Lakeside is a community like no other, offering residents a delightful blend of small-town appeal and surprising opportunities for recreation and relaxation. Although tiny in size, Lakeside is famous for the iconic Lakeside Amusement Park, a historic, family-friendly destination with century-old rides, classic architecture, and a sparkling lakefront perfect for sunset strolls. The nostalgia of the amusement park is complemented by easy access to the city's peaceful green spaces, providing a serene backdrop to everyday life.
Despite its petite footprint, Lakeside enjoys a prime location near the heart of Denver and the retail and dining corridors of Jefferson County. Residents can quickly visit attractions like Sloan’s Lake Park or catch events at the Denver Coliseum just minutes away. Nearby, the Edgewater neighborhood offers additional entertainment and dining, perfect for enjoying weekend outings.
Families considering a move to Lakeside will discover access to public and charter schools within the neighboring Wheat Ridge and Denver school districts, such as Stevens Elementary School, ensuring a range of educational options. The community’s small size means lower traffic and a peaceful residential environment, all while remaining conveniently connected to regional amenities via major highways and accessible public transportation.
