We stayed for a view days at Joe Allen’s cabin. It was a beautiful and nice time. The family Allen were very hospitable and friendly. Joe gave us very useful information about activities and nice sceneries in the area. A comfortable cabin with all what you need. For us it was a very beautiful holiday and we saw a lot... More

I went to Seward Alaska on my own and picked Joe's cabin to stay in. I felt much safer then I would have if I had stayed in a hotel. It was comfortable, quiet and just what I needed for a restful stay. Looking out the back window you feel you are in deep woods even though you are close... More

If you want a taste of Alaska off the beaten path, then this is it. I stayed at the Allen's cabin for 5 days. The cabin is on Brenda and Joe's property and is spacious, quiet, and warm with all of the comforts of home. Joe is very knowledgeable about the local area and can recommend things to do as... More

This is a very nice cabin on the owner's property just out of the town of Seward. What is great about this is that you have the cabin to yourself but if you need anything Joe, Brenda and TJ are right there to answer a question about the cabin or just about any other question that you would have about...

I booked this cabin because of the reviews and the description of the hospitality of Joe. During the two nights we stayed there, we haven't seen Joe even once. His son took care of all the details, but we basically had to figure out everything for ourselves, not that there was much to figure out. The cabin itself is outside... More

Yigal, I am sorry we did not get a chance to meet. Last year I had a VERY strange schedule. I am glad that there was not much to figure out in relation to your stay. Our goal is that you have a uncomplicated stay and find a place to relax and enjoy the quiet of of the old growth... More

We live in Anchorage Alaska but need to get out of the city sometimes. Joe and TJ are wonderful hosts! The Cabin is clean and beautifully decorated. The cabin also has all the comforts of home with a lot of attention paid to detail. My son and enjoyed our stay and can not wait to return and do some more... More

Our primary purpose for staying in Seward was to explore the Keenai Fjords National Park. We did not want to take a tour boat. Joe Allen provided us with a one of a kind experience. He took us on his boat. A landing craft that included a grill fro BBQing! We chased after humpback whales and watched puffins float in... More

My husband and I stayed at five b&bs on this trip and this was the first one that when we drove up he said "Now this is Alaska"! The cabin was just outside of town, which was close enough to go or get anything you need, but far enough out to feel like your in the wilderness. Joe and TJ... More

Joe and his son TJ have a nice one room cabin that seems to give you that real Alaska feel. We stayed four nights with them and truely made new friends. They know the area and had many recommendations. Joe let us borrow his gold pans and directed us where to go to find some gold flour (and we did).... More
