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.

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!!
