Brentwood Lake is an unincorporated community in far eastern Carlisle Township, Lorain County, Ohio, United States. [1] It lies at the intersection of State Routes 57 and 82 midway between Elyria and Grafton. [2]
Located at the center of the planned community was a small lake, compliments of an earthen dam from which a small stream flows to the East Branch Black River that runs just to the west of the community. The earthen dam was dismantled in 2010 [3] for safety reasons and today there is only a small stream without a lake.
Alfred M. Moen, the inventor of the Moen faucet, was a past resident of the lakeside community.[ citation needed]
