Again, Tanguy has aided us in creating great family memories and a comfortable stay. He worked with me in figuring out how to accommodate us and I truly appreciate it. Mostly everything we needed to cook and get cozy was provided, the view as always, soothing and the location unbeatable.

Everything was as advertised. Great location. Walked to Resurrection Bay both nights for boat watching and to watch the fishermen on shore. Great meals at local restaurants close by.

We had a one day fishing trip out of Seward and this place was perfect for two nights. Our friends and us had plenty of room and were very comfortable.

First time to Alaska and Seward definitely has all things Alaska. Stayed all 7 days in this town and each day was a new adventure. Even just the Sea Life center was a favorite. The water is within site of this place, walking distance to everything. Absolutely the perfect place. Clean, plenty of room and perfectly located in town. Thankful we found this gem and highly recommended. Hosts also are very helpful on local advice.

The place worked good. But the listing has the wrong address & the property manager never returned our 3 calls requesting how to put the heat on & what the Wi-Fi code was.
We did find the code on a slip of paper by the tv & did get some heat. Also, the text symbol for the property manager does not work. So no texting.
The view is great & eventually everything worked.

Conveniently located, Walking distance to the harbor, the sealife center, and downtown restaurants. Interesting decor, lots of antiques. Good selection of spices and condiments, as well as coffee and tea. There is no dishwasher, so if you plan to cook much, be prepared to wash dishes.

We truly felt like we'd been living in Alaska for two weeks. My friend and I absolutely fell in love with everything little Seward had to offer, and by visiting in September we avoided both bugs and crowds. Tanguy was a wonderful host! Nancy and Betty

Great Location
Walking distance to SeaLife Center and Library & Museum . A block away from gift shops, health food shop and restaurants. About 5 blocks from the Marine Harbor where we took several fishing charters.
Seward is a cute little small town with 1 grocery store

very unique place
What fun to stay in such a unique place. It was clean and in a great location. Unfortunately, it was rainy the entire time we were in Seward.

Seward Stay
The property has a unique feature as it looks like a historical building. The owner took an effort to decorate the place with some old artifacts to highlight the past splendor. The kitchen is small and the cabinet is crappy. The bedrooms are ok size-wise, but the mattresses are saggy. My friend said that she found hair on her bed sheet. The bathroom is remodeled and clean. In short, we think the place is acceptable for a short stay.

Charming historic house that has been lovingly restored. We appreciated the location so close to the bike path and a block away from the downtown area. Place was clean and comfortable. If you are looking for something out of the ordinary and more unique than a boring hotel room, I'd highly recommend staying here!

Historic property in the heart of Seward
Location is superb just off business area within easy walking distance to restaurants, waterfront, etc. Renovated (some things still in progress- i.e. stairway) upper level in historic home. Lots of interesting artifacts used in decorating. Classic L/R furniture wasn’t comfortable seating for four. We struggled with TV remotes but figured it out. We loved Seward and this was a great location for us.

Historic Home - Comfy & Walk to Everything!
Such a sweet place to stay while in Seward. Wonderful vintage property with large living area, kitchen with every gadget needed for home cooking, modern bath and great beds & linens. Tanguy was out ahead with instructions & recommendations so the in and out was easy and no hassle. We walked to everything - Resurrection Coffee House, Cookery and even the kayak adventure we'd booked. No place better to stay!

Perfect location
Great second floor flat with comfortable bed and enough kitchen supplies with which to cook. Interesting historic memorabilia decorating the space. Perfect location in a drop dead beautiful town!

My family enjoyed our 3 nights of stay greatly. The telegraph house is located in an unbeatable location, very close to the sea and park, walking distance to Sealife center, away from the busy harbor area. We enjoyed our evening strolls after dinner and kids loved the playground near the park. The property has lots of historical marks. Kitchen is a bit outdated we got used to it very quickly. Bathroom is spacious and very nice. The owner is very responsive to questions and did a great job making sure the place is well maintained.

Loved our stay. The Telegraph House is much more spacious in person! The house is very comfortable for a longer stay. The bedrooms and bath are separated for privacy. The kitchen is dated (well the house is >100 years old!), but had all the amenities we needed to cook full meals. Location is perfect, near everything and with private parking. Host was most helpful, particularly with advice and tips in advance of the trip as well as with a reschedule due to covid. Tanguy was amazing. Would definitely stay here again.

Beautiful space, amazing location!
What a fantastic stay. Tanguy’s place is beautiful — light-filled and airy, with charming historic pieces. Comfy beds and all the little extras you might need.
The location is perfect for early morning strolls by the way and a quick walk to the Sea Life Center and lots of great restaurants. (Go to the Seward Brewing Company and order the Wonton Nachos!)
Can’t recommend this place highly enough!

My family and I really enjoyed our stay. The house is comfortable and had every amenity we needed. Great location, very close to the walking path along the bay and walking distance to lots of great restaurants. The host was so considerate and checked with us to make sure we got settled in ok and asked if there was anything we needed. I would stay here again.
