Beaverton, Michigan - 48612

Beaverton is located in southeastern Gladwin County at the junction of the Cedar and Tobacco Rivers. It was founded in 1890 by Donald Gunn Ross & Sons, lumbermen from Beaverton, Ontario. This town was first named Grand Forks because of its position on the 2 rivers, but was later named Beaverton by the Ross’s in tribute to their Canadian home town.

The main feature of this area is the dam, which creates a scenic pond up both rivers. You can also get some good fishing in either below the dam, or in the park above on the pond.
