Guest Reviews

Excellent. Super communication. Found everything to be as described.

The property was well situated on a beautiful pond with clean clear water. The house was comfortable and very adequately stocked with kitchen items and recreational equipment both indoor and out.

The property on our week-long stay was just as advertised: well-maintained and clean in an attractive and convenient location.

I had a good experience each time I called the agency, on the initial booking, and later when I had some questions. Everyone was knowledgeable, and friendly. The communication via email was clear, and timely.

We found the property's location exceeded our expectations. There is no photo that can do justice to the beautiful view of the bay. We had plenty of room for five adults, yet the cottage feels very cozy. The decor is lovely and reflective of the coastal style.

Maine is our favorite vacation destination, and finding the right vacation home in the right location for our family is very important to me. I worked with another agency for our last vacation and there were glitches in their system which complicated the payment process and other issues which I found to be frustrating. The reservation, contract and payment process with On the Water in Maine was easy and painless. Contact by phone and via email was easy and all interaction was professional and appreciated.

This rental was perfect for our multi-generational family (grandparents, parents and their children). My husband and I (grandparents) had the loft (3rd floor), which was large and spacious and easily accommodated our needs. I was especially appreciative of the very comfortable leather chair and ottoman situated by a large window which overlooked the beautiful ocean view. It was the perfect location to read or to sit in quiet reflection. The queen size bed was very comfortable, and screened windows allowed cool evening air and the sound of the ocean into the loft each night. Our two granddaughters (ages 8 and 3) shared a wonderful children's room with twin beds, while their parents each had a bedroom located in the same hall on the lower level (king bedroom for our daughter and son-in-law, and a double bedroom for our daughter) (1st floor). Both of these rooms overlooked the ocean and had direct access via sliding doors to the lower deck. In addition, we enjoyed the upper deck off the living room (2nd floor). The dining room with a very large table and benches allowed our entire family to enjoy meals and time together. We loved the direct ocean access to explore, the privacy and location, and the spaciousness of the home which was the perfect size for us.

Very accommodating when it came to the storage of our boat during our vacation.

The rental was the perfect size for our needs and we enjoyed the fire pit for roasting s'mores. The view frkm the master bedroom was beautiful and quintessential Maine!

The folks at OTWIM are always very helpful and dedicated to making sure out stay is great. It's well worth going through the agency as opposed to direct owners as all the facilities are ready when you walk in the door and leave. They are very contentious about your stay

We love the house. Fairly new construction and just a Very nice country feel. Grounds are wooded and good for little kids 'exploring'. Looks like a new dock was put in since we stayed at this house 2yrs ago. Would definitely rent here again.

Love the way the history of the house was shared with me. You were honest and did inform me that this was a "destination" house.

Gorgeous view of the bay from every point in the house. Landscaping is immaculate and so relaxing. Love the modern style of the home from the hard wood floors to the high ceilings , clutter free space and high end appliances. Love the art work in the house. Loved the property and house but the location from Booth bay, Portland, Camden and Bar Harbor- so far away. Even though these cities were less than 60 miles from the house, the drive to them took 90-120 minutes due to the hilliness of Maine. Even Rockland was 30-45 minute drive even though it was only 15 miles.

On The Water in Maine was efficient and thorough in booking and checking-in.. They know their business.

AC Hopkins is the old general store and the interior of the house reflects that. The kitchen is beautifully equipped for the cook or baker. The upper floor bedrooms have the nicer views of the water. Unfortunately, the main floor waterfiews are obstructed by the neighbor's large tree. We expected and desired a better waterview. The house is near the town commons which is quintessential Maine beauty with a small harbor with a swimming dock and sailboats. There's also a playground and basketball courts. We thoroughly enjoyed our stay.

very helpful people

beautiful place

Tiffany and Justin, the Owners of On the Water in Maine, are always great to work with. They whole rental process is incredibly efficient. Always a quick answer to any questions or concerns.

We love Crockett's beach cottage. We have stayed there for 5 years and look forward to returning next year. The perfect spot to relax!

