The primary purposes of Lakeview Wildlife Management Area (WMA) are wildlife management, wildlife habitat management, and wildlife-dependent recreation.
This WMA is part of the largest natural fresh water barrier beach system in New York State. This 3,461-acre WMA is located on State Route 3, 20 miles southwest of Watertown,
or 15 miles northwest of Pulaski. This area's diverse habitat includes: open fields, shrub lands, woodlands, wetlands, and a natural barrier beach. Lakeview is open to the public year round,
but public use restrictions apply to the sensitive barrier beach system. Some of the most beautiful areas in this WMA can only be seen by boat. There are three designated boat launch sites for
canoes or car top boats with a 10-horsepower limit.
