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 which pay homage to the mining tents of yore, when Paxson was a camp for miners heading north to the goldfields.

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, the closest of any of our units to the river. Each bed has cozy flannel sheets and is topped with a down comforter and a genuine Hudson Bay wool 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 hot shower, sink, and flush 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. Homemade breakfast included.

What tents don't have:

• Electricity. Battery-operated lanterns are available in the tent, but these are rarely needed in our light-filled summers. Electrical outlets are available in each tent's bathroom.
• Heaters. Nights are cool here, but our tent beds are exceedingly warm. The ambient temperature of the tent will be cool when you awake in the morning.
• Neighbors. Although all of our units are very private - more so, we believe, than any others you will encounter on your trip to Alaska, these tents are truly off by themselves and evoke a genuine sense of being in the middle of wilderness
