About Lakeview

Lakeview sits in south-central Oregon at the foot of the Warner Mountains, right in the Goose Lake Valley. Home to around 3,300 residents, it proudly holds the title of "Oregon's Tallest Town" thanks to its 4,700-foot elevation. It is a traditional high-desert hub built around ranching, forestry, and public land management, offering a quiet, small-town pace with big open skies.
