6/10 Good

It's a nice and spacious place with good amenities, though it unfortunately smelled like a wet dog throughout our stay.
Verified review

6/10 Good

The property itself was lovely, convenient, and the self check-in was seamless. Having a kitchen was a massive plus since we were traveling with a toddler! However, the room cleanliness fell short, the floor was quite dusty and looked like it hadn't been swept in days.
Verified review

10/10 Exceptional

The room was very spacious and clean. The location is convenient for the Exit Glacier in Kenai Fjords. The self check-in process was easy to use.

Verified review

10/10 Exceptional

Great place to stay. The Forget Me Not Chalet was wonderful. It was the perfect room to help us feel a little secluded for our anniversary trip. Coffee shop was delicious, but it was closed on Sunday morning. Good to keep in mind. Distance from Seward port area was just a short 10ish minutes away. We didn’t use the stove but was very happy to know it was an option.
Verified review

10/10 Exceptional

We had a cabin. It was cute, comfortable, and clean. The kitchen was big and the parking was easy. The cabins are in the back of the facilities, so we need a little assistance finding it, but the office was open and able to help.

Great place to stay, perfect location for visiting Kenai Fjords National Park and Seward
Verified review

8/10 Very good

This is a newer property and was reasonably clean, though not spotless. Some of the basic amenities and upkeep could be improved; for example, there were no paper towels in the room. The location is convenient for access to Exit Glacier, though it is a bit removed from downtown Seward. Overall, we had a pleasant and uneventful stay.

Stayed for 2 nights and it had all the amenities we could have. Rooms were clean and spacious, kitchen was a bonus. Would definitely stay here next time
Verified review

10/10 Exceptional

Great stay! Spacious rooms at a quiet property a couple miles outside of Seward. Nicely stocked kitchenette (has a refrigerator and microwave, no stove). Modern, clean (and did I mention quiet?), and surrounded by spruce trees and mountain views. The property has keypad locks and an online portal so you don't have to worry about who has the key, but pay special attention to the check-in time and access. When I visited some out-of-the-way parts of the property were still under construction.
Verified review

8/10 Very good

The room was comfortable. It would have been nice to have a roll of paper towels and a box of Kleenex. Our entire stay did not involve any human interaction with staff. First time for us but it worked out fine
Verified review

New, super clean lodge to choose while visiting Seward, AK. However, the owners use some sort of web based app to check in and check out... and We found it difficult to use. Messaged owners via their app with our issues...no response.
Verified review

10/10 Exceptional

This lodge was absolute perfection for our few days of adventuring around Seward. The lodge is nestled in the trees with Mountain Views everywhere you look. The staff was very friendly. The little coffee shop on property had amazing beverages and perfect little breakfast sandwiches and burritos we could grab before heading out for the day. Rooms were spacious and the Kitchenette with fridge was great bonus! As we checked out, we were greeted with the friendliest Spruce Lodge dog named Pearl…it was the cherry on top of a perfect experience! Thank you
