History

Station North Road is a major sandy forest access road running north-south along the western boundary of Whitefish Township's state forest lands, just west of downtown Paradise, Michigan. Station North Road acts as a crucial boundary marker for the Michigan Department of Natural Resources (DNR), running roughly parallel to M-123 and dead-ending north at the scenic Betsy River.
