Crystal Lake is a private 83-acre (34 ha) lake along the main branch of the Clinton River in Pontiac in Oakland County, Michigan.
Upstream from Crystal Lake lies 532-acre (215 ha) Sylvan Lake.
Downstream, the Clinton River goes underground in Pontiac near Orchard Lake Road and Bagley Avenue. The river reappears, after being piped under Pontiac for 3,000 feet (910 m), near Union Street and E. Huron Street (M-59), where it winds its way eastward to Auburn Hills and beyond.[2]
Ironically, Crystal Lake was originally named Mud Lake.[3]
