It has a skylight, side window, lamps, fan, usb plugs. Cute decor Cute camp ground with lights. There is a fire pit, grills, picnic tables, fridge, sink, bathrooms with showers, board games.

The yurts are wonderful and roomy, the beds are comfy, they keep everything tidy, and they provide so many perks! Let me expand, they have an incredible staff, people who truly love what they are doing and their enthusiasm is infectious! Every night we were there a warm fire greeted us with snapping and popping welcoming us back from our Seward explorations! The kitchen and cooking area is always clean and welcoming. You must cook your own food, there are flattops, BBQ grills, or even a stick by the campfire. I was familiar with s'mores which they provide ingredients for but I was introduced to stick bread, its life changing! There are so many options to use you can make gourmet meals or something simple, they make it easy no matter what your cooking abilities will allow! Morning coffee and tea are waiting hot and fresh, they also provide pancake/waffle mix for you to add to your planned meal. They have a supply of chocolate chips for a sweet twist but if you want with Alaskan style, and if you're lucky enough to be staying during blueberry season the property is abundant with high bush blueberries! Send someone out on a blueberry walk and add them to your fresh waffles or pancakes. Alaskan summer brings out the midnight sun, literally, but for extra light the paths to all of the yurts are well lit which make late night snack time or early morning coffee pleasant. The yurts do not have bathrooms inside them, you must venture out to the shared facilities. If you want an adventure that is unique, fun, and will be a memorable part of your Alaska experience, the Nauti Otter is the best!

    6 of us stayed in the dormitory (3 bunk beds) for $525 total for 2 nights. It will be cheaper if…read moreyou book directly with the host on their website. Pros- Cute building, big kitchen, fully equipped with large dining area where you can also meet other travellers. There is an induction cooktop, utensils, crockery, cutlery, toatser, hot water kettle, microwave etc. 4 shared restrooms+showers (seemed adequate to us). Everything seemed clean. Economical. Good vibe! Cons- Building seems old, restrooms are tiny. Bedrooms on the 1st floor don't seem well lighted. Sleeping arrangements seem very basic. The host came out, welcomed us and talked to us and went over everything. Overall, we had a nice stay without any problems! Will stay in this place again if I revisit Seward!

    I enjoyed staying here very much. I promised the lady who owns this place that I would write a…read morereview, because of how much I enjoyed this place. This by the way is my first yelp review. This place was very clean, the lady owner is very nice, upon arrival clean bed sheets were given to me, and pillow cover. Every morning I woke up they would be doing laundry and the restroom was always clean and floors were vacuumed. Yes rooms are small, but clean, bathrooms are small too, but clean. The kitchen is actually big and had a little living room with a nice view. Met some great people here that made my stay extra special. This is an old house and it looks a bit out dated, but it's been kept up, very clean. Beds are a bit small, but comfortable. Over all stayed 3 nights here, nice place. This by the way was the second hostel I had ever stayed at, I was very skeptical, since I'm very picky with even the type of hotel I stay. But after all this is a hostel, don't expect a hotel. The house is set in the middle of town, and walking distance to everything. Also the shuttle stops just down the street from hostel and you can jump in for free and it can take you all around town. Hostel does have lockers, small for valuables only, but convenient, bring your own locks. On my day of departure they allowed me to leave my pack with them while I went around town one last time. Always felt safe here. WiFi is slow, but at least there is WiFi that's always a plus. Enjoyed staying here very much and will be coming back summer of 2019

    I stayed here for my birthday in 2021, and I've been meaning to review them ever since. I'm…read moresitting here with COVID going through a long "to-do" list of things I've always meant to check-off so, here I am, reviewing this place. First the good: The A-frames are fantastically built and appointed. They look like they were built more to be photographed for the latest social media app than they were built to be lived in. The location is incredible, it's easy to walk right on down to the beach. The bad: This place has a very, very odd tone. On one hand, the business talks about community and integrating into the community. On the other hand, it charges $450/night with a 2-night minimum? It really takes a privileged person to be able to afford $900 for a weekend, probably not someone from the community. On top of that, you are expected to do little "chores" around the A-frames...or risk paying even more. Seriously. This place is priced like a luxury hotel but has chores like a $20/night hostel. Very confusing and conflicting vibes. The views: when we were there, the views from the A-frame were of other cabins...under construction. So we mainly had views of white sheets of TYVEK. You are really, really close to the other A-frame. You are forced to get friendly. Depending on who is in the other A-frame this could be really good or really bad. Again, an odd thing for $900. I was lucky enough that my girlfriend surprised me with a night here for my birthday. The only way she could afford it is because she begged to do one night only, and they also gave us a slight discount because of the TYVEK views. It's great if you can afford it, just make sure you do all your chores. For those of us that are used to sleeping on public lands (the owners include themselves in this lot)...this is only good for a one-time splurge and even then...your $900 might be better spent on a plane ticket to somewhere else.

    We did a property buyout for our small wedding and it was a perfect stay for our purposes! A little…read moresnug at max capacity (pull out couches, push beds together, etc) but overall a really nice place for my family to stay with excellent views. Beach is across the street which is where we held our ceremony and honestly it worked out better than I ever could have imagined! Fun little place and one of the nicest spots in Seward hands down.
