And in response, OSU has ended theirs.

Personally I’d vote for another Michigan locale (Isle Royale), but the Dunes are certainly a great candidate. Enjoy!

I've got mixed feelings about promoting Michigan because I don't want it all cluttered up with people. There are too many beautiful places to pick just one. Even in the most heavily populated strip along the I 94 corridor there is some serious beauty.

I have a good friend who used to camp there, he saw it as a tie between camping there and the Manitou Islands (offshore from the Sleeping Bear Sand Dunes).

Stop for lunch at Joe’s Friendly Tavern in Empire (Yes,that’s really the name of the place) for lunch if it is still there. Haven’t been there in about 10 yrs. Beautiful country.

Nice pictures.

And on the opposite side of the state is Detroit, an incredibly non-picturesque area.
