Sylvan Lake is a small city located in central Oakland County, surrounded by Pontiac and Keego Harbor, along the shore of Sylvan Lake.

The lake bordering the city gives residents convenient water access just outside Pontiac, with boating and fishing among the more popular local activities. Pontiac School District serves the city and has a long standing local presence. Housing stock is modest and compact, reflecting the city's small footprint relative to some of the larger, more upscale lake communities nearby.
