About this property

Beautiful Mountain Top Cabin with amazing views and private peaceful setting!

Welcome to the Mountain Top Cabin, a two story cabin in Seward, Alaska. Situated on a secluded hilltop and nestled among towering spruce and hemlock, this cabin affords spectacular views of Exit Glacier and the surrounding mountains. The cabin is on a private lot that borders the Chugach National Forest. A covered deck with seating is attached to the cabin for soaking in the awe inspiring views.

The main floor features an open living room, dining room, and kitchen area. The living room is well-appointed with beautiful leather furniture and satellite TV. The fully equipped kitchen includes an electric stove, refrigerator, microwave, toaster, coffee maker, dishes, and cooking utensils. The bathroom has a shower, toilet, towels, and hair dryer, as well as a washer and dryer.

A beautifully crafted cedar sauna with a changing room is also located next to the cabin to help you relax after a long day. The sauna is heated with a push button diesel fired stove.

We are located a short 10 minute drive from downtown Seward, where you will find the historic downtown area, the Alaska SeaLife Center, the small boat harbor, shopping, restaurants, deep sea fishing, whale watching, glacier viewing and much more.

Breathtaking Views

This cabin was perfect for our family of 5. Close enough to Seward to easily drive in/out. The views at the cabin are beautiful. We enjoyed sitting outside around the campfire, laying in the hammock and taking in the sights. The beds were comfortable and this cabin was a great start to our inland Alaska trip.

Annual get-away with friends.

This little cabin was perfect for us three women who were just getting away for our annual spring launch into summer here in Alaska. We used the firepit every chance we could and listened to the many birds in the area while chatting and enjoying the spectacular view. The beds were very comfortable and the whole cabin had a cozy atmosphere. We would definitely come here again.

Super cute place but had some issues

We came up for our pre-wedding honeymoon, my 23rd trip to AK. I've stayed in tents for 14 days on hunts many times so I keep my expectations pretty low. The cabin is very clean, super well equipped with tons of amenities. The sauna is why I booked it and it did not disappoint. Very secluded and private. Amazing views. And the cons: We kept getting a random but very strong smell from the bathroom. Couldn't figure out what it was. The nightly trips down the stairs to use the bathroom was a chore, could use a honey pot upstairs. Water was quite brown with a lot of sediment, inside and from the filtered spigot. And could definitely use blackout curtains in the bedroom for those that can't sleep with masks. Overall a nice place, just needs a few things to make it amazing.

Small cabin just outside Seward. About a 15 min drive to the harbor; 20-25 min to Exit Glacier area of the Park. Views into the park were lovely and the property itself was clean and well organized.

Home is very clean and comfortable. Very well stocked. Very private property with incredible views. We loved every minute of our stay and will definitely return if we are ever in Seward again. We saw a bear in the neighborhood and the northern lights one night.

Beautiful views from authentic cabin

The cabin was perfect for our family and felt like an authentic Alaskan cabin that had all the updates needed for a comfortable stay. The seclusion and views were wonderful. The sauna was a special treat after wet and chilly days. The only downside was the long winding drive up to the top, making the distance to Seward a little longer than expected. Overall, it was a wonderful stay!

Great location

Cabin was great for our three day stay in Seward area. Beds were very comfortable, cabin was warm, clean and quiet. Only downside was it was foggy all three days and we didn’t see the awesome view. We did enjoy watching the eagles for hours.

Majestic view of Mountain. Rustic, week-equipped cabin.

We loved staying at your cabin. The view from the deck was amazing. Loved playing cards outside on your beautiful picnic table. Enjoyed the sauna every day. Cooked some great meals at your place. Thank you for having a well equipped kitchen.

Excellent views, interesting cabin

This is a unique property with an exceptional view off the rear deck & the large picture window. The cabin itself is very well stocked with anything you’ll need and has some unusual design features, such as: (1) A custom built Sauna that word very well (2) A separate 12 volt lighting system, which we didn’t need but I assume is there if grid power was lost (3) Lots of exposed EMT conduit instead of more typical electrical design. I assume that the Owner is a skilled tradesman, perhaps INEW or OE.

Scenery is beautiful!

The cabin was well equiped with more than I expected, like laundry detergent, softner, shampoo, conditioner and soap. The view was spectacular! We saw a moose and her calf a couple of times on one of the roads heading down from the cabin. Just a few minutes from Seward and many hiking options available! We would stay again!

Beautiful View and nice Cabin

We just had a couple of days here but it was a spectacular view of the mountains. We ate out both days so didn't use the kitchen at all but seemed well stocked. The sauna was great, the outdoor area had everything and the cabin is comfortable. Road going up to cabin is very dark if arriving late, there are some large pot holes that could do some damage to a rental car. Not the owners fault but should know. Would definitely return again and suggest to others however. View is worth it!

About the host

We are three Alaska Native siblings, born and raised right here in Seward, Alaska. Our parents originally owned this property, and after many years of caring for it, they passed it on to us. Today, the three of us manage it together as a family. We live just down the hill from the property and enjoy many of the same traditions we grew up with hunting, hiking, fishing in Resurrection Bay, gold mining, and exploring the surrounding mountains.
