Laketown - East or West Shore of Esgaroth?

For some reason - maybe proximity on a map I saw, or just early assumptions - I always thought Laketown was on the east side of the Lake Esgaroth. That is - the opposite side from which the Forest River runs into the lake.

But on my current re-read of The Hobbit, it seems pretty clear that it's on the west side - just barely down the lake from where the Forest River flows in.

Did anyone else think it was across the lake? And how did I get that impression in the first place?
