Friends Lake Cooperative Community is a beautiful 90-acre nature preserve that is cooperatively owned and operated by its members.
Friends Lake Cooperative Community, much more than a pretty place to relax…
A 90-acre tract of unspoiled land with a half-mile shoreline on Long Lake, we’re conveniently located just 3 miles northwest of Chelsea, Michigan. Our land includes wooded hills, walking trails, wildflowers, and wetlands all contiguous with Waterloo Recreation Area.
Our lake abounds in fish that attract heron, sandhill cranes, duck and geese. Friendly night sounds include the hoot of an owl and the rustling of wild turkeys in the woods!
