Curran is a small town with smallest population in western Alcona County. Farm, raising cattle and hay, are scattered through the area. South of Curran are the Hoist Lakes Foot Travel Area and Reid Lake Foot Travel area. Hoist is great for hiking, backpacking, bird watching, cross-country skiing, hunting, fishing and nature study with over 20 miles of trails, more for the experienced cross-country skier in mind. Reid has about six miles of gentle, rolling trails that are good for beginning skiers. Crooked Lake and McCollum Lakes, both have public access for boaters and fishermen.
