Great location, great stay!

House was perfect for our group! Great location close to town, the house was extremely clean , well stocked and the 3 bedrooms were exactly what we needed for our multi generational group of 5. All loved the house and the added bonus of the board games gave us something to do on a rainy day.

Seward stay

Location was perfect, the place was super clean but I felt the rent was really high for one full bath
Stayed 3 nights in Jul 2018
Response from VrboOwner on 31 March 2020
I'm sorry to hear you felt the rent was high. Our description clearly states that the house has 1 full and 1 half bath. Considering that hotel rooms run $375, we feel our price is fair for an entire brand-new house with three bedrooms, full kitchen, living & dining room.

Property is perfectly located within walking distance of all the great ships and restaurants downtown. Stunning views of the ocean on the deck side and Mt Marathon from the living room. The house was spotless and well equipped. We cooked a nice meal together and had everything we needed. Also appreciated all the little extras like fresh coffee beans, shampoo and conditioner. Will absolutely stay here again.

Met our needs while in Seward

Had what we needed for our vacation stay. Would have liked a few rugs throughout the place to soften the echoes and warm the floors. Other than that, place was extremely clean and perfectly located. Within walking distance to everything and had covered parking.

We saw glaciers, whales, and sea otters!

This property is a minimalist dream, clean lines. You can see the mountains from every window in the house. We were in Seward to see glaciers and Marine animals, check. We saw orca and humpback whales. At one point there were a group of humpback whales bubble net feeding. It was amazing!

Wonderful cozy house!

Our stay was lovely from start to finish. Heather and John's house is squeaky clean, new and cozy. It's close to the center and downtown and importantly the lovely coffee shop located in the old church. While much was closed for the winter, the kitchen was well perfect for our meals and holiday celebration. Upon arrival we found a lovely holiday centerpiece on the dining room table and poinsettia in the living room. Such a nice touch! And of course there's the amazing view of the mountains from the dining area and deck as well as from most bedrooms. Spectacular! We highly recommend this property and hope to return some day soon.
