W.Z. left this review using the Directory software: - Hi.. We booked their one and only Log Cabin almost a year in advance and really had no clue about the resort other than what we read on the Internet. The employees were friendly and attentive.. beyond the 'call of duty'. The gift shop is loaded with the normal tourist things and they have a huge selection of quality clothing.. so don't over pack as you can buy it there and if you cannot, there are wonderful stores in Seward that will have what you want. The log cabin was spacious and clean with private parking for our rental car. There was a gas grill on the porch which we used to grill fish a couple nights. There is no (full service) restaurant at the resort, but a minimal breakfast selection and FREE coffee is available. There is a bar/club that opens in the evening and serves sandwiches, fries, and drinks.. Very informal and friendly. Many places in the area to eat and I recommend looking at the lists and reviews on the resort web site. Our 'hands down' favorite was the "Train Wreck"... You will not leave hungry. We booked our tours and fishing prior to arrival... No problems with anything and they are run (with a couple exceptions) with groups that work directly with the resort. Fishing charter was amazing.. caught our limit of Halibut and they have an amazing fish cleaning/packaging/freezing facility within the resort. They will ship the fish for you or package and you take with you.. as we did. After our 20 hr return trip to Florida, the fish was still frozen solid. There was much more, but cannot document everything. Yes, there was an Air Force Resort right next door that has closed! Does not reflect on the Army resort. ALSO... the Seward campground, as we observed, is probably not a RV Resort , so don't expect one. It is clean and safe and is better than some state parks we have stayed in.. Lots of local people from Anchorage, Fairbanks, etc camping there. Sorry about any typo's... We thoroughly enjoyed the Alaskan experience.
