We've kind of done at least some of this trip, going up to Denmark and then back to Berlin, we didn't have time to take Sweden in too.
We went up through Germany to catch the Scandi Lines Puttgarden-Rødby ferry.
We stayed at Camping Lubeck for a couple of days, it was about 3/4-1hr run from Lubeck to Puttgarden. A lot of people use Camping Lubeck as a stop off for/from the ferry, I don't know of a nearby stellplatz. Fortunately Lubeck is a pleasant place to visit and theres a bus that goes from near the campsite into the city.
We went up to Copenhagen and stayed at Camping Charlottenlund Fort, a really lovely campsite that gets very busy and people turning up on spec get turned away, there's a bus that goes from nearby into Copenhagen.
The bridge to Sweden was nearby but there's also a Scandi Lines ferry between Helsingor to Helsingborg which I've heard is cheaper than the toll on the bridge.
Coming back from Denmark we took the Scandi-Lines Gedser-Rostockrun, from there it was about 3 hours down to Berlin.
We stayed outside of Berlin though, choosing to stay in Potsdam at Campingpark Sanssouci, the reviews tell you all you need to know about the site. The palace at Sanssouci is worth a visit, Potsdam itself is within the Travel Berlin network (a pass that allows you to travel on all of the public transport networks - well worth getting). Berlin deserves a good few days to visit, I'd recommend booking in advance though if you want to go up the Riechstag dome, it's free but very popular which is why an advance booking is essential.
We headed back west from Berlin after that, it was a good hard two day slog in very hot weather to get from Berlin to the Netherlands, you forget just how far east Berlin is, I'd recommend putting some effort into breaking up the journey.
Hope some of this is of use to you.
