We thoroughly enjoyed our stay here, the hosts were very attentive and the additional room really elevated our visit to Alaska. Would definitely book with Kylee and team again.
We enjoyed staying at the house. Plenty of room for 6 people. Walking distance to restaurants and the harbor. Very comfortable space. The house had everything we needed
We loved our stay at Mountainview getaway in Seward! We had a party of 9 and fit comfortably in this well appointed and clean home. The location is absolutely perfect--a quick walk to the harbor, shops, restaurants, and the downtown Seward area. Views from the picture windows were also amazing. We cannot wait to come back!
We stopped in Seward for a few days to go fishing with an old friend. This house was convenient to the harbor, restaurants and grocery store. House is in great shape and clean.
We stayed for 4 days in Seward. The house was amazing and wonderful view and yard. Plenty of room for 10 of us. Hosts have great discounts on fun things to do. Highly recommend
This was an incredible find for our family. The home was equipped with many small non essential comforts which made the experience even better. This place is in a great central location, close to the water and town with priceless views. This was one of the best VRBO experience i have had.
Our stay was awesome! It started shortly after we booked and were contacted by the owners offering any help with things to do during our stay in Seward. The recommendations and connections were spot on. The house was perfect for our large family. We spent two weeks in Alaska and Seward was everyone’s favorite by a wide margin.
The property was just as described. We had a group of ten adults and we had plenty of room. The house is close to everything in downtown Seward. The house had all the essential items for a comfortable stay. The host was very helpful with suggesting activities. The check in and check out was simple. We had a great time!
It feels like the house is brand new.
Plenty of room.
Nice quiet neighborhood.
Nicely furnished.
The craziest, neatest refrigerator.
The door on the right will blow you away.
I used to sell appliances!

Wonderful picture windows. Pre-cruise two night stay. The house was centrally located and walkable to everything. Choose your free shuttle stops wisely if toting big luggage and tip the driver. Two in our crew did all day memorable kayaking through Kenai Fyords. Lots to do, see, explore. Great coffee at Ressurect Art. Enjoyed Thai at Woody’s. Loved the Sea Life Center.
Absolutely smooth check-in and check-out process. Things were in order as advertised and communicated. House was very clean and all necessary items were available and in place. Cozy house, yet a lot of space for a large party or family to be accommodated. Excellent staff and prompt in their communication.
Just be prepared for a smaller shower in the main bed room.
Overall, we enjoyed the house and the space.
Best House I've stayed at in Seward!! Highly Recommend
If you need to book a House in Seward look no further!! Absolutely loved this property. Originally booked for 8 people. A family emergency came up and 4 family members could not join us and property managers offered what they could with the change. Very thoughtful and considerate hosts. House was super clean and comfortable! 2 amazing bathrooms, one with good natural light and a window to open. Amazing views out of windows! Nice roomy backyard with a fire pit. Nice big TV that can swivel to watch from kitchen table or living room. Beds are super comfy with super soft sheets. Ceiling fans and extra fans were a huge plus. House rules very reasonable and clean up rules also very doable! One showered is pretty small but was usable for myself. Other showered is huge and beautifully finished. Great location in town. Nice roomy driveway for vehicles. Can't say enough about the place. We really loved it!
The property was clean and in a great location. The beds were comfortable and had nice linens.
The kitchen was well appointed with all the necessities.
Our issues were with the stairs and seating. Access to the house is up several stairs. This would not be a problem except there were no handrails. When you first enter the house there is a small landing with stairs going both up and down. Again, there were no handrails. The stairs were not carpeted, but had small stair pads on each step. These were not secured to the floor at all and moved as you stepped on them. It was rather precarious going up and down. If a guest is mobility challenged, this is not the house for you.
The furniture in the living room was all VERY low. It appears that the legs have been removed on the sofa and loveseat. It made getting up from those places very difficult for everyone in our group of 60+ year olds.
The master bathroom shower was difficult at best. It was the size of a small cruise ship shower and difficult to use without getting water on the floor.
This is a great property for folks with no mobility issues, although it was not ideal for our group.
