Walkability to shops, restaurants, lake, and trails creates resort-like feel
Lakeside became “a place people love,” by design, with a little luck and magic mixed in. Employing traditional neighborhood principles, planner Dan Quinto set out to encourage walking and promote social interaction — the foundation for a vibrant community. Parking lots sit hidden out of sight while front porches, storefronts, and parks create interest for pedestrians along Lakeside’s treed streetscapes and trails. They invite residents and visitors to…

You’ll love Lakeside if …
Lakeside residents like to stay active. They walk to shop, to dine out, to view a sunset over the lake, to visit the dog park with their canine, and to breathe in some of the fresh air blowing in off Lake Grapevine. They refrain from cranking up the jalopy if at all possible.
You’ll find people of all ages living in Lakeside, and they are a social bunch who welcome newcomers. Favorite meeting spots: any one of the 37 shops and restaurants, the Lakeside Boardwalk, Lakeside Parkway, the Lakeside Dog Park, Lakewood Park, and, of course, Sunset Point.
To the west, Lakeside borders approximately one mile of environmentally protected parkland overlooking Lake Grapevine. Explore it up close starting from Lakeside’s trailhead to Northshore Trail, a 22-mile long hiking/mountain biking paradise, or enjoy sunsets over Lake Grapevine from Sunset Point.
In Lakeside, community occupies an important role. People participate, they help and support one another. They’re invested. When COVID threatened Lakeside merchants, Lakeside residents stepped up to support them. While it was tough going, not a single merchant went out of business during COVID.
