Why Live in Lakeview
Lakeview in Decatur offers a blend of waterfront living and convenience, situated close to Lake Decatur and significant employers like ADM and Caterpillar. The neighborhood is characterized by its seclusion, with less through traffic due to its location south of train tracks and north of a main thoroughfare.

Properties along the lake feature private docks but are more prone to flooding. Local attractions include Galloway Park, 2 miles southwest, and Splash Cove, a popular water park.

Dining options include New Moon Café and 217 Flavor LLC, while grocery needs are met by Macon Express Market and Save A Lot, 2 miles west.
