Michigan has a plethora of State Parks, all over, including the UP. All have W & E sites, and shower and toilet facilities but generally, no septic hook up. But they all have dump stations.

Camping has gotten incredibly popular. Wherever you decide to stay, private or State parks, I strongly recommend making reservations well in advance. Last minute you might be able to find a vacant site for two consecutive nites, but no more.
September is my favorite month to camp in MI. Weather can be 50's and rainy or gloriously sunny and mild. And no bugs!
You can reserve in advance on line on DNR website. State forest camp grounds have no hook up, vault toilets, fire rings, picnic tables, and water, hand pump or faucet. No dump site. Camping is FCFS, and sites will generally be available, unless it's a holiday weekend.
I love sharing my beautiful home, but spur of the moment camping is getting more difficult.
