Lakeside Village Life

 

We are adjusting to our new life here in Lakeside Village which is on the northeast side of Lake Grapevine about 15 miles northwest of Dallas proper. This is an entirely new village done the way we have been looking for for many years; shops on the lower level with apartments above; walk to it all.

The village contains all types of residential living from homes to condos to our over 55 apartments. Above is the entrance to the village at the corner of Lakeside Parkway and Long Prairie Road looking northward. Below is the same intersection looking southward with the Brazilian Steakhouse in the view.

Below is the Moviehouse Eatery dine-in theater in the background with Mena's Grill a higher end excellent Mexican themed restaurant on the left side; excellent food and $1 Mimosas for Sunday brunch!!

And another shot of Lakeside parkway now looking back toward the east.

Back home in the Overture place we live here are Jo-Anne and new friend Connie as they are taking art classes in our building's art room.

And the result of Jo-Anne's first finished product ... Wow ... really awesome!!

 

And finally as we walk out of our building, go south a block, enter the Lakeside Boardwalk, and walk the half mile along the lakeside you end up at this wonderful lake overlook and seating area with a commercial pic from the Lakeside Association.

Directly across the lake in the above view is Grapevine and the Vineyards RV park we used to stay in for the winters but now this place and the really nice RV park here in Flower Mound have won us over.
