I will admit that when I got my confirmation letters. one with the confirmation of my reservation and then an additional one with the code to the cabin they weren't correct. One had a different couple's name and a different check in date on the other. Of course I called and confirmed and I was put down for the right cabin and date under my name so I wasn't worried. People make mistakes and I understand. When I'd called I'm not sure who I spoke with but it was a woman and she was friendly and helpful.

We asked to split our bill between myself and my boyfriend and they did this smoothly with no problem!

The cabins were super easy to find and I loved the landscaping, although typical Seward rain hindered us from enjoying it.

We'd arrived in Seward early and went into town to walk around downtown and have some lunch. My boyfriend called about 2pm and asked if we could check in early and after listening to the male owner (I'm assuming Cliff) yelling across the room at a woman (assuming Barb) several times asking if our cabin was clean we got the okay to go ahead and check-in. This was great because we couldn't do much due to the rain and it was nice to get inside. The cabin we stayed in is the Eagle's Nest and it's like an efficiency with a nice sized bathroom!

It smelt freshly cleaned and I have no complaints over the cabin itself. I think it was attached to another cabin which I didn't know as we heard a lot of noise from the neighbors. I don't blame BCC for this though because some people are inconsiderate, and besides the noisy neighbors we had a good time. We had Dish Network TV to watch for awhile before heading out for dinner.

I love the fact that they have pancake mix available besides just the normal teas/coffees. They had that too, but the pancake mix was really a cool idea. They also had oatmeal and cherrios available. It was nice to wake up too...though I'm not sure if it was an extra charge...guess I'll find out if it was on my CC bill :P

I think total it was about $160 a night which is a bit high as I was hoping from privacy (hotel rooms = neighbors = noise) and didn't realize we were attached so that was a bummer.

Checkout is at 10am which I didn't know either until I looked in the nightstand drawer so we quickly gathered our things to get out! I'd assumed it was at 11am.

Overall the experience was a nice one, a bit high priced but that's pretty much my only complaint. I never met the owners in person so I don't have anything to say about that.

OH and the pond/landscaped area had a grill and fire pit. This would be SUCH A cute location for a small wedding :)

The owners should not be in the hospitality industry. I wish we'd taken more time to read all of the negative reviews before we chose Box Canyon Cabins -- they paint a very accurate picture of the very difficult owners. The grounds are pretty. The cabins are so-so on the inside. Save your money and reduce the stress-level of your vacation -- stay elsewhere!

Absolutely the best cabin I have ever stayed in. It was extremely clean and quiet. After coming back from a long day of sightseeing it was the best benefit to be able to sit outside and relax around the campfire.

What a idyllic little spot the owners have created here. The four of us had reserved two nights in the Wolf's Den, but so enjoyed the Seward area, as well as the cabin, that we decided to stay a third. Unfortunately, the Wolf's Den was booked, but the owners went out of their way to help us get comfortably accommodate - two of us in the one room Eagle's Den and the other two in a neighboring cabin just down the road. Both Wolf's and Eagle's "dens" were spotlessly clean, with well equipped with full kitchens, full baths - and definitely cozy. The landscaping - both wooded and open - along with pond, fire-pits and grill make this one of the most outstanding places we've stayed in Alaska.
