Do you get bored on a small lake? Many people would love to live on a chain of lakes, but there is not a chain of lakes in West Bloomfield. So your alternative is to look for some of the biggest lakes in West Bloomfield. That way you have the room to zoom around in a power boat, or have room to sail. Maybe for you it is all about being able to water ski, surf, or wake board without being on top of other boats. Or maybe you want a longer pontoon ride.....you don't want to be around the lake in fifteen minutes. These may be all big concerns for you when buying a lake homes in West Bloomfield.
My goal here today is to give you a list of the best of the large lakes in West Bloomfield in Oakland Count MI. They are all beautiful lakes and have various sizes of waterfront homes. You will see all ages, styles, elevations, and types of exteriors on the homes. Below I have listed basic information about the 8 largest lakes in West Bloomfield. Many home buyers love West Bloomfield homes because the township is centrally located, has good schools, shopping, low crime, and prestige.
Some are all sports lakes, some are electric motor only lakes. So you have your choice of being active, or relaxing on a quiet non-all sports lake. If you have questions and looking for your dream lake home give me a call.
