The north shore is very beautiful, lots of parks.  Besides the places
mentioned already, be sure and stop at Pancake Bay which is about an hour
west of Sault St. Marie.  It is a large shallow, and sandy bay.  Because it
is so shallow, it is one of the few places to swim without a wetsuit.

Feel free to email me when you go...I live on the shore.  Be glad to fix
you up with a cup of joe.
