Lakeview Park

Features and Amenities

Spread across 2.59 acres, Lakeview Park might not be the biggest green space in Lincoln, but what it lacks in size, it makes up for in charm. This cozy neighborhood park offers a fantastic escape for locals looking to enjoy some fresh air.

Kids will love the playground area where they can climb, slide, and let their imaginations run wild. Need a spot to catch your breath or enjoy a packed lunch? The park's open shelter provides a welcome bit of shade and a nice place to gather with friends or family.

Got a basketball itch that needs scratching? Lakeview's basketball court is fantastic for shooting some hoops or jumping into a pickup game with neighbors.

Open Field and Reservations

One of the park's highlights is its versatile open field that you can actually reserve for your own use. Regardless of whether you're planning a family reunion, a birthday picnic, or just want a guaranteed space for your weekly frisbee group, this multipurpose area has you covered.

The reservation option makes this modest park surprisingly accommodating for organized activities - something you don't always find in smaller neighborhood green spaces.

Location and Accessibility

You'll find Lakeview Park nestled near northwest 20th and west O street in Lincoln's Capitol Beach neighborhood. Its convenient location means it's just a short walk away for many residents in the area.

This accessibility makes Lakeview a natural go-to spot when you need a quick dose of outdoor time without having to trek across town. It's the kind of place where you might regularly bump into neighbors while walking the dog or getting some evening exercise.
