Only 17 miles south of Buffalo, the small community of Lake View, New York is ideally situated for both convenience and recreation. Bounded by Lake Erie on one side, and surrounded by Hamburg, Mt Vernon and Buffalo, you and your family will never want for anything. Lake View is a great community and home for any family seeking a quiet but active life without being too far from city convenience.
All the big name stores are close by, from Walmart in Hamburg, to Big Lots, Dollar General, Wegmans and Target near Buffalo. The area provides a great selection of malls. The Southgate Plaza has a stunning mix of smaller name brands, but is more like a strip mall, with easy access to each store directly from the parking lot. When you need a store like Macy's or Sears you can visit McKinley Mall or Walden Galleria Mall, with both malls including many other well-known brands as tenants.
Always wanted to go fishing? With Lake Erie on your doorstep you have no excuse not to, whether you do it yourself from any of the designated beaches, or use a charter such as Gr8 Lakes or Hooked Up. This part of New York State is rich with beautiful parks that are all designed to make full use of the natural environment. Chestnut Ridge Park is a prime example, and it not only offers many opportunities for hiking and biking through wooded areas, it also includes various sports fields and even a disc golf course. When you just need access to a playground or simple walking path, JFK Playground is closer and big enough for an enjoyable afternoon out.
The diversity of restaurants along the Lake Erie shoreline is truly amazing, from simple British pub fair at English Pork Pie Company, to an unusual mix of Italian and Caribbean at Curly's. When you want something a little more upscale, Daniel's in Hamburg is both stylishly simple, and richly decadent, combining great wine with the best French cuisine.
The town of Hamburg serves the Lake View community when it comes to primary and secondary education, either at one of the public schools or the private schools that are also found within the town limits. Hilbert College is based in Hamburg, while many top universities and colleges are all within an hours drive.
