The state parks in Michigan require a passport I think its 10 bucks for a yearly pass you can get it at the gate, and you can reserve some spots in advance. Depending on where your going in the UP and what your interests are. There is a large campground close to Sault Saint Marie right on the lake close to the soo locks, also there is Tahquamenon State park on the eastern end of the UP. farther west there is a koa in Newberry and farther west in Munising there is the city tourist park right on the lake just west of the city, also Grand Marais has a campground close to the lake. Whitefish point houses the museum where some artifacts from the Edmund Fitsgerald are on display, thats close to Tahquamenon falls.
