A very efficient simple process making the booking online with friendly helpful staff when the need arose to call by phone.

Stayed for 9 nights in September & could easily have stayed longer. This is a very comfortable cottage exactly as in the photos in a quiet residential area away from the main road. Sitting on the deck watching the boats to & fro to the harbour was a delight.

On the Water in Maine's website is simple to navigate. I have rented from this agency 4 or 5 times and have never had a problem.

Lovely, clean property. Bedrooms are very spacious and comfortable. Great house and an easy walk to town, restaurants, etc. Plus the board walk is just across the street.

Accommodating and very eager to find a property you'll be happy with.

Loved it - the view out the window, the space in the house - nice and clean and sparse. Loved location to Rockland and other places.

Your agency was very pleasant to work with and did not skip a beat. Very smooth. Thank you.

The property, Watch Point was absolutely beautiful, serene and very comfortable. The trails were wonderful to explore the acreage, the beach very nice. A very quiet piece of property. WE were very pleased.

Working with On the Water in Maine was incredible. Excellent communication, ease of check in/out. Thanks so much for allowing pets, our dogs our are family!

Our house was perfect for us (a couple), and would be well suited for a single family with maybe two children, but no more than that. We wished there was another bathroom, but understand that in these charming older homes, often there is only one. King bed was super comfortable with nice quality linens. The kitchen appeared to be well appointed, but we did not cook during our stay. Super nice hardwood floors, tastefully decorated. The wicker chair in the living room was very nice looking, but VERY uncomfortable while sitting in it for anything more than a half hour or so. New, more supportive cushions would be a nice consideration. The burlap drapes are a nice rustic touch, but some blinds or shades for privacy would be a great addition, especially on the front door. The heat and air conditioning worked perfectly as did all other appliances. Excellent property for the price!

We have dealt with On the Water Maine twice now, and recommend you to all our friends. We recommend renting Bar Island Cottage in particular, though we're a little worried about giving away our secret :-]

The cottage is perfect. It's right on the shore, the tides are amazing, the silence is healing, and the Milky Way is brilliant at night. It's very well-equipped, and despite being a little out of the way, we found everything we needed right nearby (including the Shop & Save and Dorr Lobster). We think it would be great if canoes or kayaks were included. We know they can be rented some distance away, and at extra expense & work, but it would be wonderful to have one or two in the garage, for use at renters own risk.

Justin was great and very helpful. I felt comfortable calling with any questions or concerns.

We had a fabulous time; the house was open and airy, just the right size for 2 couples. The view was beautiful....spent alot of time on the deck and down at the firepit at night. The beds were the most comfortable ones we've ever slept in at a rental property!

On The Water in Maine provided the confidence when choosing a property for vacation online. All our question were answered and check in and check out procedures were clear and precise. The rental manual was a great tool that added to the vacation being so successful.

Everything was so well thought out for guests. Beautifully appointed with a fabulous view. The kitchen was well stocked with all the necessary items for great meals. High end features throughout made the stay feel luxurious.

Total class. Ben at On the Water in Maine is awesome when you check in, helpful. Our second rental with you and everything is easy, no surprises, no problems. We wouldn't think of trying any other agency if we are looking in Maine.

Beautiful house, very roomy, great private location, listen to the sounds of the sea in every room, watch the sunrise from you bed, see water birds swim by, a seal, see an eagle fly, and lobster fishermen checking on their pots. All this yet close to town and a stones throw away from Mt. Battie in a state park where you can hike to the top or drive there and see fantastic views.

On the Water in Maine could not have been easier to work with. We created a problem by locking ourselves out while tubbing on a Sunday, and they could not have handle it better or more efficiently.

Everyone hopes for a true Maine experience when booking lodging via the NET. This is it! If the number of beds meets your needs, DO NOT pass on this property. From the dramatic driveway, to the stone fireplace, to the modern well-stocked kitchen, to the huge windows and deck overlooking the sea 20 feet away, to the hot tub, to the heated bathroom floors....remarkable! Great value. Make a great decision and choose this property.

One word about On the Water in Maine: Wonderful

Amazing views, location is great, not in walking distance of towns, but short drive, very private and quiet, kitchen very functional and fully stocked with necessities, bathroom amenities very adequate. beds are comfortable, television and wifi access exceeded expectations. you can hear the ocean waves while sleeping at night...loved it.

On the Water... is the best agency I have EVER worked with.

