Rose Lake Cemetery is in Kootenai County, Idaho. Though technically speaking, the community of Rose Lake no longer exists, however the residents will disagree. The community namesake is the nearby Rose Lake.

Rose Lake Cemetery is approximately 1.25 acres and nestled among towering pine trees and the residents prefer to keep this way. Cared for by local residents, organizing an annual cleanup of the cemetery. The cemetery is organized in small family areas and cared for by family members. There are several homemade grave markers and some more traditional granite headstones. What is most interesting the residents have preserved the "original grave" and built a white picket fence around it with a small sign indicating its location. It is somewhat isolated from the rest of the cemetery.
