Lakeside, population 2,170, is a popular summertime weekend getaway, offering a multiplicity of family fun outdoor activities. The town lies on the edge of Ten Mile Lake, which is actually a grouping of interconnected waterways. Together they make up the largest chain of freshwater lakes on the south coast and are a naturally popular boating and fishing spot. To the west are miles of sand dunes stretching south to Hauser that make for great ATV fun. Real estate prices are modest for waterfront homes, the landscape and scenery are outstanding, and the area offers an exciting alternative to other towns on the wonderful southern Oregon coast.
