Why Live in Lakeside

Lakeside is on the north end of Pinetop-Lakeside, a small town in Arizona’s White Mountains. Set among tall pines, lakes and trail systems in rural Navajo County, Lakeside offers year-round outdoor recreation, from fishing and hiking to golf, horseback riding and skiing at nearby Sunrise Park Resort. Unlike much of Arizona, the area has a true four-season climate, with snowy winters, mild summers and colorful fall foliage. Housing options lean toward single-family homes on larger lots, alongside manufactured and some multifamily properties. While wildfire risk is part of mountain living here, many buyers manage it through insurance planning and property maintenance. Highly rated public schools, private options, nearby healthcare in Show Low and reliable high-speed internet support both full-time residents and seasonal homeowners.
