If you didn't know Square Lake in Oakland County lies in both West Bloomfield and Bloomfield. It is a smaller all sports lake but big enough to ski and tube on. It lies close to Telegraph making your drive to work a little easier. The lake has both condos and homes on it. The lake homes on Robbin Lake in West Bloomfield are a mixed lot. All different styles. I saw one house on Uplong Street that was very unique and did not even have a full garage. The lake is more of a paddle boat lake than a swimming lake.
Like most of the homes in Bloomfield Crescent Lake homes in Bloomfield are on city water and sewer. I would say the majority of lake homes in Bloomfield Twp and Bloomfield Hills are on paved roads too. It is the same way with Lakefront condos on Wabeek Lake Bloomfield MI. They are on paved road with city water and sewer. They are nestled in the Wabeek Subdivision. What I like is that many of the trees are what I call mature tree. Big tree with nice canopies.
If you turn left onto Walnut Lake Road off Haggerty you will see the homes on Pleasant Lake in West Bloomfield. Just as you make the curve the lake is on the right. You can see some of the homes from the road. It almost seems countryish. This is not what I would call a true subdivision lake. There are many different sizes and styles of homes. Some people will not like the lake because of that, but there are many other lakes in West Bloomfield that do have the subdivision feel.
