Great stay in the Seward area!

We stayed at the Alaska View Lodge for four nights while in Seward with my wife and three adult children and had a great time. The location is wonderful - 5 minutes to Seward makes it close to all of the activities there, but removed enough to feel out on your own a bit as well - out enough we got to watch a mama moose and her two calves grazing right in the backyard - amazing! We also saw salmon a five minute drive away at the Salmon Weir. Very clean, well stocked (in fact, extremely well stocked!) kitchen - how many VRBO's have a meat thermometer? Beds are great, two full bathrooms are also great. Great communication, very helpful host with suggestions for the area etc. We would definitely stay here again if we return to Seward and it were available. Great stay, great host, great property, great location!

Beautiful, peaceful home surrounded by nature

We loved our stay here away from the summer hustle of Seward. Ian was very communicative and provided excellent recommendations. The kitchen was fully stocked with everything needed to cook and we appreciated being able to use the washer/dryer and wood stove, which included plenty of wood ready to use. Highly recommend Ian’s home for anyone visiting Seward. We would definitely return!

Great Location, Great Host!

First off, as soon as we booked, our host Ian sent us a fantastic curated list of all his recommended sights and activities near the property. It's clear he's very familiar with the area and has great recommendations for adults and families with kids of all ages. On the day of our checkout, Ian also informed us one of the neighbors reported an injured brown bear in the area and to be cautious when leaving. He really is attentive and looks out for you. The property is only 10 mins from downtown Seward making it very convenient to pop into town for whatever you need, yet feels very remote. And just beyond a low row of trees in the back yard is Bear Creek, which my family loved exploring with beautiful views of the mountains in both directions. It's also only a 20 min drive to Exit Glacier. This house was perfect for our stay in Seward and we couldn't have been happier!

Great cabin in Bear Creek

We loved our stay at Ian’s cabin. It was a spacious, clean and well appointed 2 bedroom cabin, with lots of room for our family of 4. Seward is a very beautiful part of the world and it was so nice after having full days of activities, to return to this homely cabin in a very tranquil setting. Would highly recommend.
