Sault Ste Marie

Definitely go up the West side of Michigan for the best views of Lake Michigan. Our shore is sand dunes most of the way and easy to get to most places. Sleeping Bear Dunes is a great visit. Holland has Dutch Heritage and a State Park with full hookups, Grand Haven is Coast Guard City, Muskegon, and all the way up. Campgrounds are all along the way. At Mackinac City or St. Ignace you can take a ferry to Mackinac Island. Antlers restaurant is the one in Sault Ste. Marie, MI. and the Aunie Osburn CG is just down the road. Take a ride through the Soo Locks and see and learn about Great Lakes Shipping. In Sault Ste. Marie, Ontario you should ride the Agawa Canyon train. You will go up where there are no roads and then back. It is a great, all day ride. They do stop, for people who have cabins along the way, to drop off or pick up. If you go East Sudbury has Science North and the largest nickel. Have a great time.

No, you need that get back home, not to cross into Canada.

If you go into CAnada, you do have to come back, ergo, need passports.

And as a American citizen they cannot refuse your return to the USA.
what are you gonna do claim refugee status?
not gonna happen.

They will make you wish you had a passport by the time they are done with you, but they must let you return.

Great ideas

Go North a bit and get a lake front site at Pancake Bay. The Provincial Parks are quite nice.

A couple of related items.
1. You need passports or enhanced drivers licenses to travel into Canada,
2. Even if you do not go into Canada you may be hit with International roaming charges on your phone. If you have Verizon, you can purchase a plan for $2 to allow usage without extra charge.

This is the KOA in the Sault...http://koa.com/campgrounds/sault-ste-marie/

Have stayed in sault (Canada) a few times. Most are near the highway and fairly noisy. I like the KOA just north of town. Lots of trees/grass etc but not the cheapest place.

x2 Great campground
