted to make sure they had all they needed for an enjoyable stay. Of course the view was beautiful and the place was very secluded.

Very positive experience all around. Reservations were smooth. Had only one issue while staying where the Internet connection went out - sorry Im forgetting her name but the woman who helped with this was great - interfaced with the ISP and got someone out to fix it. Also kept me updated along the way and offered to be there for the tech in case we had plans. Rental property was top notch, team was easy to work with and responsive. Nice to have a local company to work with instead of a more anonymous gig app type place.

The place was great. Plenty of room for our group, clean and updated. Highlight for us was the location. Pleasant walk to town and Laite Beach. Easy drive to Megunticook for paddling fun.

Wonderful start to finish. Professional, communicative, exceptional property

Can't say enough about the property! Clean, inviting, gorgeous location. Expansive grassy area leading to dock, clean and beautiful pond for swimming and kayaking. Perfect location on the water yet 15 minutes from beautiful waterfront town in Camden Maine.

The house is gorgeous and well-appointed, as advertised. Everything went smoothly, had no issues.

The yard, the location, and the layout of the house were all exceptional.

Great experience. Booking was easy, communications were clear. No complaints at all

Everything was great. House was clean and comfortable. Kitchen had everything you could need to cook, Beds were comfortable. Property was beautiful, Lake access was prefect during the heat wave. We had kayaks delivered for our stay and were prefect for exploring the Pond. I would highly recommend this property to friends and family

Perfect. I have rented 3 times w On the Water in Maine.

Redwood Cabin was perfect. The location on the lake is in a cove so quiet and perfect for swimming. The cabin had everything needed. Beds were comfortable. Deck was big with lots of seating. WIFI worked great and Tv had Netflix and others.

We have rented through On the Water in Maine several times over the years. Every time has been a pleasure. Your site is easy to navigate and explore the homes. The availability calendars are so handy and always updated. Signing up to rent online is simple and straightforward. When I have reached out by email or phone, I have always had excellent service and follow up. The range of properties provides choices for all types of groups and varying budgets. Renting from On the Water, you can feel confident that the properties are exactly what you hope they will be based on photos and descriptions. Its so nice to know that you have someone to call if you have a problem or question. Also, the communication leading up to the rental is excellent and very helpful.

It is an amazing property. Being right on the water was so beautiful. The yard is very large, so you can enjoy the view, and its breathtaking. The home is modern and updated, and has so many comfortable living spaces. The kitchen and bathrooms are clearly new, so they include all of the desired amenities. Hard to pick a favorite feature, the home is so inviting and lovely. It was just my husband and I, and it was wonderful. But obviously for a family gathering or a couple families traveling together it would be ideal. There are plenty of bedrooms and lots of extra living space to spread out.

Team was so accommodating to work with. Represented the cottage perfectly.

We had a wonderful getaway at the Norton Pond Cottage. House was perfectly appointed and very comfortable. Well situation on the pond, literally, swimming, kayaking, fishing (with license) and bird watching was steps away. What a perfect week!

You folks were very pleasant and easy to work with - and very responsive to all our questions.

We loved the property! It was perfect for a three generation family gathering. The view from the top floor was fabulous and I loved the sunrise every morning from the upper deck! Private yet open backyard and nice stairway to the water - kids loved playing in the water every day. And very easy access to local needs - restaurants, groceries, etc. In our minds a perfect Maine getaway cottage.

The team, and Paige in particular, were incredible this year. They helped us find a perfect place to stay in a prompt, friendly, and efficient manner!

The Golden Owl was a total delight to stay in. We spent incredible evenings having a glass of wine and watching the sun set over the water on the relaxing back deck. Our favorite feature of the property was the stunning gardens the landscaping, flowers and gardens are meticulously kept and cared for and it was fun to walk around and admire the different flowers in season. Having perfect weather helped too.

Wonderful team. Prompt, responsive, thorough. Love working with them. They make planning a stay in a rental property a pleasure. Professional vacation management, offered with courtesy and a smile.

We absolutely loved this house. Thoughtfully and tastefully designed, every space offered something unexpected and wonderful. The lake access was perfect, the dock and firepit made for a fun and easy stay. We would return here without hesitation. It's a very comfortable, very charming house. The owners have thought of everything a visitor could possibly want or need.
