We haven't had any problems in the many years we've rented through OTWM. We usually get the locations and the weeks requested.

The view and cottage are wonderful. We love the wooded road leading to the home and the accessibility of the rocky coast and seeing many birds among the trees and water fowl.

On The Water in Maine was professional and efficient leaving nothing to chance. Anything information we needed was already at our finger tips as soon as we arrived and nothing was left for chance. It was a very good experience.

It was an incredible week and the weather cooperated for most of it. The property is beautiful both inside and out. The addition of the hot tub was great especially in the cooler October weather. The house feels lived in but without the clutter of the owners belongings taking up space. Easy access to town but remote enough this time of year to feel like you're alone in the woods. A great experience and couldn't have been better!!!

This was our second year renting from you. Again it was a good experience. Thank you for bringing the garbage bags and the ceramic top cleaner. The stove top really needed it! It's a shame that there wasn't any there for previous renters.

Rockcroft is a very nice property. Favorite features - being right on the ocean with active waves. The wild life was an unexpected plus, a pare of Eagles hunted almost daily right off the shore. There were also Osprey, Loons and Seals and lobster boats.

This house was by far our favorite rental since we have been coming to the mid-coast. Wonderful large, open spaces and ever-present views of the bay. Great privacy not only from Rte.1 but also the houses on either side. We enjoyed the proximity to Camden without the extra driving we had from Rackliff Island. And the bald eagle that flew low over the deck late every afternoon was a real treat. The water in the house is extremely "soft" from the Culligan treatment making it very slippery in the bathroom. Anti-slip mats would be welcome for the floor and tub.

We love Cockcroft! The view is spectacular, and the peace and quiet the property provides is a welcome change from city life. The home is well equipped, although without air conditioning it can get stuffy when the weather turns warm. All in all, we love it!

We love coming back to Rockcroft and have continued to do so for three years now. We were delighted to see the owners had made some improvements to the property on our May visit this year. The new floor in the bedroom looked very nice and a lot of the casement windows that were having issues as of our last stay had been fixed. It also appears that they got a new door from the bedroom to the deck. The flowers they had out this time around the property looked very nice and inviting. It looks like they may have power washed the house as well.

SO ROMANTIC!!! The beautiful stone fireplace, the hot tub, the king size bed and the amazing views from it, the window seat, the claw foot tub and the privacy of the property all were incredibly romantic. We loved that the deck was shaded in the afternoon by the property trees. We often laid on the comfortable lounging deck chairs and watched the full moon rise. There are 3 televisions on the property and we did not turn one on even once. The views commanded our attention. AMAZING!!!

This was our third time to stay at Rockcroft. The home is equipped with every thing we need, and very well maintained. It's hard to say what features are our favorite--however, the view, location, and living accomodations are at the top of the list. Hard to ask for more.

From the moment you pull in the drive and see the Bay through the windows you feel the stress of the world leave your body. This home is wonderful. From the views from the living area, the infinity hot tub, the heated bathroom floors and the magical feel of the sitting window in the master, one may never want to leave. The home is well appointed in every way. The beds are wonderful! listening to the waves every night when we went to sleep and waking up to the sunrise every morning right outside the window....ahhhhhhhh. We LOVED this home!

Spectacular view! Love the large porch and large dining tables, both inside and out. Master bedroom was very comfortable although the closet arrangement was odd. We had guests with us and they had no closet at all in the Guest room. Master bathroom and shower were very nice - great supply of hot water. Very small gust bath but stall shower worked well. Kitchen had the basics but could use more pans. The disposal did not work well and the sink did not drain properly. BUT the location and ocean view made up for those deficiencies . Didn't watch much TV but they worked well - really appreciated the easy to use remotes.
