We loved everything, even in the rain. Clean, warm, cozy, comfortable and right on the bay! Then there was a resident eagle on the flagpole for photo shoots. Otters playing in front of the yurt. We had the best time here of all the places we stayed in our two weeks in AK. George was wonderful to make certain we... More

We fell in love with Seward, ABC and George; our host. Alaska Base Camp is perfect for couples or families, absolutely spotless and ideally located. The view was stunning. I could have spent a week simply sitting on the deck looking at Resurrection Bay. There is plenty to do in the area: hiking, fishing, kayaking, Kenai Fjords NP trips and... More

Our family of four stayed at the Alaska Base Camp for three days, and absolutely loved everything about it. The accomodations were lovely and clean. The proprietor George was an absolute gentleman and pleasure to meet. He couldn't do enough for us, to ensure a wonderful stay. And, to top it all off, the location and surroundings were simply spectacular..beautifully... More

I stayed in Alaska Base Camp in May 2009 with my friends. We love this place so much. We considered it as the best hotel we stayed for our Alaska trip. The yurt are big and clean. The beds are comfortable. You could hear the wave and the sea lions (I guess) at night. George, the owner, was the best.... More

My daughter found this place on tripadvisor. They had introduced me to Yurts in 2008 when we went to California. This one was awesome. George was a great host. He is friendly, the place is spacious and clean. We had a beautiful view of the mountains and water from the deck and took walks on the beach which was just... More

Although no improvements were necessary to this beautifully built, located, furnished and operated lodging, George Walker, its owner, has added a portico over the front door of the yurt that reaches out to the deck and attaches to a new table. This protects you from the rain when going in and out of the yurt and also provides a handy... More

Alaska Base Camp is amazing! When my husband and I opened the door to the yurt, we were so excited to find a beautiful, clean and romantic room, which included a comfortable bed, futon, twin bed, kitchenette with a sitting area and a bathroom with a nice, hot shower (perfect after a long flight or hike). We enjoyed spectacular views... More

It was great and we wished we would have stayed all three days there. you have your own personal deck right on resurection bay with your own grill, patio furniture,... More

Spent two nights at the Yurt in June 2008. . Honestly the owner’s website does not do much for how nice the place actually is. We are campers so we were not expecting much more than the basics with the added bonus of indoor plumbing, refrigerator and microwave. I cannot tell you how surprised we were when we entered the...

Overall we were very pleased. The location is Lowell Point two miles south of Seward. The point is more developed than we expected and like so much of what we saw in Alaska contained what can be described as personal junk yards along the road. But once you get to the yurt it and the setting are very nice. The... More
