Seward Visit
This property was perfect for my group of 4, husband, sister and BIL. The location was great for our itinerary. The furnishings were comfortable and clean. It was great to have the kitchen facilities when we ate in. Everything was as listed in the summary of property. I especially liked that the bathroom towels/wash clothes were plentiful! And wow! That view out of the front window was amazing.

The best
Doug’s place was perfect!! Great location, super clean, and Doug was wonderful. We left our 84 year old mom so we could do an all day excursion. Doug not only let me put him down as an in case of emergency person BUT he also came by to check on her and visit with her while we were gone. Talk about above and beyond. Mom loved the visit. You can’t go wrong booking with Doug.

Post relay relaxing in Seward
Our group helps organize and volunteers to staff the annual 230 mile Alaska Relay from Mirror Lake to Seward by NxNW Relays. This Vrbo stay was our post relate place to relax and complete wrap-up in town. Its location was convenient and near the top of the hill on 2nd, offered a view of the area, as well as a well comfortable living room and bedrooms. The kitchen had everything we needed for cooking our meals.
