PINETOP – LAKESIDE
Pinetop-Lakeside is an incorporated community located in the scenic White Mountains of Arizona. Founded in the early 1880’s by Mormon pioneers, Lakeside derived its name from the area’s lakes, and Pinetop derived its name from the nickname of a saloon keeper who served the Fort Apache soldiers. The two communities incorporated as one town in 1984.
