Lakeview Campground is highly praised for its beautiful location, clean facilities, and friendly hosts. Campers appreciate the well-maintained restrooms and spacious, shaded sites, along with proximity to hiking trails and stunning views of Twin Lakes and Mt. Elbert. While some have noted issues with water availability and occasional noise, the overall experience is positive, with many expressing a desire to return.

We stayed at site E001 on 8/12 early on our cross country roadtrip. The site’s views are somewhat more obstructed than other sites’ but beautiful nonetheless. We spent the evening and morning walking down the CDT trail (which is right alongside the site) to enjoy the full open view. Saw fox. At no point was noise an issue, and the site felt private and safe for us as two young women. We stayed at nearly 30 campgrounds all over the country during this trip and Lakeview was one of my favorites. The views, the quiet, and the well-spaced and uniquely built sites were all wonderful.

This specific site was great. It was quite wooded and relatively private, not a far walk to the bathrooms and trash.

Really nice campground with plenty of nice sites. Campground host nice fellow. Loved that the Colorado Trail passes right through. Other nice trails in the area...you don't have to drive to get to a trailhead!

Out tent site in loop F02 was not great because the area intended for a tent was on a hill and not flat at all. We ended up pitching our tent in the parking space in front of our car. Also, the nearby vault toilet was old and full of flies, so you wanted to be in and out of there fast. In general our spot was quiet but you could hear cars on the road below heading through town. Gorgeous views nearby looking south during the sunset!!
