Wonderful stay

We had a wonderful time in Paradise and at this house. The house is well-stocked and has everything you need, and the outdoor space is unbeatable. We found the locals and the area to be so inviting and hospitable. The hosts were responsive and helpful and accommodating. We would love to come back!

Definitely Going Back!

Everything about our stay was great! The house is clean, well stocked, and in a perfect location. The beds are comfy, the heaters work well, the lake is gorgeous, the sunroom is cozy--we loved the personal dock and the outdoor seating options by the firepit. Tracy and Rick were communicative and kind. I will definitely go back one day!

Great place! Working with Tracy was easy via Vrbo emails, quick replies. Had no issues on arrival and was pleased with the facilities. Looking forward to another trip to Paradise. Local area had nearby trails that my wife and I and brother and sister-in-law hiked plus the rock picking on Whitefish Point Bay shoreline.

Beautiful Location

Paradise Found was a great house for our stay in Paradise. Water views and privacy were both lovely. House was comfortable and everything worked well. My spouse particularly enjoyed the sunroom which was great for viewing both sunrises and the night sky. Kitchen supplies were in better shape than quite a few of our rentals over the years, which we appreciated. Bed in master (only one slept on) was comfortable. Would stay again.

Relaxing

The view from this property was amazing! The pictures online didn’t do it justice! We were impressed with the amount of living space in the cabin, it fit our group’s needs well. The water access was wonderful for our kids! The best part of the trip was the peace and quiet that came with its location! Super relaxing!

Perfect Getaway with spectacular views.

We absolutely loved the lake house from the moment we pulled into the drive and saw the fabulous views of Superior, the fire pit and the deck right next to the water. Rick and Stacy provided everything we could possibly need for a wonderful week. The house was beautifully appointed and had fantastic views from every window. Our stay there was the highlight of our vacation and we highly recommend it to anyone looking for a serene, private setting to recharge and relax.

Waterfront Paradise

Lakefront cottage with beautiful east facing views through full wall of windows. Too cold in September to get in the lake, but it was so tempting from the small dock! The cottage was clean, stocked with basics (incl coffee and filters!) Great location between Taquamenon Falls and Whitefish Point (20 min) and just 5 minutes from restaurants and shops in Paradise. If you are looking for a peaceful place in the woods and on the water - this is your spot! Thank you!

Great place to stay

Great location to watch Lake Superior. House was a nice place with plenty of places to sleep. Close to a lighthouse with a nice beach. Grill was dirty but we didn’t use it. Also, it would have been nice to have a few trash bags. There was only 1. Went into the town and ate most of our meals, as this was a girls get away and didn’t want to cook or clean lol…The host was very pleasant to talk to and helpful. We lost electricity for a few hours due to a storm and they called to check in with us. I will definitely return and encourage folks to rent this property.

Hidden Gem

This property was wonderful! Lots of positive things to say about it. Amazing location, 20 mins to Tahquamenom Falls, 20 mins to whitefish Point. Lake Superior access in the backyard!! Saw lots of boats and freighters on the lake from the sunroom. The sunroom was our favorite spot in the house. Loved the game cabinet our daughter enjoyed all of them and the coloring options. WiFi was good as well, since there was not good cell service. Beds were very comfortable. Could use some updates but definitely gave the cabin feel, other weird/ I guess not positive things. One room was supposed to have bunk beds but they had been changed and not updated on the listing. The HVAC fan kicked on alot and we could not figure out how to adjust it, it was sooo loud we ended up using windows to change the temperature and by the time we were going to ask about we had just gotten use to noise. Overall a very nice property and would stay again with a large family.
