What part of Michigan? If you're coming from the Detroit metro my strong preference is to make it through Atlanta the first day. Coming from NE Ohio it's an ~14 hour drive (so 12-13 from Detroit) to the Jackson GA area, several campgrounds and many truck stops to choose from. There's nothing I enjoy less than Atlanta traffic (except perhaps DC traffic) so I'll do almost anything to avoid going through Atlanta during the day.
Its tough to make it thru Atl with the 3 kids as it would be about 15hours in the car after all the stops.
Then I'd plan my Campground so that I got to Atlanta between 12 and 2 PM, no point in pushing hard the first day just to sit in Atlanta gridlock. Btw you can use the HOV lane on 75, not having to negotiate the central interchange and get across 5 lanes of traffic to stay on 75 makes for a bit easier of a drive.
