Exactly what we needed

We truly enjoyed our stay here. The bed was very comfy and we both slept well. The water in the shower was perfect! And having a complete kitchen was great! We would stay here again if we make it back to Alaska!

What a great property for our state in Seward. You are close to town. Also, as an added bonus, there is a salmon weir very near the house and it was fun watching the salmon jump. Everything you need is provided at the property. Incredibly well stocked kitchen. Very comfortable living room room and eating area. Love having the washer and dryer as well. Highly recommend this place.

Nice kitchen

Nice spot. Plenty of room for the three of us to retreat after a busy day. Large kitchen! Host was quick to respond when I asked for a set of sheets for the third person and also fixed the bathroom door (it wouldn't close). You can hear the folks and TV from the apartment above.

Alaska country home

The host was very responsive helpful with telling us about the area. Where to shop for food, what to do that interested us. They have a great spot to BBQ if you choose. We rented the lower apartment it had everything you would need to cook if you chose to. Clean friendly and fun. Walking distance to Bear Creek watched the salmon run the creek. Very quiet location.

Quiet location just outside downtown Seward

Pleasant basement apartment with one bed and two futons. Kitchen looked well-appointed (we didn't use). Washer was broken but owner brought us a new one, which was appreciated! Owner offered hiking suggestions and bear spray. There was a smell of cats in the entry areas, but not in the unit itself.

Good location, good hosts

Our family of four stayed here for several nights in July. The location was great-quick easy access to everything (you do need a car). The hosts responded super-fast and accommodated any requests. The kitchen is very large and fully equipped. Having a washer and dryer was very nice. This is a ground-level apartment, and you can hear people above you. This mostly wasn’t an issue, but there was one morning when there was a lot of foot traffic at 5:30 am which woke us all up. I’m guessing this was unusual (?). Furnishings/decor were pretty basic, but this apartment did meet all our needs and is a good home base for adventures in the area.

Good value; comfortable space.

4 adults, although 2 slept outside in their Sprinter van. Unsure whether the small sofa bed would be comfortable for adults, but should be fine for children. There was an extra mattress in the closet which may make it more comfortable. There were some large stains on the sofa. The main bedroom bed was very comfortable.Nice large, well equiped kitchen. The shower is small, but adequate. There were only 2 bath towels and washcloths in the bathroom. We did not request more as we had extra in our Sprinter van. All in all we had a very enjoyable stay and would stay here again. Elyssa was very responsive to any questions that we had.

Pros: Elyssa, the owner, was extremely helpful and responsive throughout our stay. The property is a good size and offered at a very reasonable price. There is a massage chair in the entry room. Great treat after hours of kayaking! It's located very close to Bear Creek Weir — we enjoyed watching salmon swim upstream and jump! Having a washer and dryer on-site was a huge convenience. The kitchen was well-equipped, allowing us to cook meals during our stay, which we really appreciated. Minor cons: There was no Wi-Fi connection during our stay, possibly because the unit is on the lower/basement level. We used our mobile data and personal hotspot instead. You can hear movement from the unit above. Most of the time it wasn’t an issue, My husband spoke with the family upstairs when a little child was running in their room one evening. They were very understanding, and there were no issues after that.

Overall this was a nice clean place to stay. We were worried about the heat, but it warmed up quickly and stayed warm. The only reason for the 4 star rating was the living room setup. It was hard to watch TV and the shower was a little small. Overall if met our needs.

This was a great downstairs apartment for our two-night stay! My parents took the bedroom, and my husband and I took the fold-down futon. The bedding was clean, and we were all very comfortable. We didn't cook but appreciated and utilized the coffee maker, microwave, refrigerator, and washer/dryer. Plenty of plates, cups, and cutlery for us. The shower worked well, and the host made sure we got a hair dryer for our stay. The apartment was a good size, and everything that we used worked well. The host provided excellent communication leading up to our stay, was available for questions during our stay, and offered lots of written suggestions for the area. Very close to Seward. We did hear the upstairs guests walking around, but it didn't bother us at all. Thank you for a lovely stay!
