You may have heard the saying about the dying man. He never said he wished he worked another day. He wished he spent more time enjoying life. You should start too. There are so many things to enjoy on a lake. The laughter of children playing in the water is sure to put a smile on your face. Think about being able to spend the day with family and friends on the lake. So many great memories to be made when you buy a lake home. I know I live on the lake myself.

Watson Lake in Livingston County is an all sports lake that is part of the Half Moon chain of Lakes. Some people call it the Pinckney Chain of Lakes. There is public access on the chain and most of the lakes are all sports lakes.
What is nice about this chain of lakes as compared to the Portage Chain is that the lakes are surrounded by Pinckney State Recreation area. There are sections of the lakes that are undeveloped. Some of the other lakes that are on the chain are Bruin Lake, Patterson Lake, and Half Moon Lake

Watson Lakefront homes are not big. I would call this more of a "cottage" looking lake. Most of the lakefront homes range from 700 square feet to 1500 square feet. They are mostly small ranches. Most of the lakefront homes werre built between the 1940's and 1970's.
Most Watson Lake properties have between 40' and 95' of lake frontage.
There have been no homes sold between January & November 2012 on the lake.
Here is a list of lakefront homes that I know that sold between 2003 and 11/2011. At least you have an idea of what the lake prices have been.
ADDRESS | CLOSED DATE | LIST PRICE | SALE PRICE | SP PER SQFT | SQ FT | BEDS | BATHS |

So many times I will get calls from potential lake home buyers. They have is expecting a similar pricing to non lake homes. Some buyers think there may be just a slight increase in the price of a lake home. In 2014 I have been telling lake home buyers that it is hard to find even a cottage that is in good shape under $200,000 on a big all sports lake. Many in the under $200,000 have major issues. There are just not that many lake homes on big all sports lakes under $200,000.
To find a "normal home" or "normal ranch home" on a good sized all Sports Lake with a basement under $250,000 is hard to find too. There are so few of them. You will find more of them in the $275 - $325,000 range.
Modern updated homes are harder to find on a lake. If you want that modern house on good lakefront lot (not on a narrow lot) you most likely are going to be paying $500,000 + to find a nice modern lake home with the modern amenities with open layout, granite counter tops, and nice master bedroom suite. You are probably going to be closer to $600,000 + range.
This is just some of what you can expect when buying a lake home in 2014
