Cloud House

The Cloud House is a large floating manor that appears in Rainbow Ride in Super Mario 64 and Super Mario 64 DS. The player can reach it by riding the magic carpet to the right of the course's starting point, then riding the carpet to the right of the spinning platforms, and then riding the carpet to the right at the end of the second carpet's path. Inside the Cloud House are a small stairway, a black-and-white checkerboard floor, a large piece of wood with five coins on it, and a fireplace that acts like a flame thrower, as well as a ? Block containing a Power Flower in the DS version. The magic carpet that leads to the Cloud House takes the player through the manor twice. After going through the manor the first time, the carpet takes the player to two wooden platforms attached to glass blocks around the manor. On top of the first one is a circling Amp, and on top of the second one are five coins. The player can collect five more coins on the carpet's path right before it goes through the Cloud House the second time. As the carpet goes through the Cloud House again, it takes the player to the roof. On the roof are the Power Star for the mission The Big House in the Sky and a ! Box containing a 1-UP Mushroom, as well as a Star Sphere for the mission Switch Star of the Manor in the DS version. On the Cloud House's balcony is a warp that brings the player to the top of the maze of Rainbow Ride. Beneath the magic carpet's path next to the balcony is a wooden bridge, and a Star Switch is at the end of it in the DS version.
