Bates Township
Bates Township is located next to the city of Iron River in the Upper Peninsula of Michigan. Our beautiful area offers year-round recreation. We invite you to enjoy this moment in Bates Township.
Welcome Home
Bates Township is “home” for many of our residents who have descended from the township’s earliest Settlers. For others, this is the community that you have chosen for a variety of reasons to call “home.”
Our township is rich in history and our citizens are strong in spirit! However it is that you made your way here; at this moment in time…we would like to say welcome home!
