This home HAS IT ALL!
Submitted: September 2, 2012
Stayed: June 2012
The owners take great pride in this home and it shows! Prior to our arrival we were kept well informed on what to expect when checking in, what to do in the area including where to find the best lobster (delivered live to our home I might add!) and any questions we had were answered in a very timely manner. Upon arriving we found the home to be in perfect condition, very clean and well kept. Music was playing softly and a special treat was waiting for us in the kitchen. The home is much larger than it appears in the pictures. The master bedroom and bathrooms especially are quite spacious. The pantry and kitchen had everything we needed and more! Everything is newly renovated and of high quality. We enjoyed opening the windows and letting the cool ocean breeze flow through the home. The smell of the wild roses and ocean air is pure joy. Words cannot describe the spectacular view and pictures do not do it justice. The children and I loved seeing the lobstermen working on the water right in front of the house! There were may boats to watch and in the afternoon many sailboats came through as well. The children loved exploring the rocks right in front of the home on the waters edge. The water was so calming and the surf was safe for them to play. We all loved evenings gathered around the outdoor firepit. There's a generous supply of firewood ready for use. Falling asleep with the windows open listening to the sounds of the waves coming in and smelling the sweet air was heavenly. It was such a special time rocking my baby to sleep that way. In the mornings we enjoyed a morning walk coffee in hand of course along the private path which followed the waters edge to the private beach where the kids enjoyed "crabbing" in the tidal pool. We would definitely stay again, counting the days until we can return and having "Seas The Day" dreams in the meantime. Truly the best family vacation we have ever taken being a family of 6 with 4 young children. Many sites and places to visit nearby including Pemaquid Beach, Pemaquid Point Lighthouse, Round Pond, Boothbay Harbor area for shopping, The Cubbard Cafe for sticky buns that are to die for, The Anchor Inn for dinner, Shaws for the true seafood experience, Granite Hall Store for goodies for kids of all ages including penny candy and ice cream, Fort William Henry, breakfast at the Seagull Shop, Hardy Boat cruises, day trip to Monhegan Island and so much more. Truly in love with this area. This home is a gem and has it ALL!!!

The house is a perfect place to vacation. The location and views from house and deck were spectacular. There are amazing sunsets and of course lobsters to enjoy there. Everything was clean and well maintained, and the owner was very helpful. The area is beautiful and relaxing. We had a wonderful time and would definitely recommend staying here.

A fabulous Thanksgiving spot!
Submitted: December 15, 2011

My family loved spending Thanksgiving weekend in this fabulous home. The view is fabulous - at high or low tide, and even at night (the stars were incredibly bright). We added lobster to our Thanksgiving meal (delivered, as promised, to our door) - that's what the Pilgrims ate, after all. The next night we had more lobsters delivered and prepared them outside, and enjoyed the firepit, too. The home was just as advertised - and clean and well-appointed. The owner was attentive and helpful. Thanks so much!

We spent the week of 9/10/11 at "Seas the Day". It was everything that the owner promised it would be. The views of the breaking waves and sunsets were spectacular. We especially appreciated Bill (the owner) keeping in close contact via email on places to see, things to do and the price of lobster (11 lbs {9 lobsters} steamed and delivered for $35 before adding a tip!). As Bill said, they were cheaper than hot dogs that particular week. The house was spotless, airy, spacious and well maintained. We walked the trail by the rocks every day and discovered some memorable beach combing items that we will use for a diorama. All in all, a fabulous week at a terrific place.

