Curry Park & RV Campground (Ironwood City Park)
Overview
Curry Park & RV Campground serves as a welcoming gateway for travelers entering Michigan’s Upper Peninsula. Managed by the City of Ironwood, this municipal park offers a blend of natural beauty and local convenience. It is well-regarded for its clean facilities and mature trees that provide a sense of seclusion despite its proximity to town services. Whether you are beginning a cross-country trek or exploring the Northwoods, this park provides a reliable and wooded retreat for many types of RVers looking for a peaceful night's rest.
Location & Surroundings
The park is strategically located right along US Highway 2, making it incredibly easy to find and access for large rigs. It sits on the western edge of Ironwood, just a short distance from the Wisconsin border. Despite being close to the highway, the sites are tucked into a lush forest canopy, offering shade and a refreshing Northwoods atmosphere. The surrounding area is characterized by the rugged terrain of Gogebic County, with the Montreal River flowing nearby, marking the scenic boundary between Michigan and Wisconsin.
Amenities & Park Features
Travelers will find well-maintained paved pads that help simplify the leveling process for various rig sizes. The campground provides essential services to keep your journey moving, including:
- Water and electric hookups at most sites
- A convenient on-site dump station for waste management
- Modern playground equipment for children
- Picnic tables and fire rings for evening gatherings
The park is also pet-friendly, allowing you to bring your dogs along for the adventure through the shaded walking paths scattered throughout the grounds.
Nearby Attractions & Things to Do
Ironwood is a hub for outdoor enthusiasts, and Curry Park sits at the center of the action. Just a short walk away is the massive Hiawatha statue, a local landmark standing over 50 feet tall. A short drive north leads to the Black River Scenic Byway, where visitors can hike to several spectacular waterfalls before reaching the shores of Lake Superior. In any season, the nearby Copper Peak provides breathtaking views of three states and Canada from its famous vista point.
Who This Park Is Best For
This park is ideal for cross-country travelers looking for a safe, paved, and easy-access stopover during a long journey. It also serves as a perfect base camp for waterfall chasers and hikers who want to explore the Ottawa National Forest without sacrificing proximity to grocery stores and local dining. If you prefer a community-focused atmosphere over a remote wilderness site, Curry Park offers the right balance of nature and city accessibility.

Kim Jones
Lovely campground by the side of the road in Ironwood. Stopped twice on a trip to and from Minnesota. Very reasonable rates, full hook up sites if needed. Clean showers. Quiet campground. Would stay again.
Tristan Jacobucci
Really enjoyed my 1 night stay here, the camp host lady was very friendly, prompt, and she actually let us moved to a different spot since as the one we booked didn't have much shade and was kind of close to the busy road with my dog. Shower and bathroom facilities were older but very clean. Would definitely stay again.

Very nice campground that is very convenient right off of route two, however being so close to the road, it is noisy especially if you're in a tent like i was. That was to be expected though. Sites did not appear to be very level, although I believe that is listed on the reservation site. Overall a nice campground

Very nice campground for a quick night or two. The full hook-up spots are very close to each other with no shade. The electric only spots offer a little shade and are not on top of each other. The bath house was clean and functional. There are 2 spickets for potable water and a dump station. The park is adjacent to a moderately busy road. I wouldn't hesitate to stay here again. I paid 40 per night. If I was to stay here again, I'd choose the electric only site for some shade and breathing room from my neighbor(s).

Very nice campground. Nothing fancy but clean, level sites, nice bathhouse, cleanest shower of any campground we’ve stayed. We were on back row and didn’t have road noise, pretty quiet. Verizon WiFi was good.
