The charm and the draw, again IMHO, is the unspoiled, unpopulated, back to nature opportunities that still abound in the UP. You won't find "long lines at every store" in the UP. You won't find the "street full of balloon shops along the beach front". You won't find the row of fast food places in every town and you won't find the "RV luxury resorts" with every amenity and free bus service to town"... Reason: There's probably no town to go to.....
What you will find in the UP (along with the mosquitoes and black flies) is a place you can walk with nature, stop and watch the waves break along the rocky shoreline and not see another "human with an ice cream cone" all afternoon.... That, to me, is the "charming piece that makes the UP even more of a destination rather than a way to move from the city to a summer housing area.

Thank you I know how piece full it is. Have visited my brother who lived in Pickford a few times before his passing. But never been there camping or with the wife who has never been to the UP. we just purchased a 5th wheel and plan on making the trip next year. Been looking for places to park the camper and then drive and see the beautiful places.
