Although Homer is a few hours away and may be a bit of a drive, with an early morning start it can be your adventure for the day. Relax, Settle in and Make this your "Home Away From Home".

I had a great stay at Julie’s cozy, well-appointed garage apartment. I am a solo traveler and this set-up was perfect. The way the apartment was situated I had complete privacy. But Julie lived steps away! Even though it rained most days I walked down to the creek as often as I could to watch the salmon spawn in the river adjacent to the property.
Nearby Moose Pass is a darling village with the added bonus of being able to watch the float planes take off and land.
Seward is just 30 minutes away but this property is secluded and tranquil. Comfy bed; strong, hot water in the shower, toilet flushes well, and safe with a lovely, congenial host!

This was such a great location for the three days we would spend on the Kenai Peninsula. A central spot that made it easy to get to Seward, Exit Glacier, Russian River, Cooper Landing, and even Kenai and Homer. The owner Julie did such a great job of making us feel welcome and helping out with every request we had, from well before the trip and during the trip. Even gave us pointers on some road closures that could have really delayed us. Being first time visitors to Alaska it was great to have a welcoming and helpful host!

My son and I stayed at Julie's place while we were in Seward for three days. It's a beautiful property right on the river. The apartment is very comfortable with everything we needed. She even provided fishing gear for my son to fish and was able to provide recommendations and was so communicative.

This is a perfect little getaway. Place is clean and cozy. Cant think of a single thing wrong with our stay. Yard is a great place to relax after being out all day. Beds are comfortable and they even had a bowl of fruit and fantastic cinnamon rolls.

This was a perfect cozy spot about 20-30 minutes north of Seward! Julie was a fantastic host and made sure we had everything we needed and gave us great tips for our travels. The backyard is so nice and we got to see the friendly owl in its house. Would definitely recommend and would stay again!

We enjoyed our stay and would gladly return. Julie and her husband, Gary, were so gracious and supportive. She greets you in person to show you everything plus she has fresh-baked cinnamon rolls and fruit waiting for you on the table. We also took advantage of their son Jared’s guide service to fish for Sockeye Salmon and had a blast. We didn’t get a chance to use backyard but it would be a nice area to retreat if time had permitted. Special thanks to Julie. We would stay there again if in Moose Pass/Seward again.

This was a quaint little cabin about half hour from Seward. When we arrived there was a plate with rolls and another with fruit. They provided everything beyond expectations including coffee, hot chocolate, and tea.
Julie walked over shortly after we arrived to see if we needed anything or had any questions.
I would highly recommend staying there. It was perfect for my husband and I and our two adult children. There is a king bed, Murphy bed, and hide a bed that we utilized. We also used the washer and dryer after a rainy hike.

Beautifully manicured property in the lush, rural, Alaskan wilderness. Super-clean & cozy B&B. The hosts were exceptional and very accomodating. We would stay here again in a heartbeat! ❤

Nice remote setting in the woods on the river, peaceful and quite with great views. The suite was clean and comfortable and had everything we needed for a perfect getaway. My wife and I would highly recommend staying here.

After a hot night in Trapper Creek, Jewel of the North was exactly what we needed! Plenty of room for our family of 5 and great access to Seward.

Julie was an excellent host! The location was just outside of Seward, little bit of a drive, but for the location and the host is was worth it! The little river in the backyard was neat. Julie had lots of great recommendations for the area, was very reachable, and lent us a cooler for the day which was very appreciated. Sky (her dog) was a delight as well.
