Lake Superior Circle Tour - looking for recommendations

[emptysea]

Hello -

I am organizing my little (3 couples/6 bikes) MC group's annual trip.   This year, I've decided on going north, through Wisconsin, west to Minnesota and north and east in Canada along the shores of Lake Superior.  We'd return through the UP of MI and then back south to Illinois.  

I have most of the Wisconsin routes all planned out, having ridden enough in the area.   I need a little help, though, with things to do (hiking, fly fishing, kayaking), places to see (lighthouses, other points of interest), good lodging, and great food once we cross into Canada.  As this is a special trip in celebration of Cheryl's 60th birthday, I'd like to include at least a few stays in what might be called deluxe accommodations and certainly want to avoid any of those places with buzzing fluorescent lights in the bathroom (you know the type of place).    Has anyone taken a trip along that section of Highway 17?  I would love any feedback, positive or otherwise.  

Also, The Ferret has connected me with some articles on the area from Roadrunner, so I'm good on that front.  

Thank you all in advance.
