Thinking of driving from the Soo to Thunder Bay sometime this summer. Is it necessary to get advance reservations between those two or driveup OK for campgrounds? Don't need hookups but would be nice to have.

Weekends are always tight in the summer.
Especially for longer trailers with electric.

Just reserved 2 days midweek late July at Sleeping Giant.
There were about 10 spots left. That's mid-week.

North of Superior, Ontario, I've never had a problem, especially if you don't require hook ups. We have also used rest areas and gas stations/truck stops, without any issues. This is in July and August. May, first 1/2 June and after Labour Day, definitely no problems.

That sure cuts down on flexibility. I have some reservations which are MUST stops but didn't think I would need to tie down every stop. Ugh!

Anything East of the Mississippi River, you better get reservations if you want to be sure you get a spot. Especially anywhere in Michigan for the Summer months. And actually, it may already be too late for this year.
