If you have the time, a trip around the Keweenaw Peninsula (north of Houghton/Hancock)is very scenic. Take US 41 north, then MI 26 out of Phoenix through Eagle River & Eagle Harbor (quaint little towns) then the Brockway Mountain Drive (yoou travel along a ridge overlooking Lake Superior and inland lakes) to the town on Copper Harbor on the tip of the Keweenaw.
