This is a large wooded site within Rose Lake Forest. It measures 65 feet across the front (on Shores Drive), 95 feet across the back, and averages 179 feet deep. The property backs up to Brown Park, a wooded strip of unused greenbelt which gives extra elbow room. Shores Drive is a public County road, maintained and plowed by Osceola County year 'round.

Here's what's special:

• Beautiful property, sloping downhill to a large flat site (high and dry).
• Driveway easement allows for a gently sloping driveway.
• Suitable for stick built homes, and/or camping (no mobile homes on this one)
• Electric and telephone service are at the road, and can be easily installed if and when you want.
• You're a one minute drive, or a six minute walk from the lake and bathrooms.

All corners are well-marked, per the original survey.

Note: I had already arranged to have a driveway put in and a campsite cleared but, the guy I hired, his wife died before he got to the job, and I don't think he's going to come back and do it. If you buy this and have the driveway put in yourself, obviously you'll save some money at the way this is priced now. Once the driveway goes in, the price goes up.

Private, members-only access to Rose Lake

Rose Lake is a jewel of the North. A natural lake, 373 acres in size; spring fed, the water is clear and the fishing is great. Rose Lake is an all-sports lake. That means you can fish, swim, water-ski, pull a tube behind your boat, or just put-put around in a pontoon and grill steaks (that's what I like to do).

This property gives you access to a 200 foot private, members-only beach. There's a large designated swimming area with a sandy bottom, and on the other side an area to pull up boats. It's a place you'll feel safe letting your teens walk to. You don't have to walk though, it's all county road, and there's parking and bathrooms just above the beach area. You're two minutes away from the lake, and you don't even have to make reservations!

As a property owner here, you'll be a member of the Rose Lake Forest Property Owners Association. Yearly dues are $85 for the first lot, and $30 apiece for each additional lot you own. As a member, you'll get a set of keys and a sticker for your windshield, which gives you the use of all this:

• Access to 200 foot private member's-only beach on Rose Lake.
• A bath house with toilet and shower
• Bathrooms at the beach.
• Sanitary station to dump the black and gray-water tanks in your camper
• Clean and pure water well to fill your camper's tank with fresh water
• Dumpsters to take your trash
• Ball diamond.
• Kids playground
• Access to over 120 acres of common private parks where you can ride trail bikes and four-wheelers.

Use your keys to let yourself in any time, WITHOUT having to find someone "on duty", or ask permission, and all at No Extra Cost.

Camp for as long as you want. Leave your camper here, as long as you want, even year 'round. Most people eventually put in their own well and septic, but you don't have to right away, or ever, until and unless you want to. Can you tell me any other place in Michigan where you can own the land, and still have a sanitary place to get fresh water and dump your camper waste tanks, any time you want without digging your own well and septic? (Note: Bathrooms are closed in the winter so they won't freeze)

Put up your own shed or garage if you want to store your boat, snowmobile, or trail bike. Later, when you're ready, you can build a cottage, or put in a mobile home (mobile homes restricted on some lots). This land is a prime building site-- every one has been perc tested and certified buildable. There's plenty of room to do as you please.

The property is subject to a few common sense restrictions. You can read about them here.

You'll want to see the beach, the pavilion, and everything else-- and know what you're getting before you buy. Once you're inside Rose Lake Forest, the best way to find your way around is with a map.
