Video: Why Settle for a Tent When You Can Have a Palace Instead?

This is Cabela’s Ultimate Alaknak Tent, and it is practically a portable cabin you can set up anywhere, anytime. Featuring high walls, multi-panel windows, air vents, and an optional vestibule to store outdoor equipment, this tent is a modern take on an old outfitter favorite. The Alaknak even has a zip floor panel to accommodate a wood stove and a stove jack built from NASA-inspired flame resistant material.

Yes, there are even cup holders.

It has been a couple years since the Alaknak tent came out, and so far the tent has garnered nearly universally good reviews from customers. It seems that despite its size—the largest version comes in 13 feet by 27 feet—the Alaknak holds up well to rough weather and the elements. The Ultimate Alaknak currently runs between $900 and $2,000, depending on size and equipment included, such as Army-style cots. Is this one item that will be going on your wish list?
