I lived in Rutland in the early 50s and there was certainly no state park there at that time, nor have I ever heard of there being one at any time.

Heard a rumor that Rose Mill may have been a state park back in the forties or fifties & there might have been an Iowa Conservation (Now Iowa DNR), Park Ranger stationed there . . .
Does anyone know anything about this? Any information would be appreciated.
Thank you,
