About this property

Located in the original 1913 Seward town site. Charming and quaint, it has everything you want from a Alaska summer vacation rental.

After a full day of sightseeing, touring, fishing, hiking and shopping, you can relax in our comfortable and fully appointed home-like setting.

Conveniently located in downtown Seward you are steps away from why you came to our historic and exciting town.

Views from Upstairs loft and from your dining room. Step out our front door for a breathtaking view literally a few steps From Resurrection Bay, walk to the Sea life center for an afternoon of discovery, or visit Brown and Hawkins for home made Gelato and fabulous fudge.

If you like to walk, follow the waterfront towards the Marina or stroll towards Lowell Point for an afternoon of Kayaking or a try at Catching a King or Silver Salmon at the nearby Waterfall.

For those who like to get the kids out of the house and relax, send them to the local library, the skate park or to skip rocks at the waterfront all within walking distance.

If you prefer to read and relax, sit on the back deck or settle into a comfortable chair and enjoy a book. Games and videos available for the kids.

For Dinner, invite friends and cook dinner on our back deck BBQ or in the fully appointed kitchen. We have what you need from pots, pans, to plates and utensils and a Gas BBQ out back.

Fresh linens await you upon arrival and there is no cleanup required when you leave-Just no dirty dishes, please.

We hope you enjoy our home away from home, it is a paradise retreat we are proud to share!

Six to seven is most we accommodate ideally.

Late Season Family Celebration Stay

Again, Tanguy has aided us in creating great family memories and a comfortable stay. He worked with me in figuring out how to accommodate us and I truly appreciate it. Mostly everything we needed to cook and get cozy was provided, the view as always, soothing and the location unbeatable.

Seward

Property was perfect for what we needed. Location was excellent and within walking distance to downtown and harbor. Even though it was an older home, it was very functional and kitchen had everything we were looking for.

Seward is Best Place if you love Alaska Wildlife!

Two couples rented this house for 5 nights before boarding our Celebrity cruise. We flew into Anchorage and hired SalmonBerry tours to take the 4 of us to Seward, stopping at the Wildlife Conservation Center, for lunch & Bear Creek Weir. Our friends stayed upstairs with their own bathroom and TV. We stayed downstairs with a bathroom adjoining our bedroom. It's an old house that has been mostly redone. The kitchen was perfect for our needs & had good supply of pots, dishes & seasonings. The dual coffee maker used kcups as well as ground coffee & owner privided nice selection of k-cups. Nice dining room & living room, tons of games, books. The dresser in downstairs bedroom was filled with pillows and the closet filled with an extra mattress. The host supplied shampoo, conditioner & body wash which was great. The location is perfect since we didn't rent a car. We could easily walk to restaurants and a health food store. We walked a short distance to the SeaLife Center which we loved and appreciated the discount the host gave us. We could also take free shuttle from the SeaLife center & it even took all our luggage to the cruise port when we left. We walked to the harbor & Safeway..but it was a longer walk. The absolute highlight of our stay was our 8 1/2 hour Wildlife cruise with Major Marine & we appreciated the discount our host provided. Very fun way to experience a bit of Alaska!

Why they chose this property

My family and I really enjoyed the serenity and majestic beauty of resurrection bay as well as the friendly people, fishing and wildlife.
The cottage has an unexplainable, simple charm that makes it difficult to leave. Worries melt away while you enjoy yourself with friends and loved ones. Board games, anyone?
