Welcome to Triangle Lake

Triangle Lake is in Marion Township, Livingston County, south of Howell, about 22.5 miles from downtown Fenton. When I checked in October 2026, my site had one Triangle Lake home for sale, 2955 Rubbins Road in Triangle Lake Estates, which its listing describes as on all-sports Triangle Lake.

Lake Overview

• Location: Marion Township, Livingston County, with Howell mailing addresses (Michigan DNR Livingston County watercraft controls).
• Size: about 53 acres in DNR data (Michigan's Named Inland Lakes, DNR data via MLSA); EGLE MiEnviro inland lakes mapping also shows about 53 acres.
• Boating: the current listing calls it all-sports. The Michigan DNR rule WC-47-97-001 bans high-speed boating and towing skiers or tubers from 6:30 p.m. to 10:00 a.m. (Michigan DNR Livingston County watercraft controls).
• Public access: I didn't find a published public boat launch for Triangle Lake. Ask me, and we'll confirm what applies to a specific home.
• Shoreline: Microsoft building-footprint map data shows about 94 buildings near the shore.

Living on Triangle Lake

Triangle Lake gives you daytime all-sports boating and quiet evenings, thanks to the DNR's high-speed hours. It's a short drive to downtown Howell and I-96, and the current listing shows a private well and septic.

Marion Township & Schools

Triangle Lake homes are in Marion Township with Howell addresses, and the current listing is in Howell Public Schools. Marion Township waterfront homes on my site today are all in Howell schools, and I confirm the district 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 Marion 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.
• Triangle Lake has a township special assessment. Marion Township created the Triangle Lake Aquatic Weed Management and Goose Control Special Assessment District (September 2024 township minutes) and approved its roll (October 2024 township minutes). I'll confirm the current amount on the tax bill.
• Taxable value generally "uncaps" after a sale (MCL 211.27a), so don't budget off the seller's tax bill.
• Plan around the 6:30 p.m. to 10:00 a.m. high-speed limit if you love evening skiing or tubing.

Tips for Sellers

• Lead with all-sports boating and the Howell location.
• Say "Triangle Lake, Marion Township, Howell" so local buyers find you.
• Have well, septic, dock and special assessment details ready.
