Always love picking up some national park souvenirs on our adventures and was disappointed that our go-to shop was closed. However, we found nearly everything we normally buy here! And there selection is massive - so much to choose from, all at affordable prices. Souvenirs from Alaska, Kenai, Seward... you name it, we found it. If you're looking for a good souvenir from your trip, this is a wonderful place to stop.

Ok I never thought I would say this about a tourist shop that sells stuff made in China, but this…read moreplace isn't terrible- and here's why. In a small town that struggles to survive through the long winter like Seward, this shop does something remarkable. They also sell Native Made goods CHEAPER THAN ANCHORAGE. I am an advocate of selling as much local, native made goods as possible. I had a conversation with the buyer at the store and he was telling me with each passing year there are less native carvers and artists because elders are passing away. They have some incredible pieces of art in the store. For people that don't have large sums of money to invest in art pieces, they have some local pieces of jewelry, Alaska themed shirts and hats, stickers, mugs, magnets, books and cook books, etc. They have also have a whole aisle of toys for out-of-towners who are desperate to satisfy a whiny kiddo during a trip. They even have ponchos, backpacks, umbrellas and other immediate need items that are often very hard to find in a town this size. Honestly, don't judge and book by its cover. This place has you covered.

Unlike the garbage shops in downtown Anchorage. Most of the stuff here is actually locally made/painted/written, and much of it is stuff you would actually WANT to buy! I went here with a friend visiting from the lower 48, fully expecting to snark-on it for being cheesy tourist junk goods and...I was pleasantly surprised! Staff was really nice, too.

Took shoes out to the car for him to try on after purchasing and they were too small. Took them back in immediately and they refused to return or do in store credit. The two ladies made excuses that the owner was home sick. Now we know why they are selling what a crooked place. Looked forward to swinging into this store every-time we were in town on business or with friends and family not anymore. As business owners ourselves this is not a way to do business!!!!

It was personalized and unfortunately the person who had it made got it wrong. It's no fault of the gallery's. However, I inquired about my options to fix it or do something different with it at my expense. I don't know if the son Jason was offended that I didn't like it or what but his responses were incredibly rude. I was quoted $50 in late August and $75 in October. He snapped at me stating he didn't remember from so long ago. But our email chain was a continuation of that conversation. All he had to do was read the prior email. When I mentioned that he told me to just come pick it up. Which I will and be done with them. What a terrible customer service experience.

The view is absolutely worth the trip up, and the Roundhouse has a really lovely viewing balcony wrapping around the whole building. It feels a bit like you're in a rough treehouse or loft in the middle of the mountains (despite the hulking ski buildings in the back). In terms of wares, the Roundhouse carries indigenous style jewelry, postcards, enamel pins, plushies, and much more depending on what your touristy self is looking for. Prices are a bit higher, but there is something for every budget, from post cards to one-of-a-kind hand-blown glass artwork. The museum aspect of Roundhouse consists of a diorama in the middle of the building, a timeline wrapping around the ceiling inside, and a few documentaries on TV display. If I remember correctly, there's also a display of traditional ski wear within the building. If you're in need of a keepsake and some information on local lore, I would recommend coming here for a glance around.

So yes you may pay a little more but what you get is damn near restaurant grade portions that are vacuumed sealed with thick bags, and you don't have to drive away to get everything processed. Next year Becky we will be back and when we lock our dates I'll call to give you a heads up. Thank you, Patrick Shima
