Kobuk’s Kabin - Cozy and Dog-Friendly | Cabin in Seward

Woof, hi, I’m Kobuk the Saint Bernard! Welcome to my log cabin! It’s super cozy, away from the downtown hustle-bustle, and a short walk to the beautiful 16-mile Lost Lake Trail, where I love to hike, wade in streams, and roll in snow.
My dog-friendly cabin is in a popular all-season adventure spot for mountain/snow bikers, trail runners, backcountry/cross-country skiers, and snowmachiners. Pack your gear and come on over! We even have ample room for parking boats and other trailered items!
THE SPACE
Kobuk’s Kabin is private and serene, tucked into a lush hillside behind our house in the Lost Lake neighborhood (five miles from downtown Seward). It is 16’ x 24’ and fully log with a queen bed and a queen-sized futon.
Full bathroom with toilet, sink, and stand-up shower. Shampoo, body wash, and soft towels await! The kitchenette is “dry” (no running water), but is fully stocked with all of the essentials: fridge, microwave, coffee maker, toaster oven, toaster, kettle, hot plate with pot and pan, and Brita water pitcher. A sink with running water is only a few steps away in the bathroom.
Step off the front porch to cook up your fresh catch or burgers on the propane grill* and then feast at the picnic table. A few yards into the woods in the other direction is a private fire pit* surrounded by Adirondack chairs and hanging bulb lights.
Kobuk’s Kabin has all the amenities you need to prepare for and relax after a day in the sun or snow. After a warm shower, enjoy DIY coffee, tea, oatmeal, and morning sun from the porch or breakfast nook. In the evening, pour a glass of wine, gather the s’mores supplies, and cozy up by the fire pit.* For those rainy or snowy days, a TV, collection of DVDs, books, board games, and comfy blankets will come to the rescue.
GUEST ACCESS
Outside of the log cabin, guests have private access to a fire pit with Adirondack chairs, surrounding forest area, picnic table, propane grill, and two parking spaces. Park however makes the most sense for your crew, but please do not block driveway access to our house. Street parking is safe and does not require a permit; this is preferable if you’re traveling with a large trailer or campervan.
OTHER THINGS TO NOTE
THERE IS NO WIFI! Gasp! Your cell phone will work for calls and basic data needs. Your cell phone might NOT work for data streaming (although it also could). If you are planning on mining Bitcoin or doing other data-intensive things, Kobuk recommends staying somewhere else (no offense). He (and we) think this cabin presents a lovely opportunity for overworked, over-connected folks to detox from technology. Embrace it! Go outside! Talk to each other! Have good ol’ 1990’s-style fun! We promise you’ll survive. But don’t take our word for it: Many past guests have specifically told us that truly enjoyed the lack of WiFi, if you can imagine that!
THERE ARE DOGS! The eponymous Kobuk and his English Setter sister, Willow, may be on the premises during some or all of your stay. Both love people and other dogs, although Kobuk is a big guy and can have a somewhat scary, protective bark. He’s actually a cuddly goof.
We will do our best to make sure our pups are not outside when you arrive (an ETA heads-up will help us greatly with this!) and will keep them away from the cabin while you’re here unless you say otherwise.
WE ARE DOG-FRIENDLY...with a couple of very reasonable requests:
1) Please remember to pay the pet fee at checkout.
2) Please do not leave your dog(s) unattended inside or outside of the cabin. This includes leaving dogs at the cabin in a crate. We can help you arrange local dog care or possibly watch your critters ourselves if we’re around - just ask!
3) Please do not let your critters on the futon OR always make sure they sit on one of the provided “dog” blankets. Fur is a nightmare to unstick. This will help Kobuk continue to host his four-legged friends.
INTERACTION WITH GUESTS
The electronic versions of ourselves are available 6am-9pm most days during your stay; the flesh versions with our furry companions will periodically be around the property. The cabin is self-checkin with a nifty keypad lock; we'll send you the code shortly before your arrival.
We love Alaska, have done a lot of different things, and will talk your ear off with ways for getting the most out of your visit. Don’t hesitate to ask questions or for tips and tricks as you plan your trip.
