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.

Beautiful secluded campground at the foot of Mt. Elbert overlooking the Twin Lakes. Colorado Trail runs through the CG and leads to the Continental Divide Trail and South Mt. Elbert Trail. Dry camping, but great for hiking or just plain relaxing. Our favorite summer getaway.

Nice site. Partial view of Twin Lakes. Site just BARELY accommodated a 38 ft trailer and an adjacent truck. There are a lot of boondocking sites available in the vicinity, but we prefer to have certainty of a spot when arriving. Biked CDT both directions, around Twin Lakes, even Columbine Road during our stay. Biked much of the route of the Leadville 100 race, but stayed off the route on race day

I have always loved this campground. The only issue we have had is that on weekends, the nearby dispersed campers all come down and use the vault toilet facilities in loop A——at all times of the day and nite very much disturbing the near by campers. During the week , this is not a problem.
The campground host keeps the sites and facilities very clean!

Great site with SUPER clean bathrooms. Easy to access Twin Lakes, but tucked away from the road. Would visit again.

The area is beautiful, and our campsight was shady and comfortable. Our only issue was our neighbors across the road who were drinking and making noise late into the night. It would be nice if quiet hours were respected and enforced.

Clean bathroom in D Loop. Great site split over 3 levels (parking, eating, sleeping) with a ramp between all the levels. Would definitely go again!

This is a wonderful campground! Although there is no running water, the pit toilets were super clean and not crowded. The views of the lakes and mountains were amazing! We would stay here again.

Year three! Still no potable water!
Upside, they have upgraded the sites on loop E!
New tables, timbers, and fire pits. Upgraded pit toilet!! All very nice. The views are still some of the best in the state.

Beautiful campground. Sites nicely spaced apart. Exceptionally helpful host, clean vault toilets. Downgraded from 5 due to sites being much smaller than listed on the website. The site was listed for a max of 33 ft and we barely had room for our 25 ft camper. Others in our group experienced the same.
