I'm glad you're enjoying Michigan. A well kept secret when you don't have reservations the state and national forest campgrounds are hidden gems and you don't need reservations. As long as you're self contained they're great. Even when everything else it's full. We've been able to stay at some beautiful places.

Just returned from My brother and sister-in-law’s in Traverse City, always a fun trip. This visit we did the Empire Bluff Trail, walked out to the Frankfort North Breakwater Lighthouse and kayaked on Lake Crystal @ Beulah. Finished off the day biking around Boardman Lake and a brew at “The Filling Station Microbrewery in TC. There are a plethora of fun things to do “Up North” Michigan.

Great video of the area. I grew up in Leelanau, and I used to fish on the other side of the dock in Leland as a boy. I remember when the pierce stocking drive was in a different location and you didn't have to pay to do anything in the National park like you have to today.

Sleeping Bear Dunes is a beautiful area. We were there on a family trip a few weeks before you were. Great time of the year! But it gets busy! Another great area in Michigan is the Oscoda and Tawas area on the opposite side of the state, if you haven't been there. The drive along that side of the state goes all the way to Mackinac City. The drive west from Oscoda along the Au Sable has some great stops. Lumbermans Monument (with more sand dunes), Iargo Springs and some great canoeing and kayaking fun! And many places to camp with your RV.

Pierce Stocking Drive and lookout /Sleeping Bear Dunes is one of my vary favorite places. The view from the very top is amazing and breathtaking. If you ever travel back to Michigan and get the chance to visit Frankfort, it is the most beautiful little beach town . You feel as though youre tucked away in a village town, surrounded by hilly lush areas and water . A beautiful beach and quaint shopping and eateries will greet you.

Leland is a cool little town. We were there in 1997 in early June before school was out and my two boys and I fished that whole inlet area. We caught so many fish and had a blast catching small mouth bass, the salmon run was over. Picking blue Berrys is another fun thing to pick yourself and as a kid we ate more than we picked. They know everyone does it and they price it accordingly. Have fun seeing Michigan.

Not only is our scenery very pretty,but,Michigan has probably the best State campground system in the nation. We also hundred of thousands of acres of Federal & State campgrounds., & hundreds of private campgrounds. Since we are a water state, all camp grounds are close to water sources( inland lakes, Great Lakes, rivers & waterfalls). Also since Michigan is app.75% wooded,most campgrounds have plentiful flora & fauna. People are down right friendly too.

If the water was warmer, people wouldn't bother heading to the Caribbean for vacation. They'd head to Sleeping Bear Dunes. The water here is absolutely beautiful. But absolutely too cold most of the year to actually swim in.

Haha well there's also reefs, wild life, and islands. Very different experiences but beautiful in both respects!

I grew up in GR, 30 miles from Lake Michigan. Most summers, the water of the Big Lake warms enough to swim in, at least along the shore near Grand Haven/Muskegon. Don't give up when you first walk in. Move around, jump in, play, swim. You'll "get used to it" and then wonder why you thought it was cold.

Thank you for this helpful video! I LIVE in this region, but moved here during the pandemic. Your videos are covering great spots that were shut down, that we didn't even know about! I'm really looking forward to your Mackinac Island video, because we have not been there yet, either! (By the way, YOUR videos have enticed us to finally pull the trigger and buy a gently used Class C motorhome!) 💜💜💜

@@EatSeeRV I'm glad you showed the self-service farm stands! I've been telling my friends that we get most of our produce directly from the farmers that grew it, instead of from grocery stores. I pass by 6 farms BEFORE I can even reach a grocery store! Northern Michigan is truly God's Country!

That's amazing! I haven't seen nearly as many in the UP though. It's kind of a food desert depending on where your at.

I’ve been in that area a few years ago with a back packing trip to north manitue island and I went to sleeping bear dunes and went up and down the dunes and ran down them Really good trip

We've enjoyed your videos for a couple of years now . We're full timers also and are actually camped right now in the Traverse City State Park. Just visited Sleeping Bear Dunes yesterday. We'd love to meet up and say Hello. We particularly enjoyed your series in Mexico as we have traveled there but not in an RV. Let us know if you're still in the area.

Wow, only 23 minutes to climb the mama bear dune! That's fantastic! I didn't even try that one. Just did the Dune Climb, and didn't do the whole trail to the lake.

FYI most Michigan cherries are tart cherries, best for baking and cooking.

With the bear dunes, we guess what goes down must come up. 😀. We saw the dam candy store. Made us think of Vegas Vacation. Michigan looks like a cool place.

It was definitely tough but if I lived closer I would do that climb all the time! The water and Beach stones at the bottom we're so with it. Michigan summers are definitely moving up our must repeat list. - Dennis

@@EatSeeRV After watching your videos we have to agree with Michigan. We just never thought of Michigan as a "summer destination". Does seem pretty awesome.

🍀great video - live in southern Ontario and sadly never explored Michigan other than a few trips to Detroit. This inspires me to get out of the city limits 😊

In a sweater? Oh, yeah. My dad took us to the UP and I hadn't packed any sweaters at all so we had to buy a sweatshirt there. It was so windy by the lake!
