Super clean and nice house

We only stayed for an overnight so we could do a glacier cruise, but the house is great and it would’ve been awesome to stay there for a few days and enjoy the amenities. Ryan was super easy to work with.

Phenomenal family friendly base camp for Exploring Seward and Kenai Fjord

The property was clean, well appointed with spices, pots, dishes and utensils, and indoor parking. Plenty of blankets, towels, shampoo and conditioner supplied as well as trash bags, ziplocks, etc. All three bedrooms had queen beds, with lovely bedding, blankets, etc. Shower was amazing and had heated floors.

Seward sanctuary

Great stay. Close enough to Seward but out of any tourist traffic. Beautiful home. Great yard. Updated kitchen and bathrooms. Everything works! That’s a rarity these days. Owner always answers his texts right away.

A spectacular house close to Seward

We spent three wonderful days at this well appointed house just 9 min away from Seward. The house is in Bear Creek, and is conveniently located to all attractions. It is situated next to a stream - a great location for a walk/run and with bald eagles soaring above us. We have enjoyed our evenings sitting out in the porch, or around the bonfire set up in the backyard. The kitchen is well equipped, allowing us to make great meals during our stay. The owner is very responsive. We highly recommend staying here!
