Campgrounds near Irishtown-Summerside
Irishtown-Summerside sits on the north shore of Humber Arm in the Bay of Islands, on Newfoundland's west coast about 20 km from Corner Brook. The town works well as a base for RV renters combining shoreline camping in the Bay of Islands with a longer swing up Route 430 into Gros Morne National Park, roughly one to two hours north.
Options in the immediate area lean toward smaller, scenic parks. Blow Me Down Provincial Park sits on a peninsula between Lark and York Harbours, off Highway 450 about 60 km west of Corner Brook. Elephants Head RV Park and Gros Morne Glamping and Lomond River Lodge Campground offer private-sector alternatives closer to the park's east entrance.
Inside Gros Morne, Lomond Campground sits on the shores of Bonne Bay near the East Arm, and Trout River Pond Campground anchors the south end of the park, on the edge of Trout River Pond and overlooking the Tablelands. Sites in both national and provincial parks are unserviced, so plan for fresh water, dump stops, and battery use accordingly.
Things to do near Irishtown-Summerside
The Bay of Islands is built for water and mountain days. Blow Me Down Provincial Park features a cobble salt water beach in the day use area, plus a lookout with views over the harbours and hiking access into the Blow Me Down Mountains. These mountains cover 200 km2 and rise to a height of 750 metres at Round Hill, and contain some of the best exposures of ophiolitic rock on earth.
Gros Morne is the anchor attraction to the north. From Trout River Pond Campground visitors have close access to the Tablelands for iconic hiking, and can dine in the nearby fishing community of Trout River and stroll the waterfront boardwalk. From Lomond Campground there is a boat launch on the East Arm of Bonne Bay plus access to Stuckless Pond Trail. Rocky Harbour, roughly midway, has grocery stops for restocking the RV.
