About Coldwater (Pop. 12,600)

Coldwater, the county seat of Branch County, is located at the junction of US-27 and US-12 also I-69 expressway runs north & south thru the city. The city reflects a careful balance of past and present, featuring a preservation of some of the finest turn-of-the-century architecture anywhere in the county (Victorian mansions along Chicago Street and Pearl Street) amidst a growing economy and contemporary development. Coldwater’s diverse economic base includes everything from the production of metal products, auto parts for the auto industry, wood furniture, play equipment and store fixtures to medical, social and community services. Tourism and cultural activities, including the famous Tibbits Opera House, to the Capri Drive-in on the west side of town, unique shops also play an important role. The many lakes that cover the county also attract tourist. Community Health Center of Branch County is located on East Chicago Street.

Coldwater was first settled in 1830 by Allen Tibbits and Joseph Hanchett. In 1833, it officially received its name, after the township, which was named for the river running through it. In 1861, a Light Artillery Battery from Coldwater, led by Commander Cyrus Loomis went to fight for the Union, going on to become one of the most renowned Regiments in the Civil War. (Some of their ten-pounder Parrott cannons can be seen downtown just across from the old Library).. Since its incorporation as a city in 1861, Coldwater has been growing steadily and continues to be a significant contributor to Michigan, US and the World.

  2. It was the last week of June and my family & I went to Coldwater Lake MI
    to get away from it all. The weather was great and we had a great time swimming,
    (the water was crystal clear)boating, skiing, (its an all sports lake) and we
    even fished some. Coldwater Lake has 1610 acres of water plus it connects to
    eight other lakes, with a total of 2,700 acres of water to enjoy. Looking forward
    to returning for a week this year. There's an island in the middle of
    Coldwater Lake, that is connected to the shore by a land bridge,
    the house we rented was on this land bridge with water on both sides of the house.
    We had a great veiw of both ends of Coldwater Lake. The sunsets were beautiful.
    The people were very friendly too. We found this rental on the internet under
    Coldwater Lake Cottage. com
