Bear Necessities Cottages

My family and I stayed in the Moose cabin for 2 nights (tweens aged 13 and 14) while we enjoyed Seward. (2 bedrooms, 1 bath, kitchen/living area) The cabin is well decorated and very clean and had all the necessary kitchen items for us to enjoy breakfast and warming up things in the microwave for lunch. Beds were comfortable and bedding was cute that matched the theme of the cabin...moose :) My kids enjoyed the bunk beds and it was nice to have access to a TV for some downtime before sleep. Cynthia's response time was impeccable and she even navigated and booked a tour (with a discount!) for our family with Kenai Fjords boat company which we highly recommend. We struggled with the hot water with our first shower but Cynthia replied immediately to our response and told us how to remedy it and after that we didn't have any problems. The property is very wooded.... with tall mature pine trees. We didn't use the camp fire space but there is a nice fire ring that is accessible. There were apparently bears that visited the property at night but we didn't see any and felt safe. Would recommend bear spray just in case though. It is just about a 10 minute drive from the adorably cute town of Seward. Highly recommend a visit to this water town while you are in Alaska. The scenery and shopping in little local shops and eateries are all lovely. The only negative, and one other reviewer noted this and it is certainly not controllable by Cynthia, is the only bathroom is through the master bedroom. Slightly inconvenient but not something that can necessarily be fixed. Thanks for our stay Bear Necessities!

nice decor with personal touch... excellent comfy bed..peaceful location and setting..very responsive owners..went out of their way to fulfill our request for a pan.. booking to departure, the whole process seamless, smooth and excellent communication

It was a great experience! Good communication and very welcoming! The cabin was clean and has everything you need! Excellent location; and not a few minutes from the main town. I would recommend to anyone staying in Seward. Thank you, Bear Necessities!
