What season would you say is the best season to visit the Upper Peninsula of Michigan?|104403

Michigan is a state with four seasons, Fall, Winter, Spring, and Summer. Out of the four seasons, which season would you say is the best season to visit the Upper Peninsula of Michigan?

Fall... preferably in October.

WINTER!!! Snow and Lots of it. That is also depending on were you live currently

Mostly Spring _ fall

I_ve been here all my life, in Michigan that is, and i still have yet to go to the U-P. but from what i hear, the best time to go there is in the early fall, because the colors that the trees turn out up there are beyond compare.... so check it out
c.c.

Oh, as us michiganians call it Up North. Go up north for skiing. Otsego Ski club is the best. There_s many others. Fall in mackinac is so cool ( Mackinac island and Traverse City and Harbor Springs are so awesome). Traverse city is cool to shop around in and of course lots of lakes. harbor springs has lakes, shops, and many cool houses and things to look at. I reccomend Harbor Springs and Mackicnac, because there so pretty in summer ( mid), fall and winter ( early winter) :) Have fun! Also Petsosky with the cool stones :)

I_ve been to the UP alot. My favorite times are late summer to early fall. (End of July-End of October). Spring and early summer can be full of mosquitoes and the dreaded black flies. These usually die down in August. By early November things usually get pretty cold.

Winter can be fun, if you like skiing and snowmobiling, but I_m more into the summer stuff.

Summer and Winter!
Winter for skiing and snow mobiling and summer for the lakes and just enjoy the Summer events!

If you do any research on the weather conditions of the Upper Peninsula of Michigan during each season, I believe you would be able to answer your own question. However, I will help you out. I would say go with the norm: late spring, summer.

The Fall is my favorite due to the beautiful Fall colors and nice weather. October is the best! After that, Summer and Winter are tied depending on what you like to do. If you love skiing and such, Winter is great in the UP in Michigan. If you like swimming and boating, Summer is the obvious choice. The only season I dislike in Michigan is Spring. The weather is unpredictable, but usually cold, rainy, and muddy. Yuck!

I_d say the fall with all the colors! Crossing Mackinaw Bridge will give you a great view!! Be sure to go to Mackinaw Island and ride bicycles around it!

But there_s Pictured Rocks and Grand Marquis too!

Fall, it_s so rural, and there_s tons of trees that change, it_s really pretty. I wouldn_t suggest winter, you_re likely to get stuck. Summer is all right up there, but it_s still kinda cool and the lakes are COLD! (unless you like cold water). Spring... it_s just spring.

Summer or early fall! As a matter of fact in about a month, you couldn_t pay me enough to visit!

summer nice weather

The fall, because of the miles and miles of forests changing colors. It can be breathtaking! In the UP, there are fewer _seasons,_ more like Winter/Summer! If you are into snow, then visit Mackinac Island in the winter for a fairy land of winter!

Either the winter or the summer... it is really pretty in the winter, because they normally get more snow than the lower peninsula, and in the summer it is really pretty too.
but it kind of depends on where you are visiting too...
also get a pasty while you_re up there, and some makinaw fudge on the way to where you are going... they are amazing!

Fall is definately the best. It_s so pretty up there with the leaves changing.

i have a friend that goes camping up there with relitives every fall and spring. he says he likes fall the best and its better to go in the fall

How can I find housing for a month in seattle?|178024

I go on college break in december and I need to find housing near the university of washington campus. How can I find housing for a month long period? Do people rent rooms out for a month?

Yes, they do. And some people rent out vacation homes - that is, they rent a house for a week or a month. Check out vacation rentals in Seattle - this isn_t really their tourist season, so they_ll probably be ecstatic to get someone in. You can either google up _Seattle Vacation Homes_ or google up the Seattle Times and check their classified section. Or you could contact the University of Washington housing office - perhaps a student who is going home for the holidays will sublet his/her room.

I would look into an extended stay hotel. They have suites that you can have for longer periods of time. It would probably be perfect for a month stay.

