Good Time to Vacation in Michigan? (midwest.social)

Hoosier here looking to vacation along Lake Michigan in Michigan in August. How has the air quality been? In Indiana it has been hazy and the AQI has been not great, but I have been able to do most outdoor activities as usual. Since you guys are a bit closer to Canada, has the air been a big detriment to enjoying the outdoors? Also, what are some areas along the lake (thinking Grand Haven, Holland, maybe ending at Traverse and seeing Sleeping Bear Dunes) that locals enjoy that won't be too busy or too expensive?

Your advice is appreciated!

Air quality this year has been abysmal but not as bad as some areas. Because of the fires in mid-Michigan and Canada, there is just nothing to compare it to, we're just not near anything normal. That said, other places in the country are getting hit worse than us. How bad we do or do not have it is just massively dependent on weather patterns. I'm in SE Michigan and today the air quality is fine. On Sunday is was iffy.

All that being said, traveling in Michigan is the best from Summer through the Fall. July through October is prime time.