What a magical and special week we spent in New Harbor, ME. The owner was more than helpful from the moment I first inquired about the property. He sent me so many wonderful tips and ideas to make our vacation even more special. We loved the location. Quiet, peaceful, and restorative. The house was fabulous. I slept in the small upstairs bedroom and it was probably one of my favorite places in the whole house. The kitchen is a cook's dream. We cooked many meals that week and used the outdoor gas grill several times as well. We loved the Pumpkin colored hardwood floors, the wood stove in the kitchen, the fireplace in the LR and used both pretty well everyday. The beds were super comfortable with nice linens. The furniture was comfortable and the deck got a lot of use even though we had several days in the 30's with high wind. It didn't stop us from sitting out there enjoying the great view and fabulous sunsets each evening. We clamored around on the rocks and explored the whole area. We visited Eastport, Bar Harbor, Bath, New Brunswick, Camden, and many of the smaller little villages all up and down the coast. We went whale watching in Bar Harbor and enjoyed breakfast at Moody's diner two mornings. The Cupboard Cafe was a great place for breakfast and we really enjoyed the Pemaquid Point Lighthouse. We also visited the Point Quoddy Lighthouse furhter North. All in all a great trip, wonderful accomodations, and a very accomodating owner. The only warning I will give you is the rust in the water due to the granite coast in ME. We washed white clothes and they turned orange. The owner has told me he will soon be adding a type of well system that will take care of that. He left us 4 large containers of water in the pantry that we used throughout the week for drinking and coffee. A wonderful experience and we whole-heartedly recommend this property.

Owner's Response: Jean, Thank you for the review, sorry about the water, we drilled a new well March 1 2011. The old well was only 40 feet deep in porus soil that allowed vegetation to seep in and was on an iron vein. At 57 feet we hit solid granite and continued to drill to 180 feet. We also beefed up the filtration adding two 120 gallon rentention tanks. Now the water is totally clear! We hope you return soon!

This was our first VRBO experience and it was a very positive one. The owners were very responsive and informative throughout the process. We had great vacation with time split between just sitting on the deck soaking up the view and enjoying the local sights and activities. A real bonus to have a light house just up the road. The attention to detail with how the house is decorated and equipped made it feel homey and comfortable. Am now recommending this property to friends.

We had a wonderful time! It is hard to beat that view anywhere! The bobbing lobster buoys, the crashing waves, the birds, and the most spectacular sunsets immediately take you far from your everyday life. This is a perfect vacation spot. Lots to do in the area. Sailing was such fun.
The house was great, very comfortable and clean. Bill and Bon take care of everything to make your stay stress free.
We would not hesitate to recommend “Seas the Day” to anyone. We hope to return again and again.

August 2009 Stay
Submitted: July 28, 2010

my wife and i have been renting Oceanfront properties on the Maine coast for the past 7 yrs- so we have some experience. we rented this property in August 2009, and never sent in a review. The location is great and the house is clean and bright. What we did not like was in the master bedroom where there was a bed, dresser, and one night table- not a single chair, bench, or place to put down a piece of clothing. we set up the ironing board to solve that. the living room furniture is vinyl. the kind one would find in a basement rec room. Sticks to you legs if you wear shorts. disappointing in our view and not appropriate for a house with this view. This house could be much more.
Owner's Response: Obviously this renter is not in agreement with all the other renters. Yes the custom made furniture is a high grade vinyl as this is a rental propoerty and renters tend to be very hard on furniture spilling liquids even red wine.To set up the ironing board to hang cloths on the renter had to go into the walk in closet where most people hang cloths.I know, a unique concept. Since the renter left we have added more furniture such as a kitchen table and chairs.

There are no words to describe this home. The color scheme, art work on the walls and the deck. Mom and I loved sitting on the deck watching the lobstermen and their boats. I would love to know how they pick the names on their boats. We enjoyed the sunsets at night and the cozy fireplace .This home has it all. We enjoyed going down to Pemaquid Point. We took a ride up to Camden and went out sailing on a large schooner for a few hours. Weather was beautiful for sailing. If you enjoy kayaking, I recommend Maine Kayak. Go out with a guide and enjoy the sights. Don't miss Shaw's Restaurant. Great lobster and steamers. Mom and I did "Seas The Day" everyday we were here.

What a getaway! Seas the Day provided a perfect vacation to "get away from it all". The house has wonderful appliances and is well equipped to please everyone. ( It even has lobster decor!) I was absolutely speechless when I saw the beautiful view. The fire pit is the perfect place for a nice chat or to end the night with a spectacular bonfire. The purple, orange, and even green sunset against the WWII sub-house is amazing. If you are looking for beauty, a relaxing vacation, and sticky buns from up the road, you will fit in perfectly here. I am bringing my family back for many years to come!
