Summary

Cloud Nine Cabins was a Beaver Island cabin group reported in January 1971 as formerly known as McDonough’s Cabins. The source says the group was then owned by Franklin Douglas of Kalamazoo and included a small log cabin nearest the East Side Road.

Evidence and limits

The article reports the loss of one cabin, not the destruction of the entire group. It does not identify the group’s exact location, construction dates, parcel history, or the status of the remaining cabins.

Open questions

  • Where was the Cloud Nine group located, and does any part survive?
  • What records connect the earlier McDonough’s Cabins name to the property?
  • Was the burned cabin rebuilt or replaced?
