Last year, Winter Park ranked number one and ABR was ranked third. Last year, ABR’s owner, Eric Anderson was undergoing heart surgery, and he said the poll really cheered him up and helped him make through his recovery. You’ve got til 11 am this morning and to vote for your favorite on USA Today’s 10 Best page.

Fall road trip coming up! Stay at our roomy chalet and explore waterfalls, fall colors and fun hangouts!

IRONWOOD - USA Today has named the Western U.P. as the winner of its Best Fall Foliage Destination Spot for 2024. The publication said Copper Peak was one of the best areas to get a panoramic view of the fall colors. Copper Peak’s adventure ride will be open through the 20th and provides an excellent opportunity to do some leaf peeping. Other locations in the U.P. that are prime for viewing fall colors are Brockway Mountain Drive near Copper Harbor or M-28 between Marquette and Munising. USA Today’s designations are based on voting by readers.
