We live in Michigan and our 3 season room is the favorite hangout during summer months. Sun shades are not very sophisticated here, given the climate. What do you all think?

Given you are snowbirds from Michigan I'll assume you are not fans of the extreme summer heat here. If true your preference of East and north makes sense - IE cooler. However if you are not going to be here at the "put your head in the oven" months west and south will give you warmer afternoon / evenings in the coldest months. I also am a snowbird. My number one priority for a lanai far exceeding orientation is NO kissing lanais. That has the potential of destroying any and all orientations.
