It's beautiful, peaceful, and truly in the middle of nowhere. "Resort" is sort of a loose term, as it is essentially four cabins at the end of a small peninsula between Little Lake and Lake Superior. The cabins have gas powered heat, water, and basic electricity but there are no TVs and no great luxuries. The cabins are spacious and comfortable and 3/4 have great views of Little Lake while the 4th is more tucked away in the woods (a short walk to the beach still). I could be biased because I have spent nearly every summer of my life here in addition to fall and winter weekends, but this place is my heaven on earth.

Hot showers, full kitchens, gas refrigerators with small freezers, and gas lights. No electricity, no cell signal, just beach and wind in the trees. RENTS only by the WEEK. Saturday afternoon to the next Saturday morning. May through October. 90 % repeat families and friends, so availability is limited. Best to call mid October or in early May for open weeks.

The beds were comfortable, one of them was brand new! The bathroom was small but there was excellent water pressure and good, hot water. Our cabin had all the basics including all kitchen ware, a coffee maker, hair dryer, TV/VCR/DVD player and alarm clocks. Outdoors, our yard included a screened in attached porch, fire pit (wood included), picnic table, chairs and a cafe table and a clothesline. The property sits on the edge of Lake Superior and has private beach access. The beach has beautiful Great Lakes sand and cool, clear water. The beach is lined with adirondack chairs and they have inner tubes for the kids. The owners work hard to maintain their property and therefore can be a bit persnitickity about their cabins and property. Don't be put off; this place is terrific and they are the reason why. Do bring your own marshmallow forks; it's the one thing we didn't find. And, do your grocery shopping before you get to Paradise; the grocery store is a whole different ball game!

We learned that locals like ketchup on their pastries if they are north of the bridge and those south of the bridge like gravy.

We also had the freshly caught whitefish which was fried to perfection.

3 - Good choice if you're in the area. Skip to the end to see my rating scale…read more Gateway Motel isn't affiliated with one of the big hotel chains and doesn't pretend to be. But they're friendly and welcoming. The rooms are clean and comfortable. They were a perfect waypoint for us on our trip through the Upper Peninsula. Looking over the website prior to calling for availability, they're up front about their pet policy. They state that they'll accept pets depending on size, breed, and temperament for a $10 up charge. The owner came out and met our 70 pound labradoodle and after a minute was very welcoming. Not sure if we could have brought one much bigger, but ours is gentle and affectionate, so I imagine the combination of big but soft tempered was good enough. At any rate, I'd happily spend a night here again. My rating scale: 1 - Just don't 2 - You'll survive, but there are better choices close by 3 - Good choice if you're in the area 4 - I'd drive 30 minutes out of my way just to come here 5 - I'd try to convince my wife to drive an hour just to come here

Breakfast was served until 10 o'clock in the morning. It was very busy with big groups of children under five and seniors; an interesting mix. There were three waffle makers with assorted toppings, coffee, frozen pastries, yogurt, biscuits & gravy, eggs & bacon. There was an indoor & an outdoor pool, coin operated washing machines, fitness center, nightly bonfire and playground on the premises. A golf cart shuttled seniors & children around the property.

They are 100% committed to making your visit as enjoyable as it can be. The resort sits on a fairly large lake, 1 mile south of Lake Superior...the lake was originally used as a Lumber Holding\Sorting area. The proximity to both does not just offer some fantastic fishing, but keeps the temperature relatively tame.. Mid July we were roughly in the low 70s, a couple of days in the low 80s and a few nights in the 40s... so don't worry bout the absence of AC in the cabins... Not really Needed. However light pants and long sleeve shirt may be a life saver when the black flies are about. They can be relentless in the north-woods There are 6 cabins, 2 x 2 Unit Duplexes and 2 stand alones? The wife and I stayed in a duplex laid out as an efficiency unit . Again no AC but a small fan was supplied with screened windows offering a great cross-breeze. We had a double bed plus a double futon as a couch..bedding pillows and some warm blankets were provided. Hot water was ample, crisp great tasting well water.. Bathroom had a shower and toilet...powerful plumbing with clean towels!. The kitchen had a small 2 seat dinette as shown in the photos. Propane range\oven with a small set of pans and cooking utensils. We had a toaster, efficiency refrigerator w/freezer and Weber grill outside. Servings for 4. The place was immaculate.. bring paper towels and TP There's 150\200' of nice beach, an area for a communal bonfire..fish cleaning hut and a rowboat is provided with the cabin. Motorboats when available are 50$ a day but you can bring your own. This was a deal at a great price.
