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.

Great location in Seward within walking distance to everything. Comfortable, clean home. Met host when we arrived, was unobtrusive after that, but available if we needed him which we didn't. Everything was as listed. Good choice.

My husband and I had never been to Seward. We were grateful for our quiet and clean vrbo! It was easy to find, our host was clear with his instruction to us. Bonus: We were grateful to him for providing ‘bear spray’ for our hikes!

Great stay
Trip was great, hospitality was great, location was excellent. Highly recommend
Nerve-wracking and creepy when the host told me their neighbor saw us enter the house at 12:30 AM, intending to charge fees for an extra guest. It would’ve been perfectly fine if I had been directly informed that an additional guest incurs an extra fee, and I have no problem paying it if required by the regulations. I felt uncomfortable because the tone was judgmental, disrespectful, and made me feel like I was being condemned for a severe crime. We never saw our landlord or the neighbor during our stay but it felt like we were being watched…

Quiet place
Doug was a great host. Quiet location close to downtown. House is very clean with comfortable beds and all the amenities.
This is the 4th time that we have stayed here. We like that the location is near the Bay, close to the laundermat, and the SeaLife center. The unit has spectacular views of the glaciers and mountains. The unit is very comfortable for a family….roomy bedrooms with closets and bureaus, full kitchen and dining table, and roomy living area.
You will feel as if you are staying in a friend’s house.

Wonderful stay
Doug's place was perfect for our 3 night stay in Seward. Doug welcomed us and told us about the house and area. He was very helpful and made sure we had everything we needed. The house was very clean, comfortable and in a great location. We could walk to so many places. While there we went to Exit Glacier, Alaska Sealife Center and also on a Major Marine wildlife cruise. Doug's place was a wonderful home base and we had a lovely stay.
