Lakeview is a neighbourhood in Harbour Main-Bell Island, Newfoundland and Labrador, Canada. It is classified as a village / hamlet. Lakeview is located at 47.4203°N, 53.1397°W.

Lakeview sits nestled against the brooding shoulders of Newfoundland's Avalon Peninsula, a place where the land seems to fold in on itself, cradling a modest body of water that gives the settlement its name. It lies 8.3 km north of Holyrood, NL (from Holyrood, NL: bearing 6°T), and is situated 2.9 km south-south-east of Gallows Cove. The terrain here is a study in rugged beauty, a patchwork of scrubby barrens, wind-bent spruce, and moss-covered rock. Roads, more suggestions than thoroughfares, wind through the landscape, often disappearing around a bend to reveal another vista of pewter-grey sky meeting the deep green of the forest. The air itself carries a distinct tang, a blend of salt from the nearby Atlantic and the damp, earthy scent of peat bogs. Even on a clear day, a certain atmospheric softness prevails, lending a muted quality to the colours of the land. The story of Lakeview is inextricably linked to the sea and the enduring spirit of those who have eked out a living from this demanding coast. For generations, fishing has been the lifeblood of this place, the rhythmic pull of nets and the scent of brine a constant presence. While the traditional cod fishery has seen its challenges, the resilience of Lakeview's residents is evident in their adaptation, with a growing interest in aquaculture and small-scale tourism hinting at new directions. The echoes of a past more reliant on sheer grit and an intimate knowledge of the ocean can be felt in the weathered clapboard houses that huddle together, each a small monument to perseverance. The quiet hum of everyday life in Lakeview is punctuated by the cry of gulls and the distant rumble of waves, a constant reminder of its deep connection to the wild Atlantic.
