About Perch Lake
Perch Lake is a 55-acre private spring-feed all-sports lake in Montcalm Township near Gowen. Weed control of the lake is maintained through a special assessment paid by property owners around the lake and property owners of the Holiday Beach Plot that have access to Perch Lake via our boat launch and 2 parks that are on the lake. In addition to the assessment that covers weed cont
rol, the beauty and tranquility of our small community is made possible through dedicated efforts of volunteers who pitch in to make our lake and the surrounding area enjoyable to all who live and visit here. Please become a part of that volunteer force by assisting in simple thoughtful acts such as picking up trash along our roadways, making road signs visible by trimming the vegetation, or grass cutting and leaf cleanup in our parks.
There are 2 homeowners associations around Perch Lake. Holiday Beach Association on the north and west side of the lake is the largest comprised of approximately 100 property owners, 70 homes, and over 3 miles of private roads which are maintained through a special property assessment. The board of trustees of this association are non-paid volunteers who truly care about maintaining and improving the roads, parks, and boat launch while making sure it is accessible and enjoyable by all members and guests. Being non-paid, our board members deserve everyone’s respectful appreciation and thanks! The smaller association of 20 property owners is Johansen Beach/Morgan Dr. on the east side of the lake. This website is supported through the volunteer efforts of the Holiday Beach Association.
