Welcome to Bear Necessities Cottages: A Hidden Gem in Seward, Alaska
Nestled among towering spruce trees on a peaceful two-acre property just minutes from the heart of Seward, Bear Necessities Cottages offers visitors a unique Alaskan getaway. Formerly known as Camelot Cottages, this seven-unit property was purchased and fully renovated during the winter of 2023–2024 by local entrepreneurs Shawn and Cynthia George.
The Georges have transformed the property into a charming retreat that blends rustic charm with modern conveniences. With cozy cottages themed after iconic Alaskan animals, on-site tent sites, and thoughtful amenities, Bear Necessities Cottages is the perfect base for exploring Seward.
Rustic Comfort Meets Modern Convenience
Each of the seven cottages (except the dry cabin) features its own private bathroom and kitchen or kitchenette, fully equipped with everything guests need to relax and feel at home. The cottages offer a cozy, rustic atmosphere with modern touches like WiFi throughout the property and on-site coin laundry.
For travelers staying in the dry cabin or at one of the tent sites, Bear Necessities Cottages provides a clean and convenient bathhouse. Whether you prefer the comfort of a cottage or a closer connection to nature, the property offers something for everyone.
Relax and Connect
Guests can unwind around one of the property’s four fire pits, perfect for evening campfires, or enjoy the covered pavilion, a great space for gathering with friends and family. These communal areas provide a welcoming place to relax after a day of adventure.
A Perfect Seward Location
Bear Necessities Cottages is conveniently located just outside of Seward, offering easy access to the area’s top attractions while maintaining a peaceful, quiet atmosphere:
- Minutes from downtown Seward, with shops, restaurants, and attractions close by.
- Conveniently near the port and train station, ideal for cruise passengers and rail travelers.
- Close to some of the best salmon fishing in Alaska, making it an excellent choice for anglers.
“We wanted to create a space where people could experience the beauty of Alaska while enjoying all the comforts they need to relax,” said Cynthia George.