Your agency feels like you're family, from the very first time I called you five years ago, you have been nothing but accommodating, caring and friendly. I don't think I could deal with anyone else.

Rosemoor,specifically,and the Sprague property generally, are the most fabulous locations in Maine. The friendliness of people on the property, the beauty of the surroundings, the beaches and, Oh, the house at Rosemoor - perfect location, perfect amenities, down to the library of books, the bountiful supply of kitchen needs, the comfort of the beds and couches - it's all breathtaking.

With 4 years experience renting through On the Water we have nothing but positive experiences to report. Service has always been courteous and efficient.

The house is modern and in splendid condition. Easy access to the lake with a dock and a float, a great view southward, quiet neighbors, a nice porch and outdoor picnic table and a gas grill Also a stone grill out side and adequate lawn space for the children to run around and do cartwheels.

Everyone was extremely helpful.

I loved the cottage it was clean, and very cozy!

We have rented with OWM for several years and are continually impressed with their timeliness, helpfulness and attention to detail.

The view was spectacular and the description was accurate and detailed in terms of what we could expect at the property.

The agency was very easy to work with.

The view from the second floor deck and family room was fantastic. Perfect for painter and sketch artist.

Justin and his staff at On the Water in Maine were a pleasure to work with. The website was easy to navigate and it provided excellent pictures of the rental home and clearly described the property. All correspondence to reserve the property and the check in/check out information was handled efficiently. The staff was always kind and helpful throughout our stay.

We loved our week at the Atlantic Sunrise. The cottage is beautiful, immaculately maintained, and well stocked with everything you need to feel at home. The view looked like a postcard. We rented a boat for the week and enjoyed making sunset trips to Port Clyde to have dinner. The kids had fun playing in the backyard by day and roasting marshmallows in the fire pit at night. It was an amazing getaway for our family.

We loved the house and property. It was quiet and comfortable. I would have liked to learn more about the house and its history.

Working with your agency was great. It was easy to rent and the paperwork was clear.

I liked having 3 available bathrooms and a nice kitchen in the house. The location is great with many adventures available. This was the first year we went whale watching out of Bar Harbor and it was amazing. Let guests know to dress warm! The city pool in Belfast is free and a great way to wrap up a day.

You can read my past reviews of OTWM! I'm afraid it's beginning to look like I'm a paid promoter - which, of course, I'm not! I can't say any more than I have in the past about the agency and all the people involved. They are simply the most professional group I have ever dealt with and you will have absolute peace of mind if choose OTWM to assist with your vacation plans. They are honest in their claim of 24/7 attention to any problems that may arise during your stay, they are always friendly, helpful and patient during the rental process and you can trust the description of the properties they offer. Again, this group knows how to make your vacation worry-free. They are a great group of professionals!

We have rented Atlantic Sunrise four times over the past year for a total of 34 days. We enjoyed absolutely each and every day of our stay. As I have noted in past reviews, there is simply nothing that I don't like about this property. The house, the setting, the amenities are all lovely. A wonderful vacation experience.

The folks at On the Water were excellent and very professional. I was very satisfied with their service.

The location of the cabin on the shoreline of a cove in Lake Megunticook was superb; restful, secluded, great swimming, lots of loons and bald eagles. Overall, the cabin is in good shape. The windows and slider do not work well and need replacing. The only other caveat is the mice. The Decon mouse bait stations were not very appealing. You have to make sure to keep all the counters and food preparation areas clean and all the food put away, or you will have little visitors. I would definitely rent this cabin again, my family had a great time!

On the Water in Maine was a pleasure to work with. They were professional, efficient and anticipated things that would help us make the trip smooth. I have rented with rental by owner agencies (VRBO and Air BnB) and this was so much better.

Great location, cute cottage. We could walk to town rather than driving and worrying about parking. but we were not in the middle of the busy town when we wanted to relax. Whoever decorated that place has a great eye; it could have been in a magazine, and had lots of lovely touches.
