Keep it Simple: Good water, good memories at Irontone Springs | Opinion
I have returned to Irontone Springs Roadside Park over and over over the years for the simple reason it speaks to me — offering up the essence of nature and charm here in Northern Michigan. Irontone, aka Frank Wilkinson Park, sits on the east side of Old 27 halfway between Gaylord and Vanderbilt, with a lovely narrow north/south stream named Mossback Creek gently flowing its length. Two wooden foot bridges allow visitors access from the parking lot to this quietly unassuming gem of Otsego County with its picnic tables and pavilion, all reeking of pastoral serenity. It has long been a favorite setting for wedding and senior portrait photo shoots, and with good reason. The water and mature trees are a perfect backdrop for such activities and the pavilion is always a draw for family reunions and other festive occasions.

At the end of March last year Irontone Springs, like most of the county, had its bell severely rung after the ice storm of all ice storms
