The fall foliage is actually better down state on the west side because of the type of trees. So far as the aurora borealis that is a total hit & miss. I have been a chaser of that phenomenon and I have not had any luck. Best wishes for a good vacation!
Your review is in contrast to the rest of the review that there are lots of cute shops and restaurants in downtown Marquette... what's the story?

I'm not sure what other town she is comparing Marquette to in Northern MI. Marquette, Houghton, Calumet, Sault Ste Marie and a few other towns have beautiful downtown buildings and businesses. I can honestly say, Marquette's downtown is one of my favorites! The shops don't all close by 5pm so there is plenty to do even into the evening. The Co-Op is open until 9pm if you need an amazing snack within walking distance. The Peter White Library always has beautiful art on display in its gallery. If you want some quiet take a walk out to the water. Anytime of year, the ways are crashing and the views are majestic.
