This cabin had everything you could want and is VERY well stocked! We cooked our freshly caught salmon on the grill, enjoyed coffee by the creek, and truly felt comfortable and cozy relaxing in this gorgeous cabin. Look no further and reserve it!

Nice cabin

Nice stay at the cabin. The shower/tub arrangement was not very good for senior citizens like us---no grab bars and risky to shower. Good private location and near but not too near to Seward.

Beautiful spacious cabin in the woods close to Seward. Property owner was friendly and responsive. We had a bull moose feeding around the cabin one evening during our stay. Bedroom in the loft has a great view of woods and mountains.

Beautiful log cabin!

Very clean, well equipped, charming log cabin in a great location! We stayed over there for 4 days - 5 guests including two kids. It was the perfect place for us to stay while exploring Seward. Bruce was very helpful and responsive. Yes. only one bathroom, but it wasn't a problem for us at all. Would love to come back!

Beautiful logs / open concept with no bedrooms.

Great all around. No privacy since there are no try bedrooms. Quirky shower could be easily improved with one shower certain instead of 2.

Seward Log Cabin

We enjoyed our stay in the woods outside of Seward. The cabin was stocked well with amenities and had good TV and internet service. Communication with property manager was prompt. Outdoor areas weren’t exactly what we had expected so we didn’t utilize it. It was a great base for our fishing day trips.

Peace and quiet

Four adult lady friends enjoyed the cabin for two nights. Two beds up and two beds down were comfortable. A ladder, rather than staircase led to the two upstairs beds. Everything was tidy and clean. The stove on the lower level was easy to operate when we needed a little bit of extra heat. The provided wood also allowed us to also enjoy the warm, cozy atmosphere of a wood stove fire. Thanks for a great stay!

Clean open concept space

Very clean, new-feeling log cabin. Very much open concept so don't expect any private bedrooms (two beds in the main floor, two upstairs), but worked well for our family of 4, could have slept many more. Great kitchen and great views of Mt Alice which was the highlight. So much to offer in this area near Seward - check out the beaches near this VRBO, the kids have a wonderful time finding and skipping rocks and seeing the ships go by. Would stay again.

Enjoyed the property and amenities. Would recommend larger hot water heater as we had to stagger our showers. Also as commented from others, suggest the shower set up be changed.
