Rose Creek is a suburb of south Fargo along the banks of the Red River, made up of single-family homes that circle the Rose Creek Golf Course. People here have easy access to trails and parks, both inside the neighborhood and along the Red River, which runs along the east side. Despite being just 6 miles south of Downtown Fargo, the community offers a high level of privacy, with fencing and mature trees surrounding it.
There are a few townhouses in Rose Creek, but for the most part, it’s filled with single-family homes built from the 1980s to the early 2000s. You’ll see contemporary ranch-style homes and New Traditional designs throughout the area featuring stone and brick exteriors, multicar garages and either hipped or cross-gabled roofs. The lots are spacious and well-kept. Most homes cost somewhere between the mid-$400,000s and the mid-$500,000s. But the larger they get, especially paired with golf course views, they run higher — from the mid-$600,000s to over $1 million.
Rose Creek has a quiet suburban atmosphere where it’s easy to get to know your neighbors because they’re investing long term in the area. “There aren't really renters. It's all homes that are owned for the most part," says Rachel Rogen, a Realtor with a decade of experience at eXp Realty. She adds that owners have taken pride in Rose Creek from the beginning. “It was one of the original really nice neighborhoods in Fargo. A lot of young people are moving in and remodeling."
Rose Creek Golf Course is an 18-hole public course designed for players of all skill levels; you can also take lessons there from PGA professionals. The golf course has multiuse trails winding through it. “People will walk, run, snowshoe, all that kind of stuff [on the trails],” Rogen says, noting that people still use the trails when the course is closed seasonally, during the winter months. Fargo also has an extensive trail system that follows the Red River, and you can hop right on it from Rose Creek. “It will take you all the way through the community, down to the river, and from one side of town to the other,” Rogen says. “Different sections of the trail are called different things."
Additional ways to enjoy some time outside:
The peacefulness of suburban life, being able to walk to parks, the golf course and a local school all appeal to families. “It started as a family-friendly neighborhood and stayed that way. It has a lot of big two-story homes,” Rogen says. Centennial Elementary School and Discovery Middle School are both just outside the community. Backyards are big enough for trampolines, and playgrounds, sidewalks and nearby trails support daily walking and activity. Shopping, restaurants and services are a quick drive away, but you’re not in the middle of it all.
CJ’s Tavern is a popular happy hour stop located on the golf course, with a classic Americana menu. Outside of this spot, most head to nearby 52nd Avenue and South University Drive to dine out. Restaurants include local haunts like Cork ‘N Cleaver, an upscale steakhouse, or Frank's Lounge, a casual bar. There are also fast-food chains like Burger King and Sonic Drive-In. The closest market is Cash Wise Foods, which is also in this same area.
