Iargo Springs

Iargo Springs is one of the most beautiful attractions in Oscoda Township, with panoramic views of the famous AuSable River, wildflowers in bloom, and, of course, the natural spring itself. It’s no wonder Native American’s considered the traditional drinking source to be sacred ground for hundreds of years and believed the site’s waters held mystical powers. The springs are also a main feature on the River Road Scenic Byway, a nationally recognized piece of natural beauty. Climb to the observation deck 300 feet above the Au Sable River for an absolutely breathtaking view of the AuSable River Valley below you. That’s not all that this holy site has to offer, though, as those willing to walk the 294-step descent will enter a truly mystical place where the underground Iargo Springs conjoin to form a cold water stream.
