About this property

1 Block From The Beach!

2 Bedroom, 1 Bathroom, Sleeps 4

Conveniently located halfway between the Seward small boat harbor and Seward´s historic downtown. Both are within a short walking distance along a coastal trail that is just one block from the front door. The trail is part of the original Iditarod Trail. Very clean and private with 2 bedrooms, a full kitchen, wifi, DirectTV/DVD, Washer and Dryer. Adjacent to our other vacation rental unit (VRBO Listing #971600). This is great for someone who is wanting to have a rental for 8 to 10 people, as the two units are side by side. Owned and operated by a 4´th generation Seward, Alaskan.

Nice house very nice location

Its a decent house... had all amenities and good utensils in kitchen. Loved the location... its literally a block away from the beach side and beautiful view...and very close to the harbor for cruises. We enjoyed our stay and convenience from this location.

kitchen items

the only recommendation we had was the pots and pans were not non stick which made ours meals very hard to cook and eat. would have loved to have dish rags to wash dishes. had to end up using our wash clothes from the bathroom.

Fantastic place

We stayed for two nights and this was perfect. Plenty of room for a family of 4 with 2 teen boys. Enough space for everyone, able to do some laundry, very comfortable beds and a great location. Kind of brought in the middle of the old Main Street by the sea life center and the marina. Easy to take a walk with gorgeous Resurrection Bay views to either of those areas. Highly recommend this location for a stay in Seward. .

This was a very functional house. We enjoyed the two bedrooms, real toilet, hot water, and especially the washer and dryer! The house itself was sparsely decorated and there was no outside space in which to enjoy the surroundings. The kitchen was somewhat dirty with broken blinds and the stove had something in it that smoked when we tried to bake. Overall though it is an easy walk to both parts of town, all the tours, and the waterfront. The neighborhood is quiet and parking is easy.
