About this property

1 Block from the Bay!

2 Bedroom, 1 Bathroom, Sleeps 5 to 6

Also known as Captain's Quarters. 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 and a BBQ. this unit also has a futon style couch that folds flat and could sleep one to two more people. Bringing the total to 6 people. Adjacent to our other vacation rental unit (VRBO Listing #738304). 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.
Our prices include all fees. No hidden fees.

Great location in central Seward. If you are traveling with campers this place is great! Just a block from the RV park and close to the playground. Spacious for a family of 3. All the amenities you need for a weekend away.

Quaint little spot - as advertised. Not much space for a family of four but worked great for our brief visit in Seward. Bed wasn’t too comfortable; otherwise, no complaints. Very nice experience.

Cute, cozy, clean, and comfortable!

We found this unit to be so cute and cozy. Beds are comfortable, and provided us a good nights rest. Location is perfect, quiet neighborhood and short walk to beach. Fit four of us perfectly.

Relaxed, comfy stay in Seward!

I spent two nights here on a work trip. It was very clean, well-maintained, a block from Waterfront Park, and close to everything else. All the appliances worked well, it was stocked with coffee and tea, and the bed and couches were comfy!

Nice rental

We enjoyed several days here in Seward. The propoerty had enough beds for the entire family and we hung out in the living room at night relaxing and watching TV. Super conveniently located, just a quick walk to restaurants downtown, to the ocean, and in the opposite direction, to the marina where we took a boat tour and saw some amazing wildlife.

The property is small. The couch is not very comfortable. The washer and dryer are fantastic. All in all, this place is okay. It could use a little updating.

Comfortable Stay

We enjoyed our night at this property. The location was perfect for whatever a guest would choose to do in Seward. We centered our visit around a cruise of Kenai Fjords and we could reach the small boat harbor quickly. Consider this property for your visit to Seward!
