Very cute and clean space. Nothing too fancy but fully functional. It had everything you need. Very short walk to downtown Seward. It was more than enough for our 1 night stay. Did not really communicate with the hosts simply because it was not needed. We would stay here again if we return to the area.

Alaska road tripping for 2 weeks!

The property was perfect for the 4 of us. The only thing missing was wine glasses. We found some at the hardware store and left them there. : ) We walked to town and down to the harbor many times. Make sure and play dominoes with the little animal dominoes... its a hoot!

Perfect for Us

We stayed here for the July 4 Mt Marathon Race. Three of us ran in the race, and this place was right on the race course and so, Perfect for Us! We've stayed here in the past, and it is a super clean VRBO. The hosts are the best.

Family visit to Seward

Right on the edge of town but still with easy access the downtown and everything Seward has to offer. The home had plenty of room for our family of 5. The house is clean and well maintained. Hosts are very friendly and easy to communicate with. Nice view of the mountains from the balcony as well (when the weather is clear enough!).

Lots of blueberries (as advertised)! Everything about it was very well thought out, with great attention to small details. For instance, there was a hook available for every person in the bathroom, and five towels for our five guests! All appliances were working and the entire place was extremely charming. We would definitely recommend this place to everyone!

Cute, comfy and convenient to shops and activities in Seward. We were able to park the car and walk to things we wanted to do, Kenai Fjord Tours, Sea Life Center, walking trail, shops... etc. Very clean and comfortable. Plenty of kitchenware. Easy check in & out process. Quiet area. Nice stay, would stay again if we ever find ourselves in Seward in the future.

Excellent place!

I brought a friend who was visiting Alaska down for the weekend and the property couldn’t have been better. Very clean, tons of space, centrally located! It’s such a short walk down to the water or downtown strip and the view even from the dining room table is pretty spectacular. Hosts were responsive and got us everything we needed to know well before our trip. Definitely recommend :)
