Rose Oaks is a great park for people that want to take their children too show them real nature and not the stuff behind glass cages. My father owned most of the land along Fish Lake Rd where the park is located now and I explored the area extensively. Ester Lake has some giant bluegills, Crappie, Bass and Pike and also my father's ice spud. My father built that stone BBQ over looking Ester Lake when I was a kid. That grill must be 60 years old.
Thanks for sharing that info! I am going to add the picture of the barbecue.
