Agate is a place in Interior Township Ontonagon County on M-28, about eight miles east of Bruce Crossing. Agate Falls Scenic Site on the middle branch of the Ontonagon River is nearby. It was originally known as Agate Siding, after the spur from the Duluth, South Shore and Atlantic Railway (now the Soo Line Railroad) created in about 1890 to serve nearby mining operations. It was named for the agate stone.
A post office was in operation between 1926-1937.
