Want to find a DIAMOND in a coal field? Read on!!! My wife and I flew to Alaska for our very first time. We stayed with our daughter in Seward who works there. She told us about Seldovia and its quaintness & remoteness. We decided to go there for an overnight stay and bought our fishing licenses (just in case). We called Harbor's Edge B&B & made reservations for our stay plus reservations to go fishing. We drove our rental car to Homer & parked at Homer Air. We bought tickets to fly to Seldovia since the only way you can get there is by boat or airplane. Flying was the best choice for us due to time. We made a fast 15 minute flight & were picked up by Captain Tom Keesecker, owner & charter boat operator. Upon arriving at Harbor's Edge B&B, we met his wife , Peggy, and were shown our quarters. It was (and is) beautiful with a maritime motif throughout the suite. Even the carpet was aquamarine in color. There was a very comfortable king size bed plus 2 twin beds in the ajoining room. The closet space was large. The kitchen was completely furnished with first class dinnerware, silverware, & cookware (much to our surprise & delight). There was a TV with satellite reception, a large refrigerator, electric range & oven, and a table and several chairs by the window with a view of the harbor across the street. They provided an electric clock, exotic teas, coffee, and sugar/sweeteners too. Captain Tom presented us with two complimentary insulated blue drinking glasses with sliding opening at the top (so you could drink without spilling the contents). We were absolutely amazed at the cleanliness& completeness of the suite. It was spotless. The bathroom featured a wonderful glass shower and the lavatory was solid wood with an inset sink and a custom faucet fixture. We had a relaxing day strolling through Seldovia & taking in the sights and sounds. All the local restaurants were first class too. After a wonderful night of rest, we joined Captain Tom to go on our fishing trip. His boat is first class too and as spotless as Harbor's Edge B&B. He also features Sight Seeing Tours besides Fishing Charters. His reputation in town is impeccable, which really made us feel very comfortable and safe on the fishing trip. We fished for Halibut for quite some time. Got bites, but couldn't catch any, since they were moving due to the season. So Captain Tom changed the rigging on our fishing poles to catch Silver Salmon, which indeed we did!!! After returning to dock, he cleaned & prepared our catch so that we could bring it with us back to Seward & eventually back to our home in El Paso, Texas. Reluctantly, we packed our things & said goodbye to Peggy and Captain Tom drove us back to the airport where we caught our return flight to Homer. Everything went off without a hitch! That's hard to beat anywhere!!! WE do plan to return to our "Diamond" as soon as possible. We highly recommend anyone that wants a real taste of Alaska to book reservations at the Harbor's Edge B&B, [--] Don't miss out on an affordable and exciting opportunity for fun and relaxation in the most charming of places you could dream about. Sincerely, Patrick & Wilma Crowe, El Paso, Texas

Found this charming B&B through TripAdvisor, and had a wonderful time. Seldovia is a town of 300 accessible only by boat or a 10 minute flight from Homer. Arriving in September, we were delighted to find ourselvs bug free and literally the only tourists in town. The owners, Peggy and Tom, are really "living the dream" and could not have been friendlier or more accomodating, from having us up for a glass of wine to taking us out for an after dinner cruise on the bay in their boat! For those looking for a unique "real Alaska" experience, Seldovia and the Harbor's Edge is perfect.

This delightful bed and breakfast was recommended by a friend in Anchorage and it met all our expectations. Peggy Keesecker has been involved with the local tribal council for 16 years. More recently they moved to Seldovia from successful careers in Anchorage and have restored a structure into a splendid home and bed and breakfast. They have an apartment with beds for four, full kitchen, and full bath. This is what we rented for three nights. They also have a one bedroom accomodation within their home.

Tom Keesecker was most helpful to us in getting our luggage to and from the boat that brought us from Homer. He also took us out to Red Mountain for an evening hike. Finally he loaned us a rod and reel so my grandson could do some salmon fishing.

Overall Seldovia is a great place to spend a few days of relaxation. I strongly encourage you to spend your time at Harbors Edge Bed and Breakfast.
