Great place
The location was nice and quiet. We hoped to spot a bear who was recently seen but no luck. We enjoyed the wood stove and fire pit. My only suggestion would be to have lighting at the dining room table. It was a lovely surprise to be greeted with fruit and wine!

This was one of the most beautiful properties I have stayed at. It's well integrated into nature and encapsulates the spirit of wild Alaska. The cabin was plenty spacies with two bedrooms, a very well stocked kitchen (utensils and appliances) even for 6 people, a commodious living area and a lovely porch. The house has a huge backyard and easy access to a creek with sweeping views of all the mountains around the cabin. Ian was very thoughtful to leave a lot of extra sheets, towels, cleaning supplies, coffee pods, bear spray, fruits and even a bottle of wine! Ian was also generous to share his personal stock of firewood that allowed us to have a lovely campfire in the yard. We didn't have any issues with a wifi as well. Scott was super communicative and responded promptly and left a of suggestions for a variety of local activities and attractions prior to the trip. Overall we had a fantastic experience staying at the Alska View Lodge and I can't recommend it enough.

Great location
House was perfect for our family. It had everything we needed. We really appreciated the welcoming bottle of wine, fruit bowl and vase of wildflowers. Close to Seward, Exit Glacier, and Chugach National Forest. We enjoyed the creek behind the house and even had a black bear walk through the backyard!

Fantastic home base for Seward!
After several nights in 1 room cabins elsewhere in AK, it was really nice to spread out a bit and be able to do laundry. To be greeted by a big bowl of fruit, flowers and a bottle of wine, along with a note, was such a nice touch. The home is very well stocked and cared for, and it’s location just outside of Seward worked great for us. We did the Harding Ice Field hike followed by dinner at Resurrection Roadhouse the first day, then a Major Marine boat tour followed by dinner at Gold Rush Bistro the next day. The Safeway is conveniently located b/n the home and Seward, with an attached liquor store and an adjacent gas station. We had a great stay!

Great quiet spot!
While visiting Seward this was the perfect house to get ready in to head out to do sights in Seward OR just hang out for some downtown. Quiet and clean. Host was great with communication and clear instructions with the house.
