Guest Reviews

Srivatsa (10/5): Comfortable, serene and cozy - The lodge is located in a very serene location, right by the Bear Creek with beautiful views. The hosts were awesome in communicating the instructions and accommodating special dietary restrictions. The room was cozy and fair enough for a one night stay. Special shout out to Skye, who was extra helpful with everything.
Jonathan (10/5): - Awesome Alaska bfast items, access to lake and kayak plus Iditarod trail running. We had a great time - wonderful staff!
Ranjeet (8/5): - Beautiful Location and cabin. Nice breakfast.
Sandi (10/5): - Loved the staff, the room, the views and location. Delicious breakfasts and super clean accommodations. Would definitely come back!
Shane (10/5): - Great hosts. Would stay again. Nice place.
Ken (10/5): - Great stay. Comfortable Friendly
Brian (10/5): - Only 5 hours since checkin. So perhaps too early for a comprehensive review. But preliminarily the Bear Lake Lodge is excellent. Bre is a good host. Physical facilities such as our room, bathroom, common areas, parking all satisfactory. The views of the lake and trees…gorgeous. Unfortunately a cold snowy/rainy day but we accept what we get. The end of 20 glorious days all over Alaska. Would like to return and stay longer with Bear Lake. Btw, did a one hour flight with Joey (co-owner of Bear Lake Lodge and husband to Bre) of AA Seward Aid Tours over the Harding Ice Field. Stunning. Well worth the cost.
Tina (10/5): Great great great place - Really a fantastic place to be. Go for ride on the lake for free. Wake up to delicious breakfast being served by the round table. 5 minutes drive to town - and 5 minutes to Exit glacier. What’s not to like.
Bruce (10/5): - We stayed in the Aurora View room. Beautiful view of the lake in a very comfortable room for 3. Bre’s breakfasts are delish and she is a wonderful host.
Shauna (6/5): - The property was clean and close to Seward.
Shawn (10/5): Perfect place close to Seward! - The place was beautiful and very celan. We had a wonderful complimentary ice cream dessert before bed and breakfast was exceptional. Very friendly staff. Would highly recommend!
John (10/5): Comfortable stay - We stayed for two nights in the tiehacker room with a bathroom in the room. It was very comfortable and clean. Breakfast was good and the ice cream bars at night were greatly appreciated. Unfortunately it rained during our stay so we did not use the lake but if the weather was better that would have been a blast.
STEPHEN (10/5): Top Drawer Bed & Breakfast - Bear Lake Lodgings B&B is awesome! The lodge is very clean and well equipped. The lake side setting is tremendous! Margie did an outstanding job of ensuring we were well fed and well informed. Thank you!
Samuel (10/5): he best B &B in Alaska! - There are tons of things to do right at the bed and breakfast. Canoeing, kayaking, watching bald eagles, seeing the salmon run are all right there. The hosts are very knowledgeable about the area and have binders full of restaurants in the area along with another binder with hiking trails. They are gracious enough to make you a copy of any hiking map you need. The beds were very comfortable and our rooms were spacious. Breakfast was delicious! Also who can pass up a homage ice cream treat in the evening? Our family highly recommends Bear Lake Lodgings.
Matthew (10/5): Great amenities and location - Pat and Dennis (and innkeeper Margie) made sure everything was clean, comfortable, and relaxed. The large house is located in a beautiful location, secluded but only a short drive from Seward. Wish we‘d had time to partake of kayaking on the lake — and our booked activities left too early in the morning to partake of Margie’s home-cooked breakfasts, which sounded great. But she did make to-go breakfast/snack boxes for us, which was a nice touch and very appreciated. An unexpected treat was that they served free hand-dipped (in chocolate and rolled in toppings) gourmet ice cream bars in the evenings, and even at the shack they run in Seward. Great place for couples or families, just don’t do what we did... be sure to leave yourself some time to enjoy the breakfasts and the lake!
Marta (10/5): - The setting is amazing!! Loved kayaking the lake and the gorgeous mountain views! Extra beds and space for the kids. Phenomenal breakfast!!
Verified traveler (10/5): - it had complimentary kayak for use. the innkeeper was really friendly and helpful.
Verified traveler (10/5): - Beautiful property on Bear Lake with access to kayaks and canoes. Wonderful caretaker! A short drive to local attractions. Super clean, with tasteful decor. Excellent breakfasts every morning, and excellent desserts every night. A true gem!
Suman (10/5): Hidden gem - We were there for one night after a long day of Kenai Fjord tours. Its a neat little B&B nestled by a small and calm lake. Margie was fantastic host. There were trails and salmon watching nearby. Also have kayak but we didn't use them. We ended our stay with a lovely breakfast served and ready for the next adventure.
Verified traveler (10/5): - Beautiful property, clean rooms, beautiful lake, kayaks and canoes available for guests to enjoy. Hot breakfasts served. Hand dipped ice cream bars served every evening.
Verified traveler (10/5): - I liked everything about Bear Lake Lodge. It was a nice place to spend time!
Verified traveler (10/5): - Wow... excellent place to stay. Very welcoming hosts and many activities to do. Enjoy the ice cream in the afternoon having a good conversation at the balcony. The breakfast is truly fantastic.
