Lakeview campground has become an annual trip for us to spend the 4th of July in the most beautiful place in Colorado. It makes it even better with great hosts and great fishing.

Really nice campground. Great location & views - super close to twin lakes. Toilets were single-stall vault toilets but very clean. Hosts very helpful.

We love this campground. We have always stayed in A3 (for the past 3 years) and it is such a nice large space with good tree coverage. There is a bit of road noise as it is at the entrance to the campground and there are further activities up the road from here, but we are somewhat oblivious to it and it's not too bothersome for us. Since it's a pretty good sized campground, there is a lot of paved roadway for walking. The fishing at Twin Lakes and on the lake up from the campground provide opportunities for some nice trout. The camp hosts have been there for 2 years (maybe more) and are so nice and helpful. They keep everything clean and tidy. Great place to stay and would highly recommend this site. We will be back.

The camp hosts were very friendly and super helpful. We had plans to summit Mt Elbert and they were able to give us some really great tips and advice which we were very thankful for! The sites were well maintained; the campground was safe and the facilities were the freshest I’ve ever experienced! We visited Twin Lakes, Leadville and Independence Pass and enjoyed all the beautiful views!

The campground is mostly suitable for smaller in length rvs or tents. Many sites are extremely unlevel. We were not able to get our trailer level because of the steep drop. The camp manager is excellent. Some sites are mostly in trees, others have some exposure to sun. We were able to get good sun for our solar. Trails go through the campground and are good for dogs.
