Kid-friendly holiday rentals in Bear Creek

Fantastic Alaskan Experience! Our family of four had the BEST time staying at the Eagle’s Nest during our visit to Seward. The house is really wonderful: well-heated complete with heated floors, excellent water pressure and the water heater was cranked up to 11 (just how I like it), a luxurious bath, and lots of games, toys, puzzles, and books for all ages to stay entertained during any downtime. The location is excellent - just a few minutes drive to town and a short distance to dog sledding, delicious food, and incredibly beautiful hikes to a glacier. Plus, we saw a bald eagle outside the bedroom window within minutes of checking in (and multiple times throughout our stay)! My two children (8 and 12 years old) say the Eagle’s Nest is their favorite place we’ve ever stayed. We hope to return soon!

Awesome place to stay in Seward. Walkable to almost everywhere plus it’s close to the free city shuttle. Simon is available if you need anything. Cant say enough good things about this place. Clean, convenient, and a great value!

The Beach House was a perfect little getaway for our short stay. Everything you need is available in the home and the host is so sweet & kind. Don’t miss out on the opportunity to walk to the beach if you book! It’s so beautiful and peaceful!!

Anazing place! Mountain view was breathtaking!

Jenny's Coast and Clay is a beautiful home in an excellent location. Water and mountain views, easy walking to and along the paved path on the water, walk to the SeaLife Center and downtown businesses and eateries. The house guide book and labels on drawers and cupboards make it easy to navigate everything. The kitchen is roomy and completely stocked, including spices, coffee, and a variety of teas. The linens are all high quality. The sheets feel like silk. Comfortable beds and living room furniture. Loved the dining table and chairs and the view to the water. The house guidebook also has recommendations for local eateries and activities. Jenny's pottery and library were added bonuses. Thanks for sharing your beautiful space, Jenny. All four of us were comfortable and appreciative.

We had a great time over our 3 night stay! We used this as base for exploring Seward (15 minutes away). But there was more to do around the house than I expected! We loved walking down to the creek and building up rock dams. There an Iditarod trail just across the street. Plus the bear creek weir is on the way into the final turn and is a great place to watch leaping salmon! The privacy of being at the end of the street was great, and the house was spotless and comfy to stay in.

What a lovely place to stay when visiting Seward! We visited Alaska for the first time and debated staying closer to the train station versus closer to the aquarium. I am SO glad we chose The Little Yellow House. Beautiful views, so many parks nearby. We saw wild harbor seals and a sea otter right off the coast near Founders Monument. So many great places to eat and shop around! We particularly loved Resurrect Art coffee house, Rowdy Radish, and Sweet Darlings (although everything we ate in Seward was amazing!). The sea life center was a lot of fun as well! Cannot recommend this house enough- beautiful bathroom, cozy sheets, beautiful views, stocked kitchen, cool decorations, and you cannot ask for a better location!

This place in Moose Pass gifted us more than a stay—it offered a moment of reflection. In the backyard, a lone spruce tree stands with quiet strength, its silhouette framed by snow-streaked mountains and deep forest green. Weathered by Alaska’s wild elements, it remains rooted, resilient, and full of life, breathing fresh, clean air into every morning. It invites you to slow down. To be still. To remember what matters. Inside, the home reflects the soul of well-traveled hosts, each room offering artifacts from across the globe and a vast library filled with books that sharpen the mind and spark the imagination. Their collection is a window into different ways of thinking and being, all grounded in deep respect for learning and culture. This place is both a sanctuary and a spark. Highly recommend for anyone seeking peace, perspective, and a fresh inhale of mountain air.

Beautiful space with a wonderful location and view. Hosts were very responsive and kind. Home had everything needed and beds were very comfortable—Thank you!!

Randy was very friendly and the place was like home. He was very kind and shared information as much as he can. One of the best hosts I have had.

Only stayed one night. The place was easy to find and get into. It was in a quiet neighborhood. It was as described & just like the pics. It was clean & neat. Beds comfy. Amenities included everything you would need (or expect). The hosts were quick to respond when we had questions. They were proactive w/ check-in info b4 we arrived & info provided while we were there. I would definitely stay there again!

This apartment is in the perfect location for anyone looking to stay in Seward. The other tenants in the building are extremely quiet and respectful. Shelly and Matt are great hosts who want nothing but the best for the guests who choose them. The binder in the Airbnb was also packed with recommendations that were useful for when we had some downtime from our scheduled plans. When I return to Seward, I’ll be staying here again

Meredith’s place had historical context, walkability, and so much charm! The perfect place to feel like you’re home away from home.

Shirley was very responsive to our questions. Her directions to the house were very good and precise. The home was clean and well cared for. It is a small drive if you want to go out to eat. However, it was quiet and peaceful there with a good grill and a fire pit. It definitely met our needs.

Cooper Landing cabin was set on a mountain side where you had beautiful views of mountains and rivers. Lorraine was very responsive and friendly. The cabin was clean and stocked with essentials. The muffins, eggs, and yogurt were welcome since grocery stores are not near by. Loved feeding the jays and squirrels and the campfires we had. Definitely a peaceful and beautiful area.

Anderson house was the perfect location for a wedding we attended on a rainy weekend. Beds were comfortable and rooms spacious. We did have some noise early in the morning with the shared washer. The Living room is as stated. Only two comfortable chairs. Plenty of seating though with metal bar stools, also a folding chair in each room. Like stated in other reviews, not a lounging room for all four people.

We had a wonderful time in Seward and really enjoyed our stay at Steven's place. The location could not have been better with beautiful views in the living room and easy walks to restaurants and the harbor. Steven was a very welcoming host - despite our late arrival, he met us, walked us through the unit, and provided helpful instructions. We were impressed by how clean and spacious the unit was - just perfect for our family. One thing to note is that the owners ask not to cook fish inside the unit. It was not an issue for us at all. Thank you, Steven!

They were very responsive via text and kept us well informed. I appreciate the beauty of the property and the local information that was provided.

This place was really awesome. Steven was a great host. The place was like new, very clean and spotless. The location was great, easy walking distance to great restaurants and the harbor.

The Grand View cabin was all we were expecting and more. It has a lovely view of the Kenai River and surrounding mountains. The cabin is luxurious. We like to self-cater so we appreciated the fully equipped pristine clean kitchen. It was a romantic place to be on our wedding anniversary. Dakota was responsive to our messages. Definitely looking to go there again for a special occasion.

My friends and I (a group of 5) spent a night at Pacific Rental's place and it was amazing. The place looks exactly like the pictures and is very convenient. Totally recommend to folks traveling to Seward. The beds, bathroom/shower were all great and the host was very responsive. The only issue was with the wifi that was a bit weak and had connection issues.

Beautiful accommodations and clear communication. What more can you ask for? This was the perfect place to stay during our trip to Seward, AK The only thing to be aware of is that the washer/dryer needs quarters.

Awesome place that is close to Seward. Made our stay memorable!

This was the perfect place for us. The beds and pillows were absolutely perfect. Everything was well stocked. We HIGHLY recommend fishing with Jimmy! It was one of the best experiences of our entire trip.
