4 electric motor only lakes in Bloomfield MI

When thinking about buying a lake home you have to prioritize what you want.  You may want an active sports lake so you can pull the kids tubing, or race around on a jet ski.  With that type of lake you will have some boat noise.  Most lakes in Metro Detroit do not have lake hours.  One that does i Walnut Lake in West Bloomfield Township.  What I mean by “lake hours” is that there is a law or rules that prohibits you from operating a boat at high speed or towing somebody behind the boat early in the morning or late at night.  I believe off the top of my head Walnut Lake’s lake hours is from 6 PM at night until 10 AM the next morning you cannot do either of those two things.

If you want a quiet lake with no jet skis or power boats you want a electric motor only lake.  That way you will have piece and quiet.  If you prefer a waterfront home in Bloomfield Township or Bloomfield Hills here are videos and information on 4 lakes.  I have also included one lake house for sale in each of these lakes.
