This three bedroom, two bathroom sleeps (7) and is perfect for the family! With a large yard, great deck, BBQ grill and a fire pit you'll enjoy this cozy bungalow located just 5 miles from town. A full kitchen, cozy living room, and laundry make this property perfect for groups wanting to explore Seward. As our guest, we're here to help you explore Seward and Kenai Fjords National Park, offering discounts on many toursin the area!

Woodland Retreat sits on a large, private lot surrounded by trees, just a short drive from town bordering on state land. After a long day of play in the Seward area, the Retreat offers a comfortable place to relax. Games, books, WiFi and TV with Roku box are available for when it’s time to wind down or rest after a busy day.

The home and yard are yours to enjoy. There is one closet in the master suite that is locked to guests (we use it for storage of linens etc) as well as a tool shed in the backyard that is off limits, otherwise you are free to use the entire space.

There's a small cabin on property that is a separate nightly rental with its own parking. Please respect their privacy.

We do encourage guests to refrain from cooking fish inside the unit; however, we do provide a grill for outdoor cooking of your local catch. We do not allow processing of fish on property.

You will need to have a car if you are staying at Woodland Retreat. There is also a bike path that runs along the highway from town to just before the turnoff to Woodland Retreat and makes for a nice ride. Taxis are also available, but no other public transportation runs outside of town at this time.

As a free resource, my husband Clay, a local boat captain, and I are here to answer questions or help you book the perfect excursion to explore Seward and the surrounding Kenai Fjords National Park. We offer discounts on many tours to our guests.

    The house was very comfortable and fully equipped for 6 people. The house was clean and comfortable and was just a short drive away from downtown Seward. We really enjoyed having a fire in the backyard. Communication with the host was great which made checking in/out very easy. I would HIGHLY recommend this house to anyone coming to Seward

    Great house. Just as listing described. Clay & Kaylee were awesome and communication was top notch! Great location with only being a short drive to Seward & Kenai NP but still very remote. The house has everything you could need.I would highly recommend!

    This was a wonderful property to stay at. Away from the city just enough to be quiet and relaxing but close enough to see all that Seward has to offer. Even saw Moose on our walk. Loved the back deck. Very clean and had everything we needed. Thank you for a wonderful stay in Seward.

    An excellent place to stay, out in the woods and just north of Seward. We loved the firepit and chairs and spent each evening out back with a fire. Bedrooms are decorated with quilts and cabin decor and split w the master and master bath on one end of the house and the other two bedrooms and bath between them diagonnally across the house. Beds were excellent with good bedding. Extra blankets were provided in each room for each bed. The well equipped kitchen made cooking easyand fun and a large table can seat everyone. The living room was large and could sit seven easily. The pictures make the house look small but it is quite roomy and very comfortable!

    We stayed 4 nights at this home. It is a cute small house just north of Seward. A quick 10 minute drive gets you into town. We had 6 adults in our party and space was not an issue. We were there in June, so the only thing I wish they would have had were curtains on the windows, rather than just blinds.

    Property is easy to get to, clean, and fit 4 adults and 3 children perfectly. Loved that there were some toys in the closet for the kids to play with and books to enjoy! Fire pit out back was perfect for roasting marshmallows.
