About this property

Alaskan Log Cabin



A vacation trip to Alaska isn't complete until you've stayed in a real Alaskan Log Cabin.

The large diameter logs were harvested in Haines Alaska and trucked up to Valdez where Serendipity Log Works hand peeled and scribed these logs into what I wanted.
Take a walk up and down the hand crafted all traditional mortise and tenon joinery stairs made by Precision Timberworks here in Seward.

Filled with live plants and stunning artwork from all over the world.
Enjoy the outside fire pit with your family and friends. Cook your days catch on the BBQ and enjoy a large kitchen to make your memories and meals.
Soak in a claw foot tub, (circa early 1900's) the bracket was made by a famous local Artist James Minden who used salvaged metal from the 1964 Great Alaskan Earthquake. Or walk into a stunning tile walk in shower with pebble floor.

Construction was completed in the fall of 2016. After this it took almost two years to do the finish work and the fine detail work of sanding and staining logs, adding local art and handpicking furniture to make this house as comfortable, cozy, warm and welcoming as possible.

Absolutely Wonderful Stay!
This is an exceptionally clean, comfortable, and enjoyable property. It’s spacious and inviting. Windows are gorgeous with great views of forest and mountains. Lighting is bright and cheery. Furniture, furnishings, and artwork throughout the entire property are beautiful. The open-concept layout of the kitchen, dining area, and great room was a highlight for us. It was our main gathering area. We really enjoyed this space for meal preparation, dining, and conversation. The kitchen is well-equipped with very nice appliances and dishes. The laundry facilities were also a pleasant surprise. They include top-notch appliances and are conveniently located near the main gathering area; doing the laundry was actually enjoyable. The bedrooms and bathrooms are clean and comfortable with luxurious linens. The property is conveniently located just a few minutes up the road from Seward. Communication with Julie, our host, was easy and her response to our messages was always prompt. Our stay at this beautiful property was absolutely wonderful!

Awesome. Everything as expected and more
I looked a long time for a nice place on the Kenai Peninsula. So many properties described as "authentic " or "rustic" really just meant "not that nice." This place was awesome. It was just me and my wife though this was a 3 bedroom. It was worth every extra penny. Close to Seward. Convenient enough for Soldotna. The owner had thought of everything. Beautiful decor. All the needed amenities. Roomy. True to the Alaska spirit. Clean. New. Spacious. Comfortable. Really....i can't say enough.

Family vacation in Seward Alaska
Our family had a wonderful stay at the cabin, with its generous windows and views. Meals were easy to prepare with the well-stocked kitchen. Washroom supplies were generous and the shower and tub design are great. The artwork is beautiful throughout. My daughter loved feeding the Stellar’s jay who visits the back porch. Very comfortable holiday cabin. Highly recommend!

Our group comprised of 3 couples loved this beautiful cabin. You could tell much thought and love went into every detail. We were impressed and fascinated with the Owners artwork. The location was great; tucked in the woods not far from the city.

A great place to stay for the Kenai peninsula
The cabin is amazing and very well appointed. We enjoyed watching eagles soar over the south balcony and feeding the Stellar Blue Jay peanuts on the back porch. Beds, bathrooms, and kitchen were all great for the 5 of us. It was nice to be out of Seward, but still close enough for conveniences. We felt spoiled to be in such a beautiful area and then able to come home in the evening to this fantastic cabin.

Nicest place we have ever stayed in
This home is like a resort lodge. Every detail is thought out and provided, location is great, and artwork throughout is beautiful. Has nice view when clouds are not consuming the surrounding mountains. This is a great place to use as home base while in Seward.

Stunning Cabin Experience
This is the second time we’ve had the opportunity to stay here. This time is was six friends staying the weekend in Seward. The cabin is phenomenal, with artistic treasures everywhere you look. From the kitchen equipment to the bathroom necessities Julie has thought of it all. I highly recommend the cabin for anyone who wants a great Alaskan experience.

Solitude in Seward
This is one of the best places we’ve ever stayed. We absolutely loved it here. This was the first stop for us for our Alaska trip and it was sure hard to leave it for our second portion of the trip. We loved how it was away from the hustle and bustle of downtown but not too far away (maybe 10 minutes). It was the perfect distance. We loved coming “home” to relax nestled in the woods with the view of the mountains and a glacier! It really was surreal. And Gus, the Stellar Jay, was the cherry on top. He even let me feed him by hand. The place was immaculately clean and really felt like home with all of the artwork everywhere. We had a snag when we left with a traffic accident on the main road, and the owner informed us of links to refer to on the status of it so we knew when we could leave. We fell in love with Seward and hope to come back someday and will definitely be staying here again if we are blessed with a return visit. Thank you so much for getting our Alaska getaway off to a great start! Ps, I left a book behind and am hoping someone was able to enjoy it as much as I did :)

Above and beyond!
This accommodation was by far our best while in Alaska and perhaps the best to date. It felt like a home away from home. As wonderful as the home looks in pictures, it is even more amazing in person! The home was beautiful and spacious. The heated floors were a treat. The kitchen had great cookware and accessories. There were plenty of plates, cups and silverware. The beds were very comfortable and the living room areas were as well. Loved the bathrooms! One quote from our stay was “boy, they sure think of everything.” We loved taking in the artwork inside as well as the spectacular views outside. We also enjoyed the deck and fit pit. The location was great; close drive to Seward. Thank you for sharing your home with us!!

About the host

Hosted by Julie

Host profile image
Born and raised in Alaska. I started working on commercial fishing and tug boats when I was 16 and received my USCG Captains license when I was 21. After many years at sea I began to start missing land and purchased the property when I was 30 and started the transition.

Why they chose this property

This property is an extension of me and who I am. The cabin has been decorated from my experiences in life and I try very hard to create and not purchase what everyone else has in their homes.
Staying here you'll enjoy a unique, clean, cozy, private, and beautiful cabin.

What makes this property unique

This private property is a the end of a quiet subdivision.