Verified traveler (10/5): - Nice location with friendly staff. Would go back if ever in the area again.
Verified traveler (6/5): - The room we stayed in was very clean and nicely decorated. The service and hospitality was very good. Do be prepared if you stay on the top floor, as our room was very warm and stuffy with little circulation.
Verified traveler (10/5): - The host is very friendly, and environment is beautiful.
Lyndi (10/5): - It was my first time staying at a bed and breakfast and was a little skeptical at first about sharing a bathroom and a house with others. It turned out to be a great experience. The bathroom was not a big deal and it was kept clean. Loved eating and chatting with everyone for breakfast. What a great way to share stories, learn about activities in the area and get to talk to different folks from all over the country. We stayed 4 nights and found the location perfect. We had lots of activities planned each day so didn't spend too much time at home. But by the end of the day it was like going home. We both would recommend it to anybody!
Paul (10/5): - Idyllic property and location for a peaceful visit in the Seward area. Staff was wonderful and welcoming. We were only there for 1 night and found ourselves wishing we'd planned for a longer stay. Thanks Marjorie for making our visit one to remember!
William (10/5): Friendly staff, Great rooms. - Nice room, great food, wonderful location, and friendly staff. The house is right on Bear Lake and they have kayaks available to paddle on the lake. Marjie was very friendly and helpful. The breakfast was great and they served ice cream at 8pm in the common room.
Verified traveler (10/5): - Very welcoming. Ice cream treats very nice in the evenings. Very clean, comfortable. Breakfast was very good each morning. We really enjoyed our stay at Bear Lake Lodgings Bed & Breakfast. Kayaks available to go out on the lake. It was raining when we were there so we did not use, but was nice having them available. Highly recommend.
Chang (10/5): Best place to stay in Seward, Alaska - It was one of the best lodge we chose during this one week vacation to Alaska. We will go back again if we visit there and recommend highly. The best part is that they allow us to use their kayak free. The Bear Creek Lake was peaceful and breathtaking scenery. The host is very friendly and professionally manage the Bed & Breakfast. Everything was excellent.
Yuan (10/5): - The lodge is setting by beautiful bears Lake, our room was overlook the lake. The room is very clean and comfort. Breakfast were home made , fresh, warm, tasty. The staff were very nice and professional.
Verified traveler (10/5): - Very clean, comfortable beds and excellent staff and great breakfast! Would highly recommend. Made our visit extra special
Verified traveler (10/5): - Lake view was amazing. Definitely coming back with my fsmily when we get a chance.
Verified traveler (10/5): - Wonderful staff and beautiful setting made for a perfect evening.
Susan (8/5): - Very clean. Nice guests. Innkeeper was from VA also, 15 minutes from where we live. First B&B experience - having to take shoes off at the door, quiet by 10 pm, etc. I enjoyed more than the person traveling w/me!!
Verified traveler (6/5): - Very clean.. Very attentive to it needs.. Beautiful, on a lake!
Denise (10/5): - We enjoyed the warm atmosphere and the great staff. The food was excellent!
PATRICK (10/5): cozy and picturesque - Super comfortable and cozy home. The kayaks and the calm lake views were an amazing end to the evening.
Daniel (8/5): Loved Bear Lake Lodge! - When we drove up, we couldn’t believe the setting! It’s so beautiful! The lodge is new and everything is kept spotless. The breakfast food is DELICIOUS!! The evening ice cream is not to be missed!! I got out in the kayak and enjoyed a peaceful float on the lake. It’s just beautiful!! The only downside I could find is because we traveled with 5 adults. The suite we had had one bed and two sofa beds. The sofa beds for large adults are not very comfy. It would be perfect for kids though. We loved our stay and would definitely stay their again.
Georgiy (10/5): Great stay - Great location, beautiful lake, free kayaks, very nice hosts, good breakfast, great memories.
Verified traveler (10/5): - This was a very unique B&B on the lake. Great location with privacy and wooded trails near by, but close to Seward. The owners and innkeeper were lovely. The breakfast and evening ice cream were awesome. Definitely would stay here again.
Kelly (10/5): Beautiful, private, lake-front B&B! - We had a wonderful stay! Kayaking on the private lake, croquet on the back lawn, hand-dipped ice cream bars nightly, pheonomenal breakfast, spacious, clean and well-stocked suites, and extremely friendly owners & staff! Pat and Dennis are incredibly helpful in planning activities and asking the right questions to find out what information they can provide to ensure you enjoy your trip to Seward. Our family of four (including our busy 8 and 11 year-olds) thoroughly enjoyed our trip and want to go back to stay longer!
gobuckeyes (10/5): great time - very friendly and knowledgeable staff. they made great suggestions about restaurants, places to see, things to do. the nightly ice cream social allowed all of the guests to share their day's experiences.
Thomas (10/5): Comfy stay. - Great stay. Great food. Only down side is we shared a bathroom on top floor which I don't remember being stated in the website. Could be my mistake.
Oliver (10/5): everything just perfect! - the hospitality was incredibly. awesome hosts, and we really enjoyed the stay. the house and the location is beautiful. we all loved it!
Verified traveler (10/5): - Great location. Nice owners with plenty of stories. Room and breakfast was top notch.
