Welcome to Lakepointe!
Lakepointe is a subdivision located in Shawnee, Kansas in western Johnson County. Our community includes 367 homes and is surrounded by several ponds, fountains, a waterfall, and a 14.8 acre lake area. A private park with playground equipment and several acres of lawn provides a great play area for kids and serves as a gathering space for social events.
A paved scenic walkway connects Lakepointe to Mill Creek Streamway Park, and just a few blocks away you'll find Mid-America Sports Complex Park, Okun Fieldhouse, Shawnee Mission Beach Volleyball, and the KC Ice Center. Shawnee Mission Park is a ten minute drive and is where you'll find an extensive network of trails for walking or biking, a public beach, boat rentals, fishing, and cultural events.
Lakepointe is adjacent to three public schools in the Desoto School District (USD 232): Clear Creek Elementary, Monticello Trails Middle School, and Mill Valley High School.

- When are the sidewalks shoveled? The city requires that sidewalks be cleared within 48 hours of a snowfall. Lakepointe residents are responsible to shovel their own sidewalks and the homeowners association will clear ONLY the common area sidewalks. Please be a courteous neighbor and clear your sidewalks promptly.

- What are my annual dues used for? About 45% of your annual dues payment is for weekly trash service. Our negotiated group rate is considerably less than the average paid by single subscriber households in Shawnee. Another 45% of your dues payment goes toward landscaping, maintenance of the fountains & waterfall, and snow removal for the common area sidewalks. Each year, 6% of dues are set aside in a Reserve account to cover large projects like pond dredging or rebuilding an entrance monument. The remaining 4% pays for neighborhood events, insurance, taxes, and administrative expenses.
