Beautiful surroundings mean Lakeville delights residents all year round

Peaceful Nature Lake Hiking Landscape

Lakeville, Massachusetts envelops two pristine reservoirs and acres of forests in its borders, providing a picturesque setting for residents on and off the water. Lakeville’s settlement and incorporation are steeped in history, but today it’s a quiet community with just a few stores and restaurants scattered around its landscape.

In summer, Assawompset Pond and Long Pond host boaters, fisherman, and swimmers even after the sun goes down. The town is surrounded by conservation area and state parks that provide miles of incredible hiking trails, and there’s a collection of golf courses in the north section of the region. Lakeville may seem secluded, but it’s actually quite close to more lively communities like Middleborough and Taunton, each of which provide a number of amenities on their own.
