10 great last-minute summer getaways
Haven't made your vacation plans yet? Lucky you. This year the best deals come to those who waited.
10. Michigan's Upper Peninsula
Demand for rentals on the UP is lower than in past years, says vacation-home expert Karpinski. The towns of Houghton, Drummond Island, Munising, and St. Ignace offer some of the best deals, she adds.
WHAT TO DO
Refreshingly untouristy, the UP is a perfect place to bond with family while bunking together in a waterfront cabin. Rentals are spacious. And there's plenty of shoreline to choose from: This 320-mile-long landmass is bordered by Lakes Superior, Huron, and Michigan. Fish off your dock and hope to catch dinner.
