    • Very pleasant experience! I would recommend The Downtown Seward House to family and friends! The owner even accommodated us with a special request on the day of check in. Beautiful house in a great location. We stayed in July of 2008.

    • This place was adorable and very affordable. We have traveled extensively abroad/Europe and would consider this one of the nicest places we've stayed for a venue of its' kind! It was a great location: A short driving distance to the boating areas and walking distance to shops and other sites of interest, including fishing. It was very clean, beds were very comfortable. My husband and I slept on the hide away bed in the livingroom. I was dreading the idea of a hide away, so was pleasantly surprised that it was quite comfortable, with a higher end mattress. We were sharing the home with my daughter/son-in-law, grandchildren, my son-in-law's family. The cottage easily accomodated all. Having a full kitchen was a great change from all the eating out/traveling we had done during our trip. Very charming--I will definately stay there next trip and will recommend to anyone.

    • My family and I recently stayed at the Downtown House in Seward and had a wonderful time. The cottage is very charming, comfortable and has a nice, relaxing atmosphere. Its convenient location to the many activities that are available is a real plus. It is within walking distance to the Sea Life Center, the waterfront, the park and playground. There is something for everyone. My family and I look forward to returning to this lovely cottage in the future.

    • We had a great time in Seward and all six of us were very confortable at The Downtown House. We could easily walk to the downtown shops or the SeaLife Center and we could watch activity in the bay from the front windows. Thanks for helping us make arrangements for our Alaska vacation!

    • Our family thoroughly enjoyed our stay at your home. We had many out of town guests with us who had never been to Seward before. It was such a joy to bring them down and have them stay at a home that is nestled in the heart of this charming town and only a stone's throw away from the beach. We couldn't have asked for a better location! The home was charming and comfortable and we were able to accommodate all of our guests for the night. The premises was very clean and well- maintained. Thanks for all the amenities and the attention to detail. We'll definitely be back.

      "Thank you for your assistance with our family trip to Alaska. We enjoyed our stay in the Seward Downtown House and our personal attention was greatly appreciated. Even though our fishing trip was cancelled, we had a great day in Seward. We visited the Sea Life center and later, the girls went on a tour of the downtown shops while the boys enjoyed a hike at Exit Glacier. After dinner, we enjoyed a spirited card game at the dining room table."
