Rose City Michigan Is A Place Of Scenery

By Katrina Wheeler


A tiny town in northwestern Michigan, called Rose City, is located in Ogemaw County. Shops are spotted throughout the town, carrying various merchandise, handcrafted items as well as general food. The best part about this city is the beautiful scenery that is visible everywhere.

Allen S. Rose founded this city in 1875, although he called in Churchill. It was later renamed after him, which is how it got its current name. Allen Rose was originally located in New York City but he moved to Michigan. In 1892 when the railroad started to go through the town, it changed many things. It also would lead to the city being incorporated in 1905.

Most people here hold factory jobs, mainly in the plastics, machinery and auto part fields, but there is still a good percentage of people that work at the small shops throughout the city. The general age of people here is 44.6 and the number of people in the area is around 653.

An amazing area of wilderness with 4,449 acres is located a mere three miles from the city! It is a large, beautiful recreational area. It used to be privately owned, but it was snatched up and thankfully made available to everyone. This is a great area for nature loving activities. You can do things like cross-country skiing, fishing, boating, hunting, swimming, canoeing and hiking.

How would it be to be totally relaxed, calm, and not have to worry about a thing, even for just a short while? You could be out on a boat or canoe, rowing down the calm river. Letting the sun smile upon your beautiful skin, slightly warming your cheeks. This would be one of the best opportunities you could get to get close to Mother Nature again.

There is a glorious place that has a 70 acre lake, and has paddle boats available for you to rent so you can take advantage of the scenery. If you are not one for nature there are shops that you can visit locally as well as take a short 30 minute drive and go visit some stores in the mall.

A great thing about this area is that it has several vehicle repair, collision, and paint businesses, or if you are in the market for a new or used car they offer that too! In the horrible event that something were to happen to your car while on vacation, you would have no trouble getting it fixed, and you could be back to enjoying your vacation again.

Do you have a family with a complex variety of taste buds? Well no fear! There are many great eating establishments that this area has to offer. There is the common fast food places as well as unique non chain restaurants. These are great for a one time experience and some real home cooked food.

If you like hunting, fishing, biking, hiking or anything that gets you out in nature, Rose City, Michigan would be the perfect place for you. You can really connect with nature here. If you do not like nature then there is always the opportunity to shop!
