Welcome to Beach Lake

Beach Lake is a private lake in Brighton Township, Livingston County, about 16.4 miles from downtown Fenton. Many homes have Milford mailing addresses, and it's not Grand Beach Lake in Genoa Township. When I checked in October 2026, my site had a current Beach Lake listing, and the button above always shows what's available today.

Lake Overview

• Location: Brighton Township, section 23 (per the current listing), just east of Moraine Lake (MichiganLakes.com directory).
• Size: about 55 acres in DNR data (Michigan's Named Inland Lakes, DNR data via MLSA); EGLE MiEnviro inland lakes mapping shows about 55 acres.
• All-sports: the current listing describes private all-sports Beach Lake with a slalom course.
• Neighborhood: The Oaks at Beach Lake, with an annual HOA fee and a 2.5-mile community walking trail (per the listing).
• Boating: I didn't find a Michigan DNR local watercraft control naming Beach Lake (Michigan DNR Livingston County watercraft controls).
• Public access: I didn't find a published public boat launch for Beach Lake. Ask me, and we'll confirm what applies to a specific home.
• Shoreline: Microsoft building-footprint map data shows about 44 buildings near the shore.

Living on Beach Lake

Beach Lake is the bigger, livelier lake in this corner of Brighton Township. The current listing mentions watersports, fishing, ice fishing and skating, plus a private sandy beach and dock.

Brighton Township & Schools

Beach Lake is in Brighton Township. The current Beach Lake listing is in Brighton Area Schools with a well and a shared septic system. Brighton Township waterfront listings I checked in October 2026 were split among Brighton Area Schools, Howell Public Schools and Hartland Consolidated Schools, so I confirm the district and utilities for every address.

Tips for Buyers

• Understand riparian rights. Michigan waterfront ("riparian") owners generally have rights to dock and reach the water (EGLE inland lakes guide). "Lake privileges" or a shared lot is different, so read the deed and any easement.
• Know the local rules. I'll check Brighton Township zoning, association rules, and any dock or shoreline rules for the specific parcel.
• Seawalls and permanent docks generally need an EGLE permit, while seasonal docks usually don't (EGLE dock handout). Ask for permit records.
• Confirm sewer or septic and well, and schedule inspections for any private system.
• Check the address on FEMA's Flood Map Service Center and get a flood insurance quote early.
• The Oaks at Beach Lake has a homeowners association with an annual fee (per the current listing). I'll get the dues, rules and any special assessments in writing.
• Taxable value generally "uncaps" after a sale (MCL 211.27a), so don't budget off the seller's tax bill.
• Ask how a shared septic system is maintained and paid for, and check deed or association rules on docks and boats.

Tips for Sellers

• Lead with all-sports water and the private-lake setting.
• Use "Beach Lake, Brighton Township" in your listing, since Milford addresses can confuse buyers.
• Have association, well and septic records ready.
