Cabin in the Woods

The property was exactly as specified with plenty of room for our family. Loved the setting in the woods - felt like we were at our cabin back home. The hot tub along the creek was so peaceful. Great location - close to everything in Seward. Definitely would stay here again.

Terrific stay in Seward area

Our family of 6 adults and 2 children stayed at the Stoney Creek Guest House. The location was perfect for the activities we had scheduled in Seward: a salmon fishing trip and a cruise In Resurrection Bay. We enjoyed the hot tub, sauna, the beautiful creek and the awesome deck. Bald Eagles flew over our heads the first night we were there. The house is well equipped and the hosts are very responsive. Thank you for a memorable stay!

There were 2 couples staying, we had plenty of room to eat Sleep and be happy.

Comfortable, host was very accommodating. Town was close by 12 min. to restaurants, bars. Fishing and hardwarstores in case you needed anything. Comfy and cozy, with hot tub and sauna use at the property area. Well worth the stay and comfort.

Great Placd

The Guest House was perfect for our group of 6. We were in town for 4 days of fishing. The location was great. It was an easy drive to the harbor and restaurants. The house was clean and ready go when we arrived. The hot tub was a life saver after long days of fishing. Highly recommend staying if you arr visiting Seward.

A Great Cabin Near Seward!

A clean and well-appointed cabin 10 minutes outside of Seward. Check-in was friendly. The cabin was warm, large, and had working WiFi. The highlight was the hot tub facing an Alaskan forest river. All-in-all, a great stay!

Awesome trip!

Enjoyed 3 wonderful days at this cabin as we took in all that Seward had to offer. The neighborhood was quiet, the cabin was clean and very comfortable for our group of 4 adults and equipped with all we needed. The views were great especially along the creek bed. We would definitely stay in this cabin again if we’re lucky enough to visit Alaska again.

What a wonderful surprise!

This rental was a beautiful surprise. It is larger than we expected, with two levels of bedrooms, washer and dryer, spacious family room and great deck overlooking the mountains. The hot tub was a huge bonus as was the creek loaded with salmon. It was close to town and SO MUCH BETTER than renting hotel rooms!

We had a great time in Alaska. This property had plenty of room for our group of 8. Right across from a creek where we saw lots of eagles. Location was great; just a short drive to Seward. We would stay here again.

Great place to stay with lots of family. Lots of room for everyone and a nice place to be . The only thing is we thought the hot tub was attached to the cabin and it’s not . So remember to bring shoes you can wear to and from the hot tub

Great stay at the Stoney Creek Guest House

My family and I had a wonderful time at the guest house. Stoney Creek Lodge is located about 6 miles out of Seward. The scenery is spectacular and it's only about 2 miles to the Exit Glacier turn off. The accommodations were extremely clean and well stocked with everything we needed. There is a nice hot tub not far from the house that over looks a creek which made for a relaxing evening after a day in Seward. The layout is perfect for a large group (we had 5 adults and 2 children). Two bedrooms that share a bath are on the main floor. Up a short flight of stairs is the living room and kitchen/dining area with an outside deck. Downstairs is another bedroom and bathroom plus the utility room. All of the bedrooms were large with storage. We hope to return on our next Alaska vacation.

Lovely Cabin

The Stoney Creek Cabin was an absolute delight. Two bedrooms are next to each other, while the third is on the lowest level, further away from the other two, allowing the renters to adjust for the lightest sleepers’ needs. The showers in the two bathrooms are spacious and comfortable, and the hosts provide plenty of towels. All of the windows have room-darkening shades (exactly what is needed in Alaska in the summer), and the area is extremely quiet. However, the trip into Seward is a five minute (if that) drive. There is a great deck, and the yard is big, and there is plenty of parking. The overall design of the house (it is a great design) is brilliant.
