Lake Lansing
Lake Lansing is a lake in Haslett, Michigan just a few miles northeast of the state's capital city of Lansing.
Overview
Lake Lansing was originally known as Pine Lake, and was a highly popular recreation site in the early 1900s. The name was changed to Lake Lansing in 1927. The lake soon began to decline in recreational popularity, and was neglected for many decades until it was dreged in 1978, restoring the health of the lake. About 280 homes now surround the lake. Two sailing clubs also have property on the lake. In addition there are two public parks. [Lake Lansing History]
A special assessment district created by the township enables education, ongoing testing, evaluation and management of the lake to control weeds, encourage phosphorus free fertilization, round up geese and other activities to keep the lake healthy and safe for recreational use.
The Lansing Property Owners Association maintains a communication system for property owners, works for safety on the lake, sponsors numerous social activities and advocates on behalf of its members on riparian rights and other issues.
Sailing clubs
The Lansing Sailing Club sponsors an active program of racing and day sailing for sailboat owners.
The Michigan State University Sailing Center offers a "Learn to Sail" class, as well as other classes. The Center also offers a variety of memberships that enable individuals to sail MSU Sailing Center boats.
Public parks
Two public parks, one with trailer launching access, are operated by the Ingham County Park Department. Lake Lansing Park South, managed by the Ingham County Park Department includes a Band Shell, boat rental, fishing dock, swimming beach, bath house beach volleyball courts, summer snack bar, horseshoe pits, picnic grounds and shelters.
