About 35 miles east of Grand Rapids, sits a town called Ionia, Michigan. Prior to European settlers arriving, the local Native Americans used the area for farming purposes due to the prime soil and proximity to water. European explorers settled the area in the mid-1800s.

Ionia remains mostly farmland to this day. The river flowing through the southern end of town provides a perfect amount of water to keep the plants, animals, and the rest of the crops thriving. It's also great for swimming during the hot summer season. If you're looking to explore the unique history of Michigan, book an RV in Ionia and get ready for the adventure of a lifetime.
