Perfect for Us

We stayed here for the July 4 Mt Marathon Race. Three of us ran in the race, and this place was right on the race course and so, Perfect for Us! We've stayed here in the past, and it is a super clean VRBO. The hosts are the best.

Location!

I have been Seward many times. I loved this spot because we could walk into town for dinner and coffee at breakfast time. It was fairly quiet. It was also the perfect spot to run or bike from! The townhouse had a fun, consistent theme.

Trip to seward

House smelled like cigarette smoke and musty. Beds were miserable. Bed liners made it uncomfortable and noisy everytime we moved. Not a friendly neighborhood. We felt like we we not welcomed.

Very cute and clean space. Nothing too fancy but fully functional. It had everything you need. Very short walk to downtown Seward. It was more than enough for our 1 night stay. Did not really communicate with the hosts simply because it was not needed. We would stay here again if we return to the area.

In 1995, with a two-week old baby, we drove the Alaska Highway and began our Alaska adventure. We lived in Anchorage for thirteen years. After several years of visiting Seward for recreation, we have been able to live and work in this beautiful town since 2009. We enjoy showing off this incredible part of Alaska. Many years and three more children later, our adventure continues.
