To add to the places mentioned in the UP-- On the SW side of the UP is a campground right in Gladstone "Gladstone Bay Campground" It is right on the bay, walking distance from the town of Gladstone, has a nice boardwalk over the wetland, nice beach.
On the extreme eastern side of the UP is Drummond Island. There is a ferry over to the island. Logging trucks cross on the ferry, so you certainly can take your RV across. There a a couple of campgrounds on the Island. It is more rugged, and not quaint like Mackinac Island. It is a much different experience. We have gone there every year for the last decade.
And I might add, I like my pasty with a pat of butter. :-)
