You're leaving now to spend 2 weeks in Michigan in the summer and you want to be on the lake? Sorry, but I almost laughed.
Those sites were all filled over 6 months ago.
You may be able to get a random site during the middle of the week, but that is also unlikely.
I would not just show up in Michigan in the summer and hope for the best on the Western Coast. You need to plan so you're not stuck without a place to sleep.
Best of luck to you.
Yes, those sites were filled six months ago when the reservation window opened, but many people cancel later, because life happens. Weddings, funerals, family emergencies, work changes, etc. can all impact summer plans.
Check the reservation site regularly 2-3 weeks before you plan to go, and you will find a spot.
