Did a quick 2 night trip up to Sleeping Bea Dunes National Lakeshore in late August. One night in the campground (can you say crowded?) and then went ot the White Pine backcountry campground. Tent camping (Sorry) both night. I brought the WBBB along just becasue I could. Two nights of sleeping on the ground was all it took to convince the GF that hammocks are the way to go. I set up the BB in camp and she jumped in and I went about my business, she was aslpeep within 5 minutes.
Enjoy!
Till the video embeds.......

If God had meant for us to sleep on the ground,
He wouldn't have created trees....

Deep peace of the running wave to you.
Deep peace of the flowing air to you.
Deep peace of the quiet earth to you.
Deep peace of the shining stars to you.
Deep peace without end to you.

Great Report
If you know where to go in that area you can escape the crowds.
The lakeshore sunsets are great, and beach strolling can't be any better anywhere.

I would feel more optimistic about a bright future for man if he spent less time proving that he can outwit Nature and more time tasting her sweetness and respecting her seniority. - E. B. White (1899 - 1985)
