This summer straight-line winds did some major damage in West Michigan, wiping out huge old trees and redecorating some of the landscape. One of the places hit particularly hard was Roselle Park, near Grand Rapids. Luckily, Roselle Park is as beautiful as ever. We took a trip there about a week after the storm hit and even though there was still some damage that was evident, clean up crews had been hard at work restoring the park.

Roselle Park is located at 1010 Grand River Dr NE Ada, MI and features 240 acres with paved trails, an observation deck, playground area with climbing wall, prairie, wetlands, forest, and beautiful river shoreline. For those of you with high school seniors, it’s also a great place to go for senior photos.
