We’re to start. Well pulling into the camp grounds was amazing. We got there a little later than we would have liked, but we had an out standing welcoming. I went into the office and was greeted by a very professional front desk employee. He was very polite. I saw were we were located and heard not loud music but music that I wasn’t sure would wake our newborn through the night or our newborn cries and wake other guest. I asked Jason if there may be another secluded area so no one would get up set. He took his time to walk us over to a different section behind some RVS and explained the different spots. He suggested the little bit more open area as we had a toddler as well and that our area extended to the fence line. I was supper happy with this spot and after making the choice we went back to the office were Jason switched our spots over. We also loved the new swim dock. It was absolutely incredible and beautiful. I know there are mixed reviews on here but from our families experience with this camp, we will absolutely be returning in the spring with our family and hoping we get the same customer service again. 10/10

We had such a lovely time at Camp Lakeview. The owner was very kind and attentive to ensuring his guests had a great time! Special thanks to the owner for letting us take the kayaks out just about as they were going to close rentals. The camping spots were beautiful, right near the lake in a shaded green area with fire pits, clean bathrooms, showers, a laundry room, and a kitchen sink. Perfect for a lovely weekend of kayaking and camping.

We recently stayed at Camp Lakeview, and overall it was a mixed experience. On the positive side, all the staff members were very friendly and welcoming. The access to the lake is absolutely beautiful and was one of the highlights of our stay. The grounds are well maintained and nicely set up, and we even enjoyed watching a little bunny hopping around the property, which was very sweet. Another big plus is that there’s a small shop on site where you can buy essentials — even ice — which is very convenient when you’re camping. However, there were also some downsides that made our stay less comfortable. The three biggest issues were: 1. Campsites too close together – The sites are located very close to each other, with almost no privacy. I could literally hear strangers snoring in the tent right next to ours. Pets from neighboring sites often wandered into our area. While they were adorable (I even posted a photo of a very cute little dog that came over), a couple of times they urinated on our rug. It would be great if there were clearer rules or boundaries regarding pets, and if the sites were spaced further apart to give guests a bit of personal space. 2. Restrooms and showers – While I really appreciate that you provide toilet seat covers (big respect for that!), the stalls are extremely narrow. I’m a slim person myself, and even for me they felt very tight — I can’t imagine how uncomfortable this would be for larger guests. In addition, the facilities were not clean. During our three-day stay, I never once saw the bathrooms properly cleaned. The floors were dirty, paper towels ran out by Friday evening and weren’t replaced until I asked on Saturday night, and the sanitary bins in the women’s restroom were overflowing the entire time. There were staff members who seemed to “check in” and create the impression of cleaning, but the actual state of the bathrooms and showers remained quite poor. 3. Shower water – Taking a shower was also a challenge. The water temperature was not adjustable, and in the evenings it was always very cold. This made it hard to properly shower and was a big drawback for us after long, hot days outdoors. In conclusion, while we enjoyed the lake access, the friendly staff, the convenience of the shop, and the overall atmosphere, the lack of privacy between campsites, the state of the restrooms, and the cold showers are major issues. These factors significantly lowered our experience and rating.

We have been to this place several times over the past 20 years. The staff if friendly and the campground and buildings are reasonably clean. Whether we bring an RV or use tents, the correct hookups are available. It has always been a pleasant place to stay.

I had a wonderful time at Camp Lakeview last month with my son and father. The owner came up to us while we were setting up our camp and was a pleasure to talk to. The entire staff we had interactions with were friendly and showed wonderful customer service. The owner was very tentative to ensure my 4 year old son had the best experience fishing (as we were on a fishing trip) and even brought him a trophy on the second or third day as he outfitted his grandpa! It made my son's trip and he talked about his trophy almost every day! The campsites are close together but, I understand that is how revenue is made to keep the place going. It wasn't crowded during our stay and our neighbors were wonderful locals who come every year with their children and my son make quick friends. The swimming area was great, the bathrooms and entirety of the grounds were clean and well kept, and it was very much a family/friendly environment. We will definitely return.

This is a very down to earth camp ground. Very friendly and we have been going there five years now. Love the outdoors. Fishing, boating, Ski-Dooinh, hiking, volleyball, playground, tent camping and awesome cabins good for groups of all ages. My number one go to. Enjoy your stay like I did.
