White Lake Township Lakes MI

There are 21 named White Lake Township Lakes within the township borders. About 3.5 square miles, or 9.44% of White Lake Township is water.

The township isn't one subdivision after another, in fact I would say it is rural residential, and lake homes are the typical residential style.  If you did a view from the air, you would notice that there are clusters of homes around the many White Lake Township lakes.

White Lake doesn't have a central downtown area.  You could say that M-59 is White Lake's heart.  Most of the stores, restaurants, bars/taverns, and business are along M-59.

If you can't afford the type of White Lake Township lake home you want then you might want to look at canal front homes or lake access homes.  There are some wide clean canals on Cedar Island Lake that open up to little bays.  Not the open expanse of water, but still have the ability to get out to the water without having to trailer your boat.  They will still give you access to the lake, but at a lower cost.
