Camping near Detroit
We will be in the Detroit area in late July. Sterling State park looks like a good place, right on the shores of Erie, despite the apparent lack of shade. Does anyone know anything about this park? ...

Sterling is nice, paved sites, pull-thrus, FHUs, right on the lake, paths, lagoons, boat launch, playground, bike path to Monroe. Need a state park pass. Close to I-75.
If you are an out of stater, no, you don't. The recreational passport pass we have (on your plate) gives us a better rate.
Sterling is nice but toward the end of summer, may not be depending on how the algae blooms on the lake play out. If the blooms come into the west end like they usually do, it could be a stinker (literally) and no swimming either.
If you go to the Toledo Maritime Museum, you have to drive down Front Street and eat at Tony Pakos too. Interesting place with autographed stale bread rolls adorning the walls. Pakos was made famous by Jamie Farr from MASH.
The Toledo Museum of Art is a good visit as well, but the neighborhood is less than stellar, much less.
