Wonderfully peaceful visit. Easy parking right out front. Modern appliances, super clean and comfortable with plenty of space. Very responsive owner leading up to stay.
Salty Sam's Cozy Downtown home is exactly what it says. Do not let the size fool you, as this little home is the perfect size for a couple trying to escape the hustle and bustle. Lots of thoughtful amenities are provided and location couldn't be better.
Salty Sam’s was the perfect home for four family. We enjoyed our stay at this darling retreat. Everything was in perfect order and we had a very comfortable stay.
Had a great stay. Comfy house, great location and everything you could want. Enjoyed sitting in front porch in the am sipping on coffee and planning the day. Great 3 night stay
Perfect location for your Seward adventure. Property is perfectly renovated but has a retro vibe. You can walk to a multitude of restaurants and shops downtown. It was a very enjoyable stay. Can highly recommend.
Such a lovely place for 3 women to stay. Clean, neat and creatively decorated in ocean decor! The large kitchen and quaint bathroom appear recently updated. We also enjoyed sitting on the cute front porch during the evenings. Location was walking distance to the beach and downtown Seward. We would highly recommend this cozy home!
