Mackinac Island
Can anyone recommend a nice place to camp near Macknac Island in late September early October? Thank you, Clint

As I mentioned earlier ... it all depends on where you're coming from and where you want to go. If you like the KOAs or the massive private commercialized campgrounds, with enormous playgrounds and built-in pools, by all means, Mill Creek is a great choice.
We don't have children, so we prefer the smaller/quieter, often more picturesque facilities. We might go canoeing or take a dip in a stream or lake. Our humble little TT is self-contained, and we don't like the huge boxy CGs with stacked sites upon sites, and we don't necessarily need the FHU. That's why we prefer Wilderness (Northern Lower Peninsula) or Tahquamenon Falls (Upper Peninsula).
Heck, if you really want color and don't need electric, there are some beautiful State Forest CGs, too. We carry a quiet little Honda eu2000i companion that will charge the batteries and run everything but the a/c ... but who's running the a/c in October, right? Electric is nice, but not necessary.
Late September ... early October ... if you're looking for spectacular colors, you'll find it IN the hardwood forests. I just prefer to wake up in them, instead of having to make a day trip to enjoy them.
As they say, "beauty is in the eyes of the beholder".
