Waterfront homes on Lake Ponemah Fenton MI

Here are the basic features of lake homes on Lake Ponemah in Genessee County. The waterfront homes were built between the years of 1920 - 2012.  The lot sizes are both narrow and wider.  A few of the homes sit on lots from one to two acres.  The homes range from 800 to 7600 square feet in size.  They have one to five bedrooms, and one to six and a half bathrooms.  Some of the lake homes have no garages and others have up to a 5 car garage.  But most homes have 2 -3 car garages.  The home styles are cape cods, colonials, contemporary, ranches and split levels. Some homes have basements, others are on crawl spaces and slabs.

There are hundreds of homes on the lake. I do not believe there are any condos on the lake.  The Ponemah lakeshore hosts every style of house from older cozy cottages to large mansions.  There is about 100 homes on the canals of Lake Ponemah.  Emerald Pointe Drive has several large luxury lakefront homes.  The homes are on well and sewers.

Lake Ponemah Genessee County MI Data

Lake Ponemah is a public all sports lake that is 379 acres in size.  The deepest spot on the lake is about 77 feet deep.  This information comes from a state map.  According to the state map the contour of the lake is about 4.67 miles long.  The mean depth of the lake is 23 feet.  There is no public beach.  There is a State of Michigan public DNR launch off of North Road off Torrey Road.  It has 35 parking spots for vehicles and boat trailers.               

The streets around the lake are paved.  I do not know if there is a state approved water ski course.  The children on the lake go to Fenton Schools or Lake Fenton depending on where you live.  There is a marina on lake that is called Lake Ponemah Marina.  It is on the south side of the lake of Silver Lake Road. Lake Ponemah is both spring fed and fed by the Shiawassee River.  There are several canals on the lake that have about a hundred homes on them.                                      

Lake Ponemah connects to two other lakes, Squaw Lake and Tupper Lake, and the Shiawassee River runs through the lake. There are two decent size islands on the lake that are uninhabited.  Ponemah connects to Tupper and Squaw Lake and the lake association is called PST after the first initials of each lake. PST is very involved and they do many events and parties all year long. It is a natural kettle lake that is spring fed and fed by the Shiawassee River. 

Lake Ponemah has a sand bar near the DNR lake access that lake lovers frequently gather on to play water volley ball and to hang out with other lake residents.  

One of the best parts of the lake is the Ponemah Lakeside Lodge.  Once you live on a lake that has a restaurant bar you will never want to live on any other lake.  The restaurant is on the south shore close to Lake Ponemah Marian.  Ponemah Lakeside Lodge offers great views of Lake Ponemah. Inside and outside seating is available. Whether you arrive by bike, boat or by foot, Ponemah Lakeside Lodge is the place to be all year round.  There is beautiful outdoor dining on the patio, and on Fridays, Saturdays and Sundays there is live music outside. You can pull up dockside and grab a cone of Ashby’s Ice Cream, which they serve all day, every day. If you pop into the lodge for a meal, there’s Detroit style pizza, boom boom shrimp, sub sandwiches that are perfect to grab and go for your boat, and fun trash can nachos. Grab a fruity cocktail from the Tiki Bar, like a Ponemah Pina Colada or a bright and fresh Ruby Mule.

The Fenton Bar Hopper provided by the Warda Foundation provides bus transportation between The Ponemah Lakeside Lodge the Barn, the Fenton Pub, the Corner Bar, and the Then Fenton Fireplace on Fridays and Saturdays from 8:00 pm until 1:00 am. We promote safe driving and still encourage use of a DD or ride share to get you to/from home. 

The State public DNR boat access ramp located off North Road between Ponemah Drive and Rolston Road, along with a parking lot with 35 slots and restrooms.

I have been the fishing is good on the lake.  Fishermen can expect to catch a variety of fish including Bluegill, Black Crappie, some Large and Small mouth Bass, Northern Pike, Sunfish, Walleye and Yellow Perch.

Here is some information about boating from Lake Ponemah Marina.  It is a great place to buy a boat, get parts, or have your boat serviced.  Stop in to see them whether you need a boat or just need your boat serviced.  

• Anyone can have fun on a boat: No matter who you are or how old you are, you can have plenty of fun out on a boat. This is true for young children all the way up through elderly adults. There are boating activities for people of all ages, from simple boat rides and sightseeing excursions to fishing and more high-energy activities, such as tubing and water skiing. You can even bring out the family dog!
• You can build relationships while on the boat: Boating is a great way to spend time together with good friends and family members. It’s a fantastic way to connect with your loved ones. You can easily hold conversations while out on the water. Heck, you can even bring a cooler of beverages with you, drop your anchor and just enjoy sitting out on the water! It doesn’t matter how fancy your boat is or what sort of amenities it has—boating is a great way to bring people together.
• Everyone’s in a good mood on a boat: Have you ever noticed that when you see other people out on the water while you’re boating, everyone always seems to be having the time of their lives? It’s almost an unwritten rule of boating that you have to give other boaters and boat passengers a smile and a friendly wave when you pass on the water. The boating community is fantastic, and it’s because everyone who’s out on the water is living their best life.
• Boating is good for your mental health: Being outside in the fresh air and sunshine is just good for you, both physically and mentally. It’s especially refreshing if you’re used to being in city environments with a lot of air or noise pollution.
