What are the biggest lakes in Oakland County?  If you are looking for a large lake check out my list of Oakland County MI lake sizes in acres.  When buying a lake house in Oakland County Michigan one of the important factors you are goin to consider beside the home is the size of the lake.  You may want a quiet smaller lake just to relax on.  You may be perfectly happy relaxing on a small pond like lake watching the fish jump, or a swan swimming by.  Or you may want a mid size lake because you don't want a busy lake where all you hear is the sound of motor boats.  Some lake home buyers prefer large lakes to water ski, tube, surf, knee board or wakeboard on.  They need a larger lake to do these water activities.  Some lakefront home want large lakes because they do not want to get bored by going round and round in a little circle.  They want to be on the lake for an hour or more without seeing the same houses.  When you buy a lake house in Oakland County it is all about your personal preference on what size of a lake you want.  Big or small Oakland County Michigan has them all.  We do not have huge lakes like we do up north.  The largest lake in the county is Cass Lake at 1280 acres.

Here is a list of most of the Oakland County Lakes by size and in acres.  I left all the very small lakes that were under two acres.  I myself consider that a small pond.  You will find those types of lakes/ponds scattered all throughout Oakland County and in subdivisions.  I have researched and got these lake sizes from many different sources.  So sometimes there are discrepancies between what is here and what you may hear.  Many times home owners on the lake will have a different acreage than what DNR maps or other sources may say.  The most accurate source I use is Michigan DNR maps but they only cover public lakes.  Depending on the source sometimes we get multiple answers on how big the Oakland County lake is.  I have tried to be as accurate as possible, but there are some lakes that I estimated the size because no one knew how big the lake was.

   How big an Oakland County lake is in acres does contribute sometimes to the homes value.  Usually homes on big all sports lakes bring a bigger price per square foot than a smaller lake.  However that is not always true.  Sometimes the city the lake lies in commands a huge price per square foot.  I hope this aids you in finding your dream home.  Feel free to reach out to me as I really know our local lakes.  For more information go to any of my lake websites to search for homes.  Click here
