If it is legal (and I don't know that it is) you'd have to run what amounts to a water treatment plant to insure you kill the pathogens you'll find in surface water, mess up on the operation and it would be pretty easy to die. Then there is the issue of navigable surface waters, if someone, like say the Army Corps of Engineers, decides it is a navigable body of water than you have to get their permission to do anything with their water (yep-done seized YOUR riparian rights with out due process). Next question- are you borrowing money to build this house? Better ask the bank if they'll consider financing a house with pond water. Pond water is different, they don't like different.If they give you a favorable decision get it in writing with clauses that'll protect you when they change their mind. Last you're in Michigan well water for the most part in Michigan is easy, plentiful and cheap. I really think with a well you'll have cheaper cleaner water and should you ever have to sell the place or finance it you might actually be able to do it and it limits your need to deal with the Army Corps of engineers, while they aren't real MLBHs (Major League Bxxx Holes)like say Homeland security, the IRS or BATF they are still a bureaucracy, when you deal with bureaucracies remember snake wisdom "you mess with snakes long enough you'll get bit".
