We were so impressed with the attention to detail we found in this immaculate home. The kitchen was stocked not only with plenty of dishes and glasses but also snacks, coffee, and spices. The spacious yard and many outdoor toys called to the children to play outside in spite of the rain. Inside, the board games in the sunroom kept them occupied. We enjoyed the quiet of the forest, yet were only a short drive from town. We will be back.

Seward Rocks

5 minute drive to downtown, with soooo much to do. The place is modern, well kept, roomy with a well stocked kitchen. The only thing we didn't like is we missed the Moose walking through the yard. Excellent choice 5 star

Wonderful stay in Seward!

We had a wonderful stay at Moose Trail! There were 8 of us (4 adults, 4 children) from 2 families and we had a wonderful visit. Close to downtown Seward and close to Kenai Fjords NP. The house is just as listed and has SO MANY extras! Our kids loved the badminton and croquet that was set up. We loved the fresh-cut flowers and the invitation to cut more of our own from the flower garden. Everything we could possibly need was in the kitchen, there was lots of shampoo/conditioner/body wash provided, and the home was clean and tidy. We had a wonderful trip and highly recommend this property!

Amazing place to stay

The house was beautiful and comfortable. Location was great too. There’s a beautiful backyard and lots of games to play both indoor and outdoor. There were a few minor issues: problem with water drainage in the master bathroom, problems with the lock in the common bathroom. Overall it was a great stay.

Seward Stay

This home was immaculate with all the kitchen accessories and supplies you would ever need. The home was located outside of Seward and away from shopping maybe by 10 miles. We are a family of two seniors, 2 adults and kids ages 19, 18 and 14. We had plenty of room and would stay there again.
