If you get a chance, venture up to Sault Ste. Marie and stay at Aune Osborne campground.
Nice place right on the St. Mary's River where you can watch ore boats entering/exiting the Soo Locks. The boats are amazingly close so you get a real feel for their size. Nice restaurant just down the street called the Antlers with lots of atmosphere.
Only about 30 plus miles from St. Ignace.
We just spent most of a week up in the Soo this past September and loved it. We stayed in the KOA on the Ontario side. There's so much to see and do up there, like the locks tour, the train tour, etc.
We had a comical series of ongoing Google/Yelp fails where every bar, restaurant, or POI we searched for was on the wrong side of the border, no matter which side we were on. We got to know the border agents pretty well.
