The communities of Lakeside and Somers are nestled on the northwest shores of beautiful Flathead Lake and Blacktail Mountain. The two distinct towns are neighbors on the bay! Located 8 miles south of Kalispell, our communities are the destination spot for locals as well as tourists. All four seasons in Lakeside and Somers offers something for everyone, from skiing the slopes of Blacktail Mountain to sailing and boating majestic Flathead Lake. While visiting in our area, please stop by our chamber office located in the West Shore Community Library in Lakeside at 100 Bierney Creek Road for local information and travel guides. We invite you to come and visit our friendly communities and experience a true Montana lifestyle. You are sure to receive a warm and friendly Montana welcome as you visit our Flathead Valley. You may also decide to make Montana home, and in that case, we know that your wish has come true!
