Premier
& Deluxe Cabins – Oversized riversound log cabins,
with mountain views. They are located as close to the Gulkana River
as our septic systems and winter ice/thaw cycles permit, and the wonderful
sound of the river is all guests will hear at night. These offer a king
or queen bed plus a sofa-bed queen (with optional featherbed). These
cabins feature a comfortable couch and chairs and a writing desk, and
will sleep a maximum of four persons.
Our Premier & Deluxe cabins are slightly closer to the river than our Standard Cabins and have a slightly larger floorplan with expansive decks. They are spaced further apart from each other for maximum privacy. Their bathrooms contain a bathtub as well as a shower. They also have shoe-warming racks...an unusual, and much complimented amenity!

Isabel's Cottage - Newly renovated and perfect for groups or large families. A full house, with large living room, fully equipped kitchen, 3 separate bedrooms (one king and two queen beds), spacious bathroom with tub/shower, and an additional bed/futon available in the living room. The kitchen is terrific for those who wish to economize by cooking for themselves. Isabel's Cottage is our most private facility, surrounded by its own copse of woods and a wildflower meadow (in season) in the front. The Cottage has wonderful views of Paxson Mountain; there is no view of the river. Guests in the front bedroom will be able to sleep to the sound of the river. Please note that the Cottage is a standard house, not a traditional log cabin like our other units. This unit is wheelchair ramp accessible. Isabel's Cottage is considered a vacation rental home and is normally reserved for three or more nights. This cottage is named in honor of Isabel Barnette, who in March 1902 became the first white woman known to cross the Alaska Range through the pass which now bears her name and is located 11 miles north of us.

Standard Cabins - These log cabins receive the full sound of the river and no highway or other noise; they share the same view of Paxson Mountain and are ample-sized. Their bathrooms contain a shower (no tub); the vanity is in the main room and not in the bathroom. These cabins have a queen bed, and a full bed in a raised alcove with a step. Standard Cabins will sleep a maximum of four persons.These cabins are ideal for families traveling with small children (they love the raised bed!), or for two to three adults. We do recommend that two couples traveling together rent Isabel's Cottage or separate cabins (a full bed is a tight squeeze for most couples.) We have two standard cabins, identical layout inside, with different themes and slightly different views and privacy.

Tent Cabins - These super-deluxe wall tents are our newest units and have quickly become the favorite amongst those travelers with an adventuresome spirit. "Unique" is a sadly overused word in the hospitality industry, but we guarantee you that you will not find anything in Alaska comparable to these extraordinary units. They are immense - at 14' x 16' almost the size of the cabins - with a 9' center ceiling. They are on permanent platforms, with decks, and are sited DIRECTLY on the riverbank. Each tent has one magnificent king size bed* with a 12" thick memory foam mattress, topped with a down comforter and genuine Hudson Bay blanket, making these beds wonderfully warm even through the coolest nights. Each tent also has its own dedicated bathroom, decorated in a beautiful rustic chic style, with shower, sink, and toilet. These are a short 35 yard walk away, as we cannot have plumbing along this National Wild & Scenic River. Tenters also, of course, have full access to our Great Room, which is a wonderful place to pass the evening prior to repairing to the tent. Tenters can charge cell phones and so forth in their private, lockable bathrooms. Watch sockeye salmon coursing upstream as you sit in your comfortable deck chairs. * two twins available in lieu of king
