Lovely accommodations but hard to find!

Stayed in a two bedroom chalet. Accommodations were lovely- plenty of room for the 4 of us- everything looked brand new. However, our check in was effectuated by text with the name of the unit and a code to get in, but no directions as to where the unit was located. There are multiple buildings. The road in to the lodge was unpaved and there is little lighting at night. We fortunately arrived during daylight but it took a lot of driving around to find the unit. A map would have been very helpful and essential for anyone renting a chalet and arriving after dark.

Best place to stay in Bear Creek Seward

Of the three hotels we've stayed in within the Bear Creek neighborhood just north of Seward, this one was the best. The room was the largest and quietest. It included an electronic-heating faux fireplace; a kitchen table with seating; and a kitchenette with sink, plates, silverware and some pans, and a large refrigerator (but no stove). The beds had the best comforters of our travels. It is true that our room was hard to find in the complex (pale numbering not in the normal sequence; lack of clear signage), the complex's road are unfinished gravel; and the common-area amenities were basically in-process. Nonetheless, for us, it was hands-down the best place to stay in Seward, if you have a car.

I liked staying at this property a lot! Only thing is- it's technically not in Seward. It's like a 7 minute drive downtown. It would have been nice to have shuttles that go back and forth (and if there were maybe I was just not aware of them). Other than that, clean facilities, comfortable bed, and nice selection of TV options with the SMART Tv.

I think as a new property it has potential.....but there was construction rubble and material piled up. It lacked signage like what room numbers for what buildings. The room was hot and we could hear noise above us. Beds were not comfortable.

No problems aside from lack of AC but that's most (maybe all) lodges here. And it's cool enough to where that's not a big deal. Otherwise, great stay!

Though we were super impressed by the modern outlook of the property, rooms felt super hot and stuffy since there were no A/C or air circulation especially during the hot summer day. It might have felt okay if it was not so hot. Room had some amenities like a big refrigerator and microwave but no toaster or tea.
