Cozy Cabin with a Gorgeous View

Beautiful cabin and location. Cabin was very clean, everything was in great condition and very cozy! Would love to stay here again.

Great cabins!!

This was an amazing place.. clean comfortable.. nice and peaceful!! Would highly recommend.. and Gary was awesome.
Tammy, 5-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

This place was the perfect place for solitude and family connection. The little cabin was efficient and perfectly appointed. It felt secluded, but it was just a short drive to Seward, which is fun and vibrant. I almost cried when we left and I vow to return one day. Side note: there was mention in the description of no cell service unless you have Verizon, but our Spectrum service there worked perfectly—even though you should not want to be on a phone in such a special place.

The host of this property was extremely helpful to us. We could not stay at his property because of an accident. The host went out of his way to find us an alternative property in town and covered the difference in price! He made sure that his guests are taken care of. I am very grateful.

The cozy cabin was spotless, quiet, and near a beautiful lake. Would love to stay there again.

We stayed in cabin 4, aka the fun cabin. It has lake view and it was gorgeous. Really enjoyed our stay here. There is no wifi in the cabin; only in the office.

10/10 Exceptional

This was the cleanest, most well-maintained cabin we’ve ever been to. There were so many creative, beautiful touches to the cabin and the whole campground. The cabin was well equipped for everything we needed (2 adults, 3 teens) with a gorgeous view. There is nothing I wld have changed or added!!

Charming cabin and location

Great place to launch hikes, visits to downtown Seward and fjord/whale tours from. Lovely view of the lake from the kitchen and loft. It was so quiet and tranquil. A perfect place for a couple's or family getaway. The cabin was well stocked and had a modern interior. The host was very communicative and accommodating. I would definitely visit again.

The cabin we stayed in was fine - just know it is very basic and rustic - no insulation.

Renovated, cozy cabin in the woods

We stayed the beginning of Sept. The cabin we rented was " Premium Cabin, 2 Queen Beds, Kitchen, Mountainside". It was recently renovated, cozy and clean. The cabin has a mini frig, Keurig maker & variety of coffees, hot cocoa, etc. Good quality pans for cooking. The cabin had a charcoal grill and a fire pit. The host Gary has charcoal and fire wood for sale at the office which is very convenient. Guests have use of the kayak and paddle boat. The property is wooded but a great view of the lake by the beach area that is in walking distance to the cabin. Gary is very nice and helpful. We were able to get a discount on the fjords trip in Seward if we booked through him. Bed was comfy and bathroom was nice. The Alaska railroad train does go though the property and that was cool to see. Wifi is only available at the office but you can take your time sitting at the table to use the internet on your device. We would definitely stay again.

Average stay in beautiful location

The cabin was very quiet and in a beautiful area. The lake is gorgeous.somehow my reservation was messed up so instead of 3 adults, a child and an infant, it remade it to 2 adults. So when i called to book a wildlife cruise it was then it was caught. What bothered me is he mentioned it would be an extra fee per day because of extra people. I said ok... but when a hotel room says "room for 4" they dont charge you extra for person 3 or 4. The room rate is the same. So i thought ok, maybe because of the infant its "over capacity" so i get that. But i was also charged per day for the infant. So my 3 day stay essentially cost me 4. And ive never had anyone charge for an infant. No cruise, airline, hotel etc. So that left a bad taste to me. But i had paid the deposit and hoped for the best. I was excited for the bathtub. But the tub drain couldnt be closed. So that sucked for me and the kiddos. Also, my sister was walking up the stairs and one of the stairs literally broke under her and her leg fell all the way through. Luckily i waz underneath to help her. They did come repair it the same day while we were out in town. It was nice they have a small playground for the kids to play. Each cabin had a hammock outside it which was a nice addition as well. It was a nice expereince just left me a little bummed as well. I always want to support small buisnesses. But i also want to be honest about my experience. It also would have been great to have a microwave in the cabin.

The cabin was spectacular!! Everything looked brand new in the cabin. Renfro obviosly takes pride in the accomidations, and pays attention to the details. I will be staying at the cabins again next summer. Great Bargain compared to other places in the area.

Excellent location and communication!

6/10 Good

This place had the perfect cabin feel. Unfortunately we were not alone. There were definitely noisy unwanted roommates in the ceiling, fortunately the roof was nicely sealed from the living area. However seemed ironic that we had to pay a pet fee for our little dog when there were animals living there rent free.
Sean, 1-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

If you’re headed to Seward this is the absolute best place to stay. I am absolutely in love with this quiet remote place. It is nicely tucked away in the middle of the woods. The owner Gary is usually in the office when you enter. He is warm, informative and extremely pleasant to deal with. He had two assistants that were equally as pleasant and helpful. The cabins were well stocked with everything we could have possibly needed. The place was safe, well kept and just a dream get away for anyone who desire a nice remote and homely stay. There is no wifi in most of the cabin areas but we used that as a mental break from screens and an opportunity to focus on the nature in front of us. The mountains and lake was within 5 minutes walk from our cabin. Kayaking is available on the premises. My husband who is an avid New Yorker and started off reluctant fell in love with this place and is looking forward to another visit. There was absolutely nothing negative I could say about this place. Thanks Gary for allowing us a little slice of your world.

The location is good, about 25 min from Seward. The property is ok but falls short on many amenities. Good for a quick night stay but would not recommend for a longer stay.

Nice place in the woods

Very nice place, super quiet and not far from Seward. Host Gary was super nice and accommodating. We had a great time and the place was very relaxing.
Timothy, 3-night trip

Lovely stay in nature

We absolutely loved our stay. The property is immersed in nature, close but far enough from Seward. The cabins are basic but this is really the point. The highlight of our stay was surely the friendliness of Gary (the manager/owner) and even his friends. A true pearl, a true local stay. Kids loved it too! The only place we stayed in Alaska that had its own playground, close to the lake. No small feat!
Irena, 3-night trip

Road construction noise all night and not there fault. Old drapes, heard bats in the ceiling and in looking on line that we would be able to see water.
Cynthia, 1-night trip

8/10 Very good

If you want to get away from it all, Renfros is the place to go. There is no WIFI or phone service unless you go to the lodge. Make sure you take your own provisions such as salt pepper etc. The fridge is very small and the freezer will not actually keep things frozen. Seward is not far for supplies. There is plenty of hiking and things to see in the aeea..

Stayed overnight before a fishing trip from Seward. Beautiful scenery and great hosts.
John, 1-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

We are so glad we stayed at Renfro’s! It is a great “unplugged” space where we got a lot of quality family time. There are books and games available in the office, as well as kayaks and paddle boats. Our kids really enjoyed exploring at the beach, playing in the cabin loft, and swinging in the hammock. The cabin was comfortable for our family of 5. The kitchen is well stocked with dishes and cookware. We would absolutely stay here again!

Great place to reset. Would go back.

Beautiful area. Quaint cabins. Super clean. Gary was a wonderful host Wi-Fi does not exist in the cabins but is available at the check in cabin. Would not have been a big deal on vacation but a little challenging when traveling for business. Remote area so no TV.
