Lakeview Trail is a wide, sunny trail with the inlet of the lake immediately on your left as you walk from the west-end trailhead and young forest with dense understory on your right. A picnic area and campground can be seen across the inlet to the left. The park’s campground supports a colony of the unique bald cypress tree as well as a plantation of sweet gum dating back to the early 1950s. The east-end of the trail stops at a footbridge that beings you to the start of the Lakeview Trail.
