We stopped in while traveling up north and were pleasantly surprised to find a cute little wine tasting room in the small town of West Branch, of all places. I've been to West Branch several times before (we usually stay at a cabin on the water with our friends), but I've never seen anything associated with a winery here before, so I had absolutely no idea what I was missing! They had quite an array of reasonably-priced wines, starting around $11 and going up from there to around $22 per bottle. We were offered a free wine sampling of a couple of different varieties, including a semi-dry, but buttery chardonnay ($11), which had a nice, rich flavor for a lower-priced bottle of wine. I would recommend that anyone who likes white wines. It was a hit with me after just one sip. It wasn't too dry or too sweet. It had some nice, subtle notes that I could detect afterward. Next, we tried a chocolate wine. My husband was very hesitant at first, but came around on it after giving it a chance. I liked it, myself, too. It was a richer wine, probably not for everybody's taste, but I found it quite suitable. We were told it was infused with Mackinac Island Fudge, so that must be what gave it its incredibly distinct chocolate taste. If you like chocolate or fudge, this one is a winner. The manager/owner suggested mixing it with Modern Craft's cherry wine for optimal effect. He said the two bring out the best notes in each other. He then paired them together for me and you know what? He was right. Count me in! Another winner. He was both engaging and quite knowledgeable about the wines they had in stock. He definitely knew his stuff. Beyond that, there were several other interesting wines at a mid-range price point that looked worth trying, including a blackberry wine and a variety of lighter, fruity wines, suitable for a summer evening. They had a special on some discontinued seasonal wine, running about 50% off, which was a bargain. Aside from the tasting room, the space is home to a small gift shop featuring home decor and accessories. I didn't bother to check it out too well, but looking around I saw some cute things that I would like. I wish I had taken a little more time to check out the gift shop as well, but I focused my visit solely on the wine tasting. I'm really glad we stopped in. It made for most pleasant side trip foray. I would never have known this place was here if I hadn't decided to stop into town just to look around for an hour or two.

From what I am told, it's a great course, with nicely manicured greens and the management is first class. I have had lunch and dinner here. The lunch is great! They give you huge portions...I think they could easily chop them in half and people would be fine with that. Dinner is also good here. I had the root beer chicken. It sounded interesting, but was so good! It was served with wonderful mashed potatoes and asparagus spears. Everything was cooked perfectly. I am surprised it isn't busier than it is. I guess it's just a hidden gem in a West Branch. When you visit the area, be sure to stop in for a game of golf or a bite to eat.

Set in a quiet, forest setting, the statue and onyx walls honor our firefighters. Names of those fallen in the line of duty are inscribed on the base below the statue and many of our past firefighters from throughout Michigan, have their names inscribed on the walls around it. The statue depicts a firefighter carrying a small child in one arm and a lantern in his other hand. The third Saturday of September each year there is a memorial service held by the statue. The statue is maintained by the Michigan Firefighters Association. The statue was erected in 1984. In addition, the Michigan Firemen's Memorial Festival Committee sponsors a festival at the Roscommon Fire Training grounds, Thursday through Sunday the third weekend of September. This is a family event with rides for children, displays, vendors, and fire related competitions. Saturday following the Memorial service there is a parade of fire apparatus, etc and a chicken dinner at the grounds.