What is the most romantic (hopefully inexpensive) place to stay at Walt Disney World Resort?|101914

I_m looking for a romantic disney resort (hopefully not too expensive) any suggestions?

We_re going to EPCOT in November for our One Year anniversary and want to make something special out of it.

Are there any romantic restaurants at EPCOT or at any of the resorts?

If you_re going to EPCOT, stay in EPCOT. The convenience is so worth it. The resorts there are within walking distance to the park. The Boardwalk and the Yacht and Beach Club are very nice resorts. You can also choose between the Swan or the Dolphin.
These are deluxe resorts, but I have heard the Beach Club does have a few efficiencies. That is worth asking about. As far as the Swan and Dolphin you can get some good online specials every once in a while.

There is, unfortunately, no romantic, inexpensive WDW resort close to Epcot. Of the Disney World resor close to Epcot, the Boardwalk is lovely small, and romantic, but quite expensive. The Yacht and Beach Clubs, because of their size, are not so romantic.

The most romantic resort at WDW that is not a deluxe resort is Port Orleans French Quarter. This is a _moderate_ resort. Of the value resorts, the most romantic is All-Star Music. Neither is in walking distance of Epcot, but WDW buses will take you there!

To help you balance cost vs. what you get, see this page on what you get by WDW resort price class:

Hope this helps and have a wonderful visit! Dave

personally i think that the french restaurant is very romantic in epcot and the coral reef restaurant is as well.
you don_t have to stay in a particular hotel to go to eat at one of their restaurants so i suggest eating at the california grill in the contemporary.


the most romantic of the deluxe hotels in my opinion
the contemporary
the grand floridian
the Polynesian
their prices start at $225 per nigt

most romantic of the moderate hotels in my opinion
the port orleans french quarters
the caribbean beach hotel
their prices start at $149 per night.

i don_t really think the value hotels are romantic they are more like being a kid again fun. they have arcades and they have kid and adult friendly themes to them.
i like pop century the best of the value resorts.
they start at $82 per night.

There are many good restaurants at Disney. Reservations could be made 180 days in advance, so my top pick might not be available, as it is so popular, especially for romantic dinners. My favorite restaurant for romance in Epcot is LeCellier in Canada followed by San Angel Inn at Mexico. You can see menus at:

I love the Yacht and Beach Club, but they are expensive like the monorail resorts. I_ve stayed at the Contemporary and don_t find it romantic at all, but the Grand Floridian or Polynesian would be. I also think Animal Kingdom Lodge ($225) or Wilderness Lodge ($225) are good choices, and they cost less than the deluxe resorts ($325+) but more than moderates. Next choice is the moderates like Port Orleans, Caribbean Beach, and Coronado Springs ($149). The value resorts are not romantic in the least, and you_d be better staying off Disney property than staying in one of those. Here_s a photo gallery of the resorts:

Stop by Guest Relations and get free anniversary pins to wear.

Absolutely! EPCOT has some of the best food in all of Disney World Property. Coral Reef is a fantastic restaurant if you like seafood. The ambiance cannot be beat either! Meals can be pricey, so choose a dish you both love and split it! Order their seafood bisque or a salad to bulk up the meal. You_ll have a romantic dinner for less money.

Another great option in EPCOT is Chefs De France! The restaurant glows at night with candles and nice lighting. The food is scrumptious - again a great place to share a plate to reduce cost. They offer plenty of food.

The Cantina De San Angel, located in Mexico_s Pavilion is another wonderful choice for ambiance (a _night_ sky by the river) and food! This is the least expensive option of the three I mentioned so feel free to order your own plates at this location and still stick to your budget! Their tacos and margaritas are fantastic!

It_s not on disney property but its near disney. It_s called the gayloard palms hotel. In november they have their christmas shows, ice skating and great chrismas entertainment. Inside is really nice.

I would suggest The Grand Floridian or The Polynesian, but they are the most expensive Disney World hotels. They offer rooms with a Magic Kingdom view!

the french pavillion. also, you could stay at the swan or the dolphin. but i don_t think they_re inexpensive.
