Welcome to Saunders Sunrise Cabins

Located on one of nature's wonders, Lake Superior's Whitefish Bay. Two miles north of Paradise, Michigan in the Upper Peninsula, 60 miles north of St. Ignace.

Saunders Sunrise Cabins features six cabins on Whitefish Bay. Five of our cabins are 2-bedroom cabins that measure 20' x 22' and will sleep 4 people comfortably. They have a full size bed in each bedroom. Some cabins also have a sofa big enough to sleep on. There is a bathroom with shower between the two bedrooms. The kitchen, dining area, and living room are all on the Bay side with the best view in town.

Everything is furnished for you: towels, linens, pots, pans, and dishes. All you have to bring is your food. Each cabin has a kitchenette furnished with a full size fridge, 2-burner range top, drip coffee maker, toaster, and microwave. Our kitchenettes do not have an oven.

All our cabins have Satellite TV and free Wi-Fi.

Studio Cabin & Bay View

We also have a one-room studio style cabin with bath. The cabin measures 14' x 14' and is affectionately known as our honeymoon suite. It sleeps just 2 people and has everything our 2-bedroom cabins have including kitchenette, but with a mini size fridge.

All of our cabins face the water and sit 50 feet from the waters edge, with the most beautiful view of Whitefish Bay, Whitefish Point, and the Canadian Mountains. They all face east so you can't miss the most beautiful sunrise you've ever seen!

Saunders Sunrise Cabins is a small "mom and pop" operation. We live on the premises and are always available to answer any questions or give you directions to all the local attractions. We do not have a maid service to "bug you" once you are settled in. We are located 2 miles north of the town of Paradise so it tends to be quiet and peaceful around here.
