Very functional stay!
We really enjoyed our stay in Seward. The house was very large for us, 2 couples, with a nice size kitchen and dining room and a comfortable couch in the family room. The beds were very comfortable. I would highly recommend this place to other visitors!

Perfect for our needs
We booked Melissa's place for a workshop that was being held in Seward. Worked out better than a hotel because everyone had their own bedroom but was able to get to know each other in the communal areas. Place was very neat and the setting was beautiful. Thanks for letting us share your home!

Wonderful stay for 4 adults!
Beautiful place inside and out. We loved the close walk to the salmon weir, and a short drive to Seward. The apartment was well more than well equipped for everything we needed. Everything was smooth, and the view of the mountain is just gorgeous.

Wonderful Spot in Seward
Tiehacker was the perfect spot to stay while visiting Seward. With an amazing view of the mountain and close to trails, we were able to go for walks each day around Bear Lake. Town was a short drive. The hosts were friendly, great communicators, and kind enough to send an object left behind to our nephew in Homer. Definitely recommend!!
