Why Live in Barnes Lake

Deep in rural Lapeer County, the community of Barnes Lake offers a natural getaway from the city action of nearby Lapeer, 15 minutes away, and Flint, about 35. Life in Barnes Lake revolves around the private manmade lake, which is open for fishing, powerboating and beachgoing. Though Barnes Lake was first settled in 1839, its housing stock is primarily from the mid-20th century, and its tree-shaded homes offer immediate access to the lake. The namesake lake was created in 1926 by damming Crystal Creek’s many ponds. Since then, the area has become an oasis for outdoor activity in what the community calls an all-sports environment. The lake is open for watercraft from 10 a.m. to 8 p.m., though visitors must be members of the Barnes Lake Club to access the boat launch as well as the beach and swimming areas. Church groups occasionally take part in retreats at the Crystal Creek Christian Campgrounds, and the Kings Landing Kampground makes nearby Millers Lake available for beachgoing, lakeside cookouts and boating. Most houses in the area were built from the 1950s to ’80s. Ranch-style and split-level properties can sell for $260,000 to $540,000, while manufactured homes range from
