There is a small group of little lakes just east of the homes on Union Lake and south of Cooley Lake Rd. There are five of them
- Mercedes Lake
- Quicksand Lake
- Cross Lake
- Scotch Lake
- Lake Marion
None of them are all sports, but they are all private lakes. I would call them more like ponds than a lake. They are good for paddling around on and watching nature and the weather on the lake. It’s great to see duck splashing around in the fall, the swans slowly swimming by, or a deer coming up to get a drink from the lake.
A beautiful fall day on the Lake
There are no homes on Marion Lake. There is a condominium complex called Locklin Pines. Many of the condos on Lake Marion have nice decks to watch the sunsets and to relax on. It’s almost like living in a forest with all the mature trees in the complex and around the lake. If you want a longer walk, there is a walking/biking path right outside Locklin Pines. Enjoy fishing from a boat or the shore.
Walk or bike the extensive wooded grounds through mature hardwoods and conifers and feel like you are up north. Enjoy the private lake with sandy beach, dock, and community boats. HOA fees maintain roof, siding, original windows/exterior doors, grounds/lake, trash and snow removal. West Bloomfield school district. Paved private roads in the complex.

Living on the water has more benefits than it's natural beauty. It can provide health benefits that soothe the soul and offer peace and tranquility. Professors and universities have conducted research regarding our personal and emotional relationship with water, dubbing the result "Blue Mind". Water tends to draw the soul and body toward it, relieving much of our daily stress. I don't know if it because when we take vacations it is to warmer climates or to lakes, oceans, and streams. So many people go to water on vacation or for the weekend. Happiness from those memories may make all water your happy place.
