About Lakeview Campground

Natural Features and ScenerySibley State Park sits in Minnesota’s glaciated prairie–lake region, with **rolling hills, hardwood forest, wetlands, and multiple lakes**, especially Lake Andrew right below Lakeview Campground.[4][1] The area around Lakeview is more open than Oak Ridge, with younger/smaller trees due to recent tree removal and replanting, so there is **less shade and more exposed, grassy sites** than in the wooded upper campground.[1][3] Campers highlight the park’s overall beauty, with **well‑maintained trails, ponds, and lush summer greenery** plus views over the surrounding lakes and hills from Mount Tom.[1] The shoreline near Lakeview gives easy access to Lake Andrew’s **calm lake scenery, sunsets, and beach and day‑use area** a short walk or drive away.[1][3]

Good to know

Common complaints• **Crowded and cramped sites:** Repeated complaints say Lakeview sites are **very close together with little privacy**, especially compared with Oak Ridge, with many campers, vehicles, and trailers packed in.[3][6][8] • **Limited true lake views:** Some guests are disappointed that “Lakeview” now has **lake views mostly blocked by the camp host site and by tree cutting/replanting**, and that website photos do not reflect current conditions.[1] • **Noise and busyness:** On busy weekends like July 4th, Lakeview is described as very busy, with a lot of activity and a less peaceful feel than the upper campground.[3] • **Big‑rig difficulty:** Owners of large 5th‑wheel rigs report that some sites are **hard to get into** due to tight layout and angles.[6] • **Insects:** At least one review notes **bugs were so bad in hot, humid weather** that kids refused to hike some trails.[1] • **Staff interaction concerns:** One detailed 2025 TripAdvisor review accuses a specific ranger (identified as Jeremy) of **harassing behavior and perceived racism toward an Asian family**, significantly affecting that reviewer’s sense of safety and comfort.[3] Another separate review mentions a different staff member being rude over a parking‑pass misunderstanding.[3] These are not universal experiences but are serious negative reports. • Minor complaints include **spider webs and general insect presence** in summer facilities and structures.[3]
