Cloud Nine Cottages Your Hosts are Jim and Eve
Year Round Lakeside Cottages on a Sandy Beach at Paradise in the Upper Peninsula of Michigan Four modern one and two bedroom housekeeping cottages with rustic charm, overlooking beautiful Whitefish Bay, part of Lake Superior. One of the two bedroom cottages has a fireplace. All cottages at Cloud 9 are completely furnished, including knotty pine interior and carpeting. Cottages include color TV and in-room VCR, with a large video library at the office. Towels and Linens included (please bring your own beach towels).
Kitchens are furnished with refrigerator, stove, dishes, pots and pans, utensils, coffee maker, toaster and microwave. 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. The 280 feet of sandy beach on Lake Superior's Whitefish Bay is great for swimming, wading, sunbathing, and enjoying our pedal boats. It also is a great spot for watching the famous Paradise sunrises. 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. 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. 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. 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. Attractions in the Paradise area include the Whitefish Point Lighthouse, guarding the entrance to Whitefish Bay; Great Lakes Shipwreck Museum, the only shipwreck museum devoted to the Great Lakes; Whitefish Point Bird Observatory; the breath-taking Tahquamenon Falls, one of the largest waterfalls east of the Mississippi River; Point Iroquois Lighthouse, the lighthouse that guided ships into the Soo Locks and the Wild Blueberry Festival in late August. 10 day notice required for deposit refund or any changes in your reservation.
