I just today found out about this slice of heaven on Earth and thought I might as well tell my readers about it too.
Orca Island Seward, Alaska. You stay at a private island, nine miles out in the ocean and you stay in a yurt.
First of all, I love yurts, wouldn't mind living in one myself. The scenery at this place is spectacular. You can do wild life watching, kayaking, there are fire pits, enjoy the sunshine on the warm deck of your yurt. I think I might have to visit! Unfortunately you can't bring a pet, too bad because Chhaya loves adventures.
If my Mom would ever visit Alaska, I would take her here so she could see the beauty of this place. And you can also take a day to explore Seward while you are there, it's a nice town. Only a few hours very scenic drive away from Anchorage. If you are planning a trip to Alaska, Orca Island would make for a great Alaskan experience.
