Point Place, Cozy Cabin a Short Walk from the Beach

A quaint, cabin on Lowell Point just a short walk to the beach awaits! This cozy cabin sleeps 6 with 2 bedrooms, each with a queen and a twin bed, 1.5 baths, full kitchen, cozy dining area and living room, outdoor grill and wonderful access to nearby trails. Located 100 yards from the beach and Caines head State Recreation area, this home is the perfect place to explore Lowell Point and spot marine wildlife!

Both bedrooms are upstairs and are identical in layout, with one queen and one twin bed each. One full bathroom is located upstairs featuring a stand up shower with the half bath located downstairs on the main floor. The kitchen is fully equipped with pots, pans, dishes and utensils, a dining room with seating for (6) and outdoor seating with a propane barbecue grill are more perks! A note that this property does not have a dishwasher or washer and dryer in unit.

Located 100 yards from the beach and Caines head State Recreation area, this home is the perfect place to explore Lowell Point and spot marine wildlife! Guests have access to the entire home.

Located just 2 miles outside of downtown Seward in the seaside community of Lowell Point, this unique home is within walking distance from beach access and local hiking trails. You will need a vehicle to get around and to the home from Seward. Taxis are typically readily available. We highly recommend a car.

The home does not have an on-demand hot water heater. It is a 50 gallon tank, so hot water may run out during your stay. If so, we ask guests to patiently wait for the tank to fill and heat back up before using again. Also, the heat in the home is powered by a Toyo stove - so you may smell propane or gas from time to time, which is normal. Wood stove is not accessible by guests. Wood stove is off limits to guests.

The home does not have guest laundry or a dishwasher.

As a free resource, my husband Clay, a local boat captain, and I are here to answer questions or help you book the perfect excursion to explore Seward and the surrounding Kenai Fjords National Park. We offer discounts on many tours to our guests.

Kylee, Clay and the Seward Vacation Stays team are excited to host you, share their favorite Alaskan adventures, and ensure you have the very best stay in Seward.
We do encourage guests to refrain from cooking fish inside the property; however, we've provided a grill for outdoor cooking of your catch instead. We do not allow processing of fish on property.

The cottage is heated and features a kitchen and 1.5 bathrooms, and there's space to spread out with 2 bedrooms. Guests can enjoy a Smart TV and stay connected with free WiFi. Other standard amenities include a coffee maker, an ironing board, and a travel crib.

This property is an amazing true Alaskan experience. The location is as good as it can get. Knowing that we were renting an older home kept our expectations realistic. The modern amenities of wi-fi, TV, and the plug in fans & heaters provided kept the atmosphere very comfortable. The hosts were great to work with being both attentive and responsive. The visits from the friendly neighbor hood dogs were a bonus treat for our kidsz

Excellent location; cozy stay

We really enjoyed our 6-night stay and were super happy with Point Place. It was the perfect location for us being close to hiking trails, the beach, and being within 2 miles of downtown. Very welcoming family-friendly neighborhood that felt safe and authentic. Excellent hot showers, well-maintained yard, and well-stocked with household essentials. The host was excellent and super friendly with offering recommendations. Our bucket-list trip to Alaska included 2 halibut/rock fishing days, and a day on the River for sockeye. Appreciated our cozy place after such big adventures! Definitely recommend!

Rustic Fishing Village

The inside was clean and well cared for however the neighborhood was not well kept. No washer & dryer access as this is behind a locked door and no dishwasher. The downstairs heater was quite noisy. The location was quiet and had easy access to the beach and a walking trail.

cabin country

We had a nice stay overnight. The cabin is nicely updated and had warm heaters in both bedrooms keeping it as cozy as you wanted it. The short walk to the inlet bay to see the sunrise was amazing! Highly recommend getting up early to view it. Thanks for the complimentary coffee/hot cocoa and tea in the cupboard!

Great location

Property has everything you’d need! Loved having luggage racks in each bedroom. I know it’s a little thing but most VRBO’s don’t have dressers which is totally understandable but then luggage goes on floors. Very walkable to beach, Millers Landing cafe and hiking trails.

The house was a bit more rustic than we were expecting. The beds were comfortable and the house was clean. We were expecting a view of the water but the property is very wooded and several blocks from the beach. Our hosts were available and helpful.

Fantastic location away from the crowds!

This rental was perfect for our week in the Seward area. It is just a short drive from the busy tourist area, and a world away -- quiet, dark, peaceful. There's a nice beach just a short walk away and a longer trail on the bluff above. The house is a nice combo of old and new, with beautiful old floors, wood furniture, cool interior painted designs, and a modern well-equipped kitchen. Nice spot!

Short walk to the beach and trails, gorgeous location!

The home is adorable, cozy, well planned out, bright, and well decorated. Lots of spaces to cozy in and be together, or have quiet time alone. It has everything one needs, as well as additional itrms like a first aid kit, shampoo/conditioner, body wash, extra blankets, and a fully stocked kitchen (including some basic food items - pepper/salt, oil, etc). Heaters in each bedroom, as well as in the main living room/kitchen area. I enjoyed walking to the nearby beach in the mornings to watch the sunrise (as well as sunsets), exploring the nearby hiking trails, and generally having quiet time in nature. The home is a short distance away from the hubub of downtown Seward in a quiet neighborhood. I highly recommend staying at this home and would happily stay again when back in Seward.
