Vox Clamantis Cabin
This log cabin receives the full sound of the river and shares the same view of Paxson Mountain as the other cabins and is ample-sized with 12 foot ceilings. Its bathroom contains a shower (no tub); the vanity and sink are in the main room, not in the bathroom. The Vox has a Sealy Posturpedic pillow-top king bed and a full Serta Perfect Sleeper in a raised alcove with a step. This cabin sleeps a maximum of four persons, 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 two separate cabins (a full bed is a tight squeeze for most couples.)
This cabin honors the hard-working dogs of the North Country, the Alaskan Malamutes, and is named after one of our prior malamutes.
Rates below are for two persons, with breakfast, net all tax included.

The Wickersham Cabin
This is our most private cabin, with a king bed and memory foam mattress. The Wickersham is also the cabin closest to the river, although water views fluctuate through the season. This cabin also includes a comfortable couch, writing desk, extra chairs, plush bathrobes and a shoe-warming rack. Its bathroom's sink and vanity are outside the shower/toilet room yet are quite private from the rest of the cabin. The southerly views of its oversized deck look out on to nothing but nature: across the river towards Paxson Mountain. Full log walls, high ceiling and interior honey spruce paneling throughout evoke roominess and luxury at the same time as preserving the tradition of a genuine log cabin. The Wickersham sleeps a maximum of two persons.
"These cabins are simply great by all standards. Nice log cabin in the middle of rural Alaska with all the luxury possible and a porch overlooking the river. What else could you want?!" - jeeper1, TripAdvisor.com member, August 28, 2011
This cabin is named for Judge James Wickersham, a statesman, author, historian, scholar, and intrepid explorer of interior Alaska in the early years of this Territory.

What Guests Are Saying
"Paxson is 150 miles from the nearest stoplight, but Denali (Highway) Cabins manages to treat you to all the creature comforts you could possibly want in the wilds of Alaska: immaculately clean rooms with lovely mountain views, super-comfortable beds, close proximity to a creek frequented by wildlife, a talking Malamute, and the most interesting and thorough informational binder I've ever seen in a guest room."