Great water views. Very comfortable cottage.

Our experience in working with On the Water in Maine was very positive. They were always helpful and friendly. We knew that they were available should we need them (we rarely did) but they never bothered us. We felt like it was our own little paradise for two weeks. We would use them again! I thought their contract was very through and fair to both parties. The notebook provided with the house was clear and helpful. If I were lucky enough to have a place in Camden that I wanted to share with others, I would definitely work through On the Water With Maine.

Our stay at Camden Casa was most relaxing and enjoyable! What a memorable spot for a sisters' reunion and birthday celebration. The setting above the rocky beach could hardly be more beautiful, with windows all across the back of the house through which one could enjoy the view. The tides were constantly changing as were the colors of the water and sky. The sunlight sparkling on the water was beautiful... a great spot for photography! We also enjoyed the sounds of the waves, birds, and the bell out on the water. Very peaceful! Also had a nicely landscaped, well maintained yard. The house itself is well arranged, comfortable, and amazingly well stocked. We lacked for nothing when cooking there. Of course, there are many great restaurants nearby as well. Camden has a small but very high quality farmers' market, which we were happy to find open in September. We enjoyed sitting out on the deck whenever it was warm enough. (Never saw one mosquito!) All in all, I'd definitely recommend Camden Casa to a friend! Thank you for sharing with these water deprived Mid-Westerners!

Everything was great! Easy to work with,friendly,honest.

Loved the kitchen/dining area the most, it was where we all 6 congregated. The view was great! Had hoped to spend some time out on the deck and waterfront, enjoying s'mores, but never got home early enough, or it was raining. Loved the decor ... lots of interesting wall hangings, etc.!

On the Water in Maine was a pleasure to deal with. They were informative and professional. They were quick to take care of any issues we had while we were there for the week.

Juniper Bank is a wonderful home to spend some time in. The views of the water are amazing! Every morning my sister and I got up early to watch the sunrise over the water. Just spectacular! The house is spacious and its really nice to have several living areas to enjoy. The kitchen is very well stocked and everything you need for cooking meals is there. The house is located in a quiet residential area and we enjoyed the peace and quiet of the area.

We didn't rent through you, but we found your suggestions for day trips in the property book very useful -- really enjoyed the Young Lobster Pound as well as other restaurants you mentioned.

We stayed at Our Song for 6 days the end of September. It was a wonderful experience. We loved the cottage and the location -- we could enjoy the lake and peacefulness of the lakeside as well as easily reach all the interesting sites on the ocean. We lucked into gorgeous September weather which made kayaking and canoeing fun -- I even swam to the raft -- and had the added attraction of changing leaves. Everything about the cottage was 5 star. It is decorated beautifully down to the smallest detail -- but still very homey and comfortable. They have everything you could possibly want in terms of housewares (we enjoyed the barbecue as well) and in terms of outdoor equipment -- bikes, kayaks, a canoe, etc. Many different places to sit and hangout outdoors as well. I can't imagine a better way to enjoy Maine.

I have to say, I have rented at least 1 - 2 vacation homes every year, and by far, On The Water in Maine was the best I have ever dealt with! They were so accommodating, as were the owners to our needs. Anything I needed, they jumped to help with. I would definitely use them again when we come back to Maine as well as recommend them to anyone I know traveling to Maine.

Rip's View was amazing!!! As soon as we pulled into the driveway and saw how gorgeous the location was, we knew it was going to be heaven for the week!! And once you walked inside, you couldn't help but feel like you were home. It was very cozy. It was nice to wake up to the trees blowing and the water below every morning.

On the Water in Maine was exceptionally well organized and helpful.

Cute house, more than adequately appointed and furnished. ..accessibility to Rockland and the peninsula as well as Friendship, Cushing and nearby towns make it especially desirable.

Working with "On the water in Maine" was very easy. Any and all questions that our party had were quickly and professionally answered.

The view from the house, sitting on the patio and beach access were the features we enjoyed the most. The house reflects a lot of the personality of the owners with many photographs of various family members over the years.

very kind and helpful. Our experience could not have been better. Thanks for being detail oriented people and having a heart for service!!

Great view, nice and quiet,Love the decoration. in style with the coast of Maine and very tastefully done. We appreciated the comfort. Cottage was very well maintained. Thanks

On the Water in Maine was awesome - no complaints whatsoever.

The porch is the best part!
