Rosewood, Ohio. Rosewood is a smaller town in the Champaign County region of Ohio. Home to plenty of history, it was one the area of the Indians, and later a family that proceeded in living out their dreams in the same area.

The Kiser Lake region, which is part of Rosewood, was the home of Tecumseh, the great Shawnee warrior. He lived and hunted on Buck Creek near the site of present-day Urbana. It was also near here where Simon Kenton, the legendary frontiersman, was once held captive by the Shawnee. Kenton admired the Shawnee for choosing such a beautiful area in which to reside. He remembered the area well and returned later in his life. Around 1802, Kenton settled in Urbana for several years. His remains lie in Oakdale Cemetery, southeast of Urbana under an impressive monument.

Kiser Lake was a dream of John Kiser and his family. Their idea was to create a lake in the Mosquito Valley area. It was a prime spot because it was low, swampy and dotted with numerous springs. In 1932, the Kiser family offered to the state of Ohio several hundred acres of the Mosquito Creek Valley. In the late 1930s, a dam was constructed and the new lake was named Kiser becoming part of what is now Kiser Lake State Park. The lake is nearly 2.5 miles in length and has 5 miles of shoreline.
