This was my favorite place we stayed at during our Alaska trip. Staying in a yurt made for some great memories and I wish we could have stayed here a week instead of just one night. The owner was very nice and helpful and wanted to make sure that we were well taken care of. The yurt was clean and... More

Our first trip to Seward, and talk about LUCK! My wife just happened to stumble across Alaska Base Camp, and it's wonderful host, George Walker. Gee, what a fortunate find! Thank you, George! We were treated phenomenally, and truly appreciate your help and kindness!!! --David & Cindy P, 7-19 thru 7-21, 2012

I stayed here with my wife and two sons, ages 11&12. The Yurt is perfectly sited on the shores of Resurrection Bay and has everything you need for a short stay. The owner, George Walker, is a super nice guy to deal with an was very helpful with local info and everything else we needed. He engaged our kids in... More

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

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
