In 1873, the town of Gaylord was established when the prominent Jackson, Lansing, and Saginaw Railroad Company pushed north from the village of Otsego Lake. It was originally called Barnes before being changed to Gaylord to honor an attorney who worked with the Michigan Central Railroad. The settlement was platted and granted a post office in 1874. In 1905, the city started a marketing campaign to attract outside investors and residents. Gaylord became an official suburb of Michigan in 1922. More lodging establishments and restaurants sprung up as the city gained a recreational reputation. The abundance of winter snowfall, as well as the steep hills, attracted many annual tourists interested in downhill skiing. 

Most of the old train section in and around Gaylord has been converted to biking and snowmobiling trails. One of the most prominent examples of this is the 62-mile recreational North Central State Trail. This path runs parallel to Interstate 75 from Gaylord to Mackinaw City, where it connects to the 32-mile North Western State Trail. When traversing this trail, you'll likely come across the Cheboygan River, Mullett Lake, and the Historic Mill Creek Discovery Park. 

The 1,972-acre Otsego Lake in northwest Michigan is a mostly shallow lake that doesn't reach past eight feet deep in most areas. The lake is a popular destination for boating, water skiing, and paddle boarding between spring and fall. Anglers have the chance to catch lake sturgeon, yellow perch, walleye, bluegill, and largemouth bass. Enjoy the lake and surrounding land by parking your RV at the nearby 62-acre Otsego Lake State Park.
