Whitefish Bay, Lake Superior

The 280 feet of sandy beach on Lake Superior's Whitefish Bay is great for swimming, wading, and sunbathing.
It also is a great spot for watching the famous Paradise sunrises.

There are picnic tables, lawn furniture, Bar-B-Q grills and campfire pits.
At the end of the day, build a campfire, pull up your chairs, and enjoy a magnificent star-lit northern evening.

In the winter, be prepared for snow!
The Paradise area has some of the deepest and longest lasting snow in the Upper Peninsula.
The snow starts falling early and stays on the ground until spring.

Jim has just finished snow-blowing. Ready to Ride!

Snowmobiling and cross country skiing are the favorite winter sports in Paradise,
but we also have marvelous ice fishing.

For snowmobilers, the Paradise area has over 200 miles of trails, groomed seven nights a week, connecting to the over 2,500 miles of networked trails throughout the Upper Peninsula.
Cloud 9 Cottages has direct trail access so you can snowmobile right from your door.
Snowmobile to Tahquamenon Falls and see the stunning ice sculptures created by the huge falls.
Snowmobilers will enjoy the Mardi Gras De Snow in mid-February.
Cross Country Skiers may try out the Paradise trails:
The north trail is three miles long and the south trail is 1.5 miles.
There are also major cross country ski trails at Tahquamenon Falls, just outside of Paradise.

Cloud Nine Cottages offers year round recreational opportunities

If you are interested in birding, be sure to come during the early spring, from late March to the middle of May to see thousands of birds migrating the 17 miles to Canada for the summer.

Birders may count thousands of raptors flying near the point in a single day of migration. Whitefish Point is a natural flyway for the migrating birds, many of them arrive here and stop to feed and rest for a few hours before crossing Lake Superior. Stop at the Whitefish Point Bird Observatory for detailed information. Bring Your Camera!
Fall Color is outstanding in the Paradise Area.
Take a walk on our Haunted Trail the third weekend in October.
