Moose Lodge Cabin
Our stay at Moose Lodge Cabins was even better than we expected. The cabin was extremely comfortable, well-equipped with everything we needed, and even a few thoughtful extras we didn’t realize we’d want. The location is convenient to Seward yet tucked away in a quiet, peaceful setting. We highly recommend Moose Lodge Cabins and would gladly stay here again.

We had a great experience camping at Bear Necessities. The shared bathroom was super clean, the camp sites were clearly marked, and there were firewood and rings to use as well. Cynthia is super nice and accommodating and checked in to see if we needed anything. I’d definitely recommend staying here and if we end up back in Seward, we’ll certainly stay again.

Bear Cave Cottage
Mossy ended up making last minute arrangements to accommodate my child and my disability, because I hadn’t read the ad well enough. Not only was that generous but she’s generous and so is her land. You’ll have the most marvelous, grounding stay.

Terrain was not ready to ser tents we had to find a place to set tents. They need to clean up the tent areas they are renting since they are full of tree pieces hanging and will break our gear
