Great location, comfy beds, and cozy living space. Shirley had everything ready for us - perfectly comfortable room temp and spotless! She answered questions promptly and gave super easy instructions on how to get to the Guesthouse. We'd definitely stay again!
This home was great for our family. The steps upstairs to the loft bed were a little tricky but otherwise everything was great. A nice little view of the mountains out the kitchen window and a short drive to downtown Seward.
The host was very accommodating as well.
Clean, spacious, short drive to town and exit glacier. Great Mountain View!

Great place in Seward
Our family enjoyed our two nights in lost lake. Clean, well kept, and in a good location. The right amount of space for our family of 5. Would stay here again
Nice, clean property with good amenities we needed for our stay in Seward. Communication from owner was clear and concise. Highly recommend this property.
The owner was so responsive! The guesthouse was super clean and stocked with all necessities. The deck and the View were spectacular. If in Alaska again I will be staying here again!
My husband, ten year old and I spent five nights in this lovely house and had a wonderful time. It was such a nice place and well laid out, with a stunning view. Shirley’s communication was excellent and we had zero problems while there. We would absolutely stay here again!
This was a perfect stay very near to Seward, and all of its attractions. The property was very clean and modern and comfortable. The house clearly put a lot of thought into this place for travelers, who may have never been to Alaska before. We would definitely stay here again if we come back to the Seward area.
Nice wooded location, within driving distance of seward. Well furnished, full kitchen, two big comfortable beds. Small balcony with beautiful view. We had a very nice time here.
Quaint home just outside of Seward. The listing was accurate and communication was exceptional. The house had everything we needed. We loved the layout. I didn't realize when booking that this had a unit below, but there were no issues with neighbors. The host provided grill, firepit, games, and several kitchen amenities. I would highly recommend!
This cabin is wonderful and we very much enjoyed our stay. The beds were comfortable, the location was quiet, and the communication was clear. The only thing that I didn't realize from the online booking was that we stayed in the upper unit and could hear the people in the lower unit, even if they weren't being loud. It wasn't a big deal, as I said we really enjoyed our stay, but it is something that caught me by surprise. If we find ourselves back in Seward we'd definitely stay here again!

Perfect spot for hiking and fishing
We just spent three nights at the Lost Lake - Seward House cabin and had a wonderful stay. Perfect size for four of us (two couples) and great location for fishing trips out of Seward and hiking Exit Glacier and nearby trails. The cabin was exceptionally clean, the beds comfortable and we enjoyed two relaxing evenings by the fire pit. We will be back!

Beautiful views , charming home
We loved our stay at this beautiful Seward Cabin . It was close enough to town to be convenient but far enough away to be out of the masses. We loved all the thoughtful touches through out. Especially appreciated the Roku stick on the tv for some movie viewing.
Very cute house. We were completely comfortable. It was well stocked, we didn't lack anything. Location was perfect, tucked away in a quiet neighborhood, but close enough to Seward.
