This is all an "according to taste" thing, but we will do the west coast of Michigan again before we go back to Cedar Point. If you LOVE coasters, there is no better. Not just cost, but that would make me think twice about the Ohio plan. There is camping at CP and Kelly's, but the ferry to Kelly's (check me on this) is probably going to nick you for a Franklin. The sites are E-only and ~30/night. Lots of hiking to do and the groves are impressive.
I was thinking as I started that 3 days in Holland is a lot, but we used to go about every other year. We did spend a whole day just on Windmill Island the first year. And then we walked the town and went over to buy the kids new shoes (Klompen - DW is Dutch). By the time we saw the museum and gardens and went to the fun parks, we had killed all the time we had. I later years, we would only go for a day. Drive one evening (it is 4+ hours for us), bivouac somewhere and hit the sights the next day and Maybe do the backhaul after dinner, but this was after we had done the run a few times. The Dunes will wear kids out fast. Try to get the to the "Ghost Forest". I couldn't get there with the GK because I have a knee that is giving out.
