1 Block From The Beach!

2 Bedroom, 1 Bathroom, Sleeps 4

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. Adjacent to our other vacation rental unit (VRBO Listing #971600). 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.

Great place to stay

We enjoyed our stay at this 2 bedroom cottage. We stayed here the night before our cruise and wished we had more time here. We enjoyed the room to spread out in.The beds and pillows were comfortable and the kitchen stocked with spices, tea and coffee. Would definitely stay here again. Communication was easy and smooth.

Fantastic place

We stayed for two nights and this was perfect. Plenty of room for a family of 4 with 2 teen boys. Enough space for everyone, able to do some laundry, very comfortable beds and a great location. Kind of brought in the middle of the old Main Street by the sea life center and the marina. Easy to take a walk with gorgeous Resurrection Bay views to either of those areas. Highly recommend this location for a stay in Seward. .

Overnight Oasis

After hiking and kayaking in Homer and Seward, it was great to spend the night here. The neighborhood is quiet, the kitchen has everything we needed, the shower was nice and hot and the beds were cozy and comfortable. Just what we needed before the long flight home the next day!

Cozy spot on a rainy weekend

This was the perfect spot to warm up after a chilly boat tour! The location was ideal for walking to the Mermaid festival, dinner at The Flamingo Lounge, and an evening stroll along the coast with sea lion visitors. Everything was as advertised, beds were comfortable and we would definitely book again.

Great location!

Tim was so easy to contact and this was our first VRBO experience so we appreciated that! Loved the quaint little 2 bed/1 Bath home and LOVED having access to do our laundry! Great location within a few steps to a beautiful shoreline trail. Seward is absolutely beautiful and we are so grateful for Tim’s “Sweet Stone Cottage!”
