Harris

Check out the attractions in Harris. The Chip-in Casino is a good one.

Remember, limiting yourself to just one place can only ever give you a narrow window into the wider natural and cultural makeup of a region. So try to allow a few days to visit Upper Peninsula's attractions. If your schedule allows it, head 14 miles (23 kilometers) where you'll find Escanaba. Here you can visit the Delta Plaza Mall and Upper Peninsula State Fair Grounds.

About 60 miles (97 kilometers) to the north of Harris is Marquette, an important regional city home to Marquette Maritime Museum, Presque Isle Park and Superior Dome. Northern Michigan University and Marquette Harbor Light are just a sample of the other attractions in Marquette that should be included on everyone's to-do list.

Upper Peninsula is a good spot for travelers who get excited about lighthouses.

If you're the kind of traveler who prefers to take the slow lane while holidaying, why not try a spot of shore fishing and bird watching. Try some of this region's great winter attractions. Both locals and travellers enjoy cross-country skiing here. Snowboarding is also popular.

For those who plan on arriving and departing by plane, take into account that the closest major airport is Delta County Airport, 12 miles (19 kilometers) to the east of Harris.
