How will you be heading north?
If you are planning on the Wisconsin side of Lake Michigan (which I would suggest), you should make it a point to visit Door Co. It's a quaint peninsula that juts out into Lake MI just south of Green Bay. If you continue northward in WI, I would recommend hitting Pictured Rock SP from a late afternoon cruise on your way to Mackinac Island.
If you're going the MI side of Lake MI, make sure you hit St Joseph, Holland, or South Haven (or all three). As others have said, if you like Christmas you need to stop in Bronner's in Frankenmuth, and Henry Ford near Detroit is a must do if you're within 100 miles.
Not sure what your tastes are, but the Rock-N-Roll Hall of Fame is in Cleveland OH, and the Pro Football Hall of Fame is in Canton, OH.
Hopefully that will give you some ideas that you like.
