About this property

Alaskan Log Cabin

Welcome to my Alaskan Log Cabin that is cozy, clean, and private.

Located at the end of a quiet subdivision on a large private lot.

About the cabin. The logs were harvested in Haines, Alaska and trucked up to Valdez, Alaska where Serendipity Log Works hand peeled and scribed these logs into what I wanted.
Enjoy the hand crafted all traditional mortise and tenon joinery stairs made by Precision Timberworks here in Seward.

Filled with live plants and artwork.
Enjoy the outside fire pit with your family and friends. Cook your days catch on the BBQ and enjoy a large kitchen to make your memories and meals.
Soak in a claw foot tub, (circa early 1900's) the bracket was made by local Artist James Minden who used salvaged metal from the 1964 Great Alaskan Earthquake. Or enjoy the tile walk in shower with pebble floor.

Construction was completed in the fall of 2016. After this it took almost two years to do the finish work and the fine detail work of sanding and staining logs, adding art and handpicking furniture to make this house as comfortable, cozy, warm and welcoming as possible.

Nicest place we have ever stayed in

This home is like a resort lodge. Every detail is thought out and provided, location is great, and artwork throughout is beautiful. Has nice view when clouds are not consuming the surrounding mountains. This is a great place to use as home base while in Seward.

Family vacation in Seward Alaska

Our family had a wonderful stay at the cabin, with its generous windows and views. Meals were easy to prepare with the well-stocked kitchen. Washroom supplies were generous and the shower and tub design are great. The artwork is beautiful throughout. My daughter loved feeding the Stellar’s jay who visits the back porch. Very comfortable holiday cabin. Highly recommend!

Awesome. Everything as expected and more

I looked a long time for a nice place on the Kenai Peninsula. So many properties described as "authentic " or "rustic" really just meant "not that nice." This place was awesome. It was just me and my wife though this was a 3 bedroom. It was worth every extra penny. Close to Seward. Convenient enough for Soldotna. The owner had thought of everything. Beautiful decor. All the needed amenities. Roomy. True to the Alaska spirit. Clean. New. Spacious. Comfortable. Really....i can't say enough.

We very much enjoyed our stay. The cabin was easy to find with the instructions given to us by the host. Our first impression, when we first walked in, was how spacious and beautifully decorated the cabin was! The paintings and the plants made it feel very cozy. We loved the open floor plan with a sitting area that was very comfortable. The kitchen was fully equipped with everything we needed to make meals. Our beds wet very comfortable. We were so happy there was a chest freezer. We stored the salmon that we caught in it! The host supplied binoculars, bear spray and laundry detergent which is above and beyond what we expected. It was a wonderful place our family to stay and I would highly recommend it. If ever we are back in Alaska, we would want to stay in this cabin.

A true log cabin with beautiful artistic flair and a lovely display of house plants to make this feel like home. The picture windows let in the light and showcase the views of the mountain, while the bedrooms have great black out curtains so you can sleep during those long Alaskan days. Beds were super comfortable too!

We really enjoyed our stay. The cabin was immaculate and beautiful. We especially enjoyed sitting around the fire pit and looking at all the beautiful wild flowers and tall majestic pines surrounding the property. Beds were super comfy, living area/loft was great for unwinding after a long day. Fully stocked kitchen was appreciated as we made several meals, as were the laundry facilities. Owner was fabulous. Would definitely recommend this gem.

Beautiful cabin and perfect location for our stay. It is the most uniquely decorated home I’ve ever seen, personalized with artwork by the owner and live plants everywhere…huge windows with lots of light. We loved it! The house is very clean and cozy with all the amenities…definitely not stingy with towels or toilet paper. I am so grateful we found this cabin for our second trip to Alaska. Thank you!

Seward - Escape to explore and fish

We spent 3 nights at the Alaskan Log Cabin. Beautiful location. 2 eagles graced our presence in the sky upon our arrival at the home. Lovely view, art work, comfortable beds... just a short drive down to Seward marina for our adventures. We enjoyed to s'mores at the firepit... and feeding the bird with the chopped peanuts left for us. Only suggestion would be more seasonings besides salt and pepper for cooking and a peeler for potatoes- as we did catch some fish that we prepared at the home. Safeway was just a 5 minute drive on the way to Seward.

About the host

Hosted by Julie

Host profile image
Born and raised in Alaska. I started working on commercial fishing and tug boats when I was 16 and received my USCG Captains license when I was 21. After many years at sea I began to start missing land and purchased the property when I was 30 and called Seward home.

Why they chose this property

The Lost Lake Subdivision is a quiet small subdivision. Out of the flood zone and high enough to be tsunami safe. Most of the subdivision including my lot is on bedrock so we don’t feel the earthquakes.

What makes this property unique

What makes my property unique is this is my personal home, I only rent it out during the summer months and I live in it the rest of the months. During the off season I am always upgrading the inside or improving the outside garden.
This property is an extension of me and who I am. The cabin has been decorated from my experiences in life and I try very hard to create and not purchase what everyone else has in their homes.
Staying here you'll enjoy a unique, clean, cozy, private, and beautiful cabin.
