The townsfolk and tourists of Rosseau in the late 19th century and early 20th century used to welcome visitors arriving by steamboat along the shore.
They would sing the Rosseau Song (arrival song) as the steamboat approached:
"Oh we'll sing a little song of Rosseau,
It's the best old town that I know..."
