The cabin was clean, quiet, and well looked after. The basket of s’mores ingredients was a nice touch (though it was too rainy and cold to make use of it). Unfortunately, the bed was very uncomfortable; it was extremely soft and it crested in the middle, keeping me guessing whether I was going to roll onto the floor at some point. New beds would make the property much more desirable.

Come for the view

Perfect place to rest your head and relax by the water with a fire. No access to the water itself but, you are right on the water. Great home base location to explore the white fish area and surrounding nature.

The cabin was clean and cozy. Enjoyed the bonfire every night and lake view. Sondra was very nice and enjoyed her visits. She got me a different lawn chair to sit in as I couldn’t sit in those low chairs after hip surgery and need a knee replacement. The tv was hard to figure out .Would tell people about this place. We would come back in the future.

Thank you so much for your kind review, Michele! I'm so glad to hear you enjoyed the cabin, the lake view, and those relaxing bonfire nights.

Cozy Little Place Close to the Goat Locker and Whitefish Point!

We LOVED our stay in Paradise!We visited 4/10/25--4/13/25 (in between Snowmobile and the Spring/Summer seasons). A lot of the peninsula was closed down during this time (which was perfectly fine with us--we went to relax and get a break from people!)This little studio cabin was PERFECT for us! Beautiful view of lake Superior; close to Whitefish Point/the Shipwreck Museum (less than 10 minutes away); close to the Goat Locker (less than 5 minutes away). Would definitely rent this place again!

Loved our stay! Clear communication throughout the booking process and stay. Adorable, comfortable, and clean accommodations right on the lake. Sit by the fire and enjoy the view. Appreciated the wood and welcome goodies. Looks just like the pictures and had everything you need to enjoy your stay. I wasn’t looking for new and modern. I wanted an authentic, traditional lakeside stay with a homey feel. That’s exactly what I got. Excellent location for exploring the area. Well-kept, well-run, family-owned business. Definitely recommend and would stay here again.

Not correct name on rental. (Freighters view) right on the road which was too close. Inside was fine. Back area didn’t allow going to lake shore line. HVAC unit didn’t work but that was really not an issue. I liked the fan that was provided. In summary we liked the inside but the view and the signage were unsatisfactory

Says it's perfect for snowmobilers, but there is no room to park anything more than a clamshell trailer! I have a 19ft 2 place inline, once I pulled as far forward as I could into the drive, my rear ramp still was in the road when opened. If you're bringing 3 sleds in one trailer, find a different place to stay, you won't be able to park it here. Also to get to the trail it's about 3 miles of riding the side of the road. Not ideal when the banks are so high you can't get up on them. Overall a nice place, but I would recommend it more for a summer trip, than a snowmobiling trip.
