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.

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.

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

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.

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!

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 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.

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.

The team at On the Water in Maine is professional, responsive, thoughtful and thorough. Could not ask for better property managers - everything was wonderful and minor issues were handled promptly. With an unexpected 2 day heatwave, the team even offered window AC units and box fans, which we declined. They were not needed with the natural AC from the ocean breeze.
Property
The living space invites relaxation in every room. Favorite is watching the sunrise with a cup of coffee on the stone beach...or maybe listening to frogs and watching the fireflies in the back yard? A glass of wine or beer at the secret private beachside picnic table? Or maybe reading in the living room while watching the biggest flatscreen ever (the wall of windows looking out onto Monore and Sheep island - schooners, fishing boats parade by)? Or maybe watching the meadow change over from lupine and roses, to lillies... It was ALL good. There were literally days where we planned to go someplace but decided it could not get any better than Holiday Beach House, so we stayed home.

Staff was very easy to work with and responded quickly to my inquiries. Megan was my primary contact and was wonderful.

It was a very comfortable house, fully appointed with every comfort of home. I loved the deck best. One thing I noted was that there wasn't any kind of "guide book" to local restaurants and attractions. (Usually when I have rented vacation houses the hosts leave take out menus, local park guides, and/or places that are dog-friendly in the area.)

We loved the house, location (on the water) and amenities. Our favorite feature was the living/dining/deck area and all the windows. We also loved being able to bring our mini-cockapoo. We were disappointed the grass wasnt mowed and was uncomfortable to walk through.

I had a very positive overall experience. Paige and Megan were of great help. Paige helped me navigate the payment system flawlessly. Megan was right there when I had difficulty opening the door upon our arrival. The team was A+

The stay was excellent. We had a great time. The house was super clean, the amenities were great. We brought things that already provided which is a good. Fishing in Lermond pond was great. The gas fire place warmed up the cool nights and the grill was a huge plus. All in all it was great vacation. The upper bedroom view was exceptional, night and day. One area of concern to pass along to the owners. The front step up into the house is very high and a bit tilted down to the right. Possibly a handle placed next to the door in order to grab a hold stepping up and in. My 78 Y.O. Mother in law had only that concern. Thanks again.

Very efficient and easy to work with the team. The online tools like e-signature, etc. makes the process so much simpler. We had an issue with a smoke alarm that was beeping and had to have some of the team come to the property. They were incredibly freindly and good humored, in spite of the fact that it took a long time to determine the issue. The smoke alarm that was beeping (low battery) had been placed in a dresser drawer! They laughed it off and didn't make us feel like we had wasted their time. Great customer service.

Absolutely fell in love with the property. It was the perfect size for us and we loved the layout and decor. It was comfortable and the kitchen was well stocked....important as my bf is a chef, so we cooked a lot. The access to the lake was fantastic and it was peaceful and quiet. The only thing I would change is the trees started to shade the dock around 3pm. So, we couldn't sunbathe after that time. Not a huge deal, but it would have been nice to have access to the sun after that time. Overall, I would give this property an A+. Just fantastic!
