Rockford, MI

29 1 Bedroom Apartments for Rent

Located 40 miles east of Lake Michigan and just a few miles north of Grand Rapids, Rockford is one of West Michigan's most beautiful cities, a welcoming and captivating land of 5,719 residents (at last count in the 2010 U.S. Census) that possesses all the amenities of a 21st century town while at the same time managing to retain its traditional charm. Rockford's community really does take pride in their town, a sentiment that is reflected through the abundance of well-maintained, family-owned stores, boutiques and restaurants that make up downtown. However, Rockford's virtue isn't only its commercial prosperity. In fact, what really makes Rockford stand out is its natural beauty, and in particular the Rogue River, a river that runs through downtown and which functions as an integral aspect of the town's identity. Residents can kayak, canoe, or fish on the river throughout the year. But if getting wet isn't for you then don't worry, this river is so integral to Rockford that somebody had the excellent idea to build an even more excellent pathway that overlooks the river, and which leads to the White Pine Trail, one of the most popular nature preserves in Michigan. The pathway is located right next to the riverside stores and offers a peaceful and picturesque retreat -- though, really, people love living in Rockford so much that there isn't much need to retreat from anything.
