We've stayed in both the RV park and the yurts and enjoyed both experiences. You're conveniently located close to Seward and the grocery store. The facilities are kept so clean. Even when we visited on the 4th of July and it was busy, everything was kept tidy and didn't feel crowded.

We always feel safe and well provided for at the resort. So many activities provided by the resort with the most knowledgeable staff. Always greeted with friendly faces and a feeling of home!

We stayed in a yurt and loved it. The restroom and shower were always clean. Our booked deep sea fishing was epic. Will go again.

We stayed here in one of the yurts over the summer. It was great for our family. Loved having access to nice, clean restrooms and the fish processing facilities were so convenient! We look forward to coming back in the future.

Great place to stay when out with the family! Far enough away to stay out of the bustle, close enough to get your steps in for a walk if you are so inclined. The front desk was very patient with the many questions I had (it was our first time here) and they were great at keeping us informed of events going on while in town. Will definitely be coming back and using the military resort for all of our Seward stays!
