Bear Bottoms at Salmon Creek

Located on Salmon Creek, Bear Bottoms has everything for a peaceful getaway. This unique home sleeps 13 people in 5 beds upstairs and 2 beds downstairs. Enjoy a walk-in shower or jetted tub with a forest view. The kitchen is equipped to prepare meals with access to an outdoor grill. Dine inside or outside as you enjoy the view of the creek and mountains. Create s’more memories at the fire pit. You will have access to the top, middle, & bottom floor of the home.

The main house is one of two units on the property (the other being a mother-in-law apartment that sleeps 4 also available for rent). There is a top, middle, and bottom floor.

Top floor: After going upstairs, the top floor opens into a large bedroom that has 2 queen beds, 1 full bed, and 1 twin bed (the full and twin are bunk beds). This room has a desk, armoire, chest of drawers, two chairs, nightstands, and a creek/ mountain view that often has eagles perched over the river looking for salmon. This would be a great room for a large family or older children. This bedroom is connected to the master bathroom which has a shower and jetted tub. Another room in the bathroom houses the toilet and bidet. The other room upstairs has a queen bed, chest of drawers, nightstand, and is attached to the master bathroom. This room has a small window overlooking the forest.

Middle floor: The middle floor has the living area that has two sofas, one loveseat, an accessory chair, side table, and coffee table. There is a TV for entertainment. The dining area has a large table, and the kitchen has new stainless steel appliances and accessory appliances to help cook most meals. There is a large deck outside of the dining area with a table to enjoy the view. Outside of the half bathroom, there is an office area with games. The entrance to the house is on this floor.

Bottom floor: After going down the stairs, there is a hallway connecting a bathroom, storage room (locked), and two bedrooms. The bathroom has a shower/tub combo and sink. There is also a sliding door in the bathroom that reveals the laundry room complete with washer, dryer, and boiler system (Please do not touch the boiler system- it is very complicated. Contact your host if you need adjustments in the house). One of the bedrooms has a queen bed, chest of drawers, nightstand, and closet. The other bedroom has a queen, chest of drawers, two chairs, and closet.

Outside: The main house has its own grill; however the fire pit is a shared space between both units. There are s'more sticks, an ax, and firewood for guest use.

Please message if you are also interested in renting the mother-in-law suite equipped with its own kitchen, bathroom, and washer/dryer (sleeps 4).

**Warning: Accessibility to the entrance and bedrooms requires guests to climb entire flights of stairs.**

Check off that Bucket List
We loved Alaska and the trip was made so much better because of this house. Thank you, Erin, for your incredible hospitality. We loved the location. It was so easy to do all of the wonderful expeditions around Seward from this location. It was an ideal house for our family with everything we needed to cook in and enjoy all that Alaska has to offer.

Amazing Seward Home
Perfect home for our Seward vacation! Erin is an amazing host and left so many thoughtful touches in the home: a welcome sign greeting us, souvenir gifts, rain ponchos, earplugs in bedrooms, etc. The kitchen is well supplied. House was very clean and comfortable. Setting was fantastic, with a beautiful creek on property. We stayed here with extended family (5 kids ranging from ages 10-17) and 6 adults. We did not have any issues but Erin was so great to work with and helped me beforehand with suggested activities and restaurants. Would absolutely stay here again!
