About

Lakeview Park is Middleton’s largest community park. Covering 80 acres, users will love the open play field, multiple playgrounds, baseball diamond, *tennis courts, soccer fields, LifeTrail Exercise Stations and hiking trails. A wide paved path surrounds a small but scenic pond with accessible piers that can be used for fishing. There is also a picturesque gazebo nearby and a large shelter with restroom and kitchen facilities, available by reservation (see venue description below).

The park features Middleton’s only splash pad, which is open Memorial Day weekend through Labor Day (weather permitting).

*As of June 2, 2026, the tennis courts are under construction to upgrade to two ADA-compliant tennis courts and six pickleball courts with two viewing areas and bike parking. On-street parking on Mendota Avenue and parking lot parking will be limited near the construction site. The project is not anticipated to impact park activities. The project is expected to be complete in spring 2026. Check construction status here.
