Big Lake — Davisburg, Michigan

Waterfront living at its finest on Oakland County's Big Lake.

Big Lake is a 215-acre all-sports lake tucked into the quiet community of Davisburg in Springfield Township, Oakland County, Michigan. Unlike the crowded metro-area lakes, Big Lake offers a rare combination of spacious waterfront lots, substantial shoreline, and the kind of relaxed lake lifestyle that families dream about.

Waterfront properties on Big Lake typically feature 150 feet or more of frontage — giving homeowners the rare luxury of genuine space along the shoreline. With a maximum depth of approximately 14 feet, the lake is ideal for water skiing, wakeboarding, tubing, and swimming, while its diverse fish population makes it a year-round angler's paradise.

The surrounding community is small, welcoming, and genuinely tight-knit. Big Lake residents take pride in their neighborhood — summer weekends bring dock gatherings, fishing tournaments, and the kind of easy camaraderie that makes lake living special.

Why buyers choose Big Lake.

Big Lake isn't just a place to live — it's a lifestyle. Here's what makes waterfront living on Big Lake in Davisburg so special.

Beyond the Shoreline

What's nearby — everything you need, minutes from your dock.

Proximity to Clarkston

Downtown Clarkston — with its restaurants, boutiques, and entertainment — is just minutes away, giving lake residents easy access to dining and nightlife.

Pine Knob & Outdoor Recreation

Pine Knob Music Theatre and Ski Resort are nearby, offering year-round entertainment from summer concerts to winter skiing.

Easy Commuter Access

US-24 (Dixie Highway) and I-75 provide direct routes to Auburn Hills, Pontiac, Troy, and downtown Detroit for everyday commuters.

Oakland County Lifestyle

Davisburg sits in Oakland County — consistently ranked among Michigan's most desirable counties for quality of life, schools, and property values.

The Rarity of Substantial Frontage

150-plus feet of frontage is exceptionally rare.

Most lakefront properties in Oakland County offer 75 to 100 feet of shoreline. Finding 150 feet or more of frontage on an all-sports lake like Big Lake is a genuinely uncommon opportunity — and one that rarely comes to market.

Generous frontage means more room for a private dock, a waterfront seating area, and natural shoreline buffer. It also means more privacy from neighbors and a stronger long-term investment — properties with substantial frontage consistently command premium values in the Oakland County lakefront market.

Whether you're looking for a year-round waterfront home or a weekend retreat, the combination of Big Lake's all-sports lifestyle and rare frontage like this makes the Davisburg lakefront market worth watching closely.
