Best Time to Camp at Lakeview Campground

Summer brings the biggest crowds—and for good reason, with swimmers splashing in Lake Andrew and families making memories on the beach. But seasoned campers whisper about the shoulder seasons: late spring when wildflowers dot the prairie, and early fall when the crowds thin but the weather stays beautiful. Even winter has its devotees, who come for peaceful snow-covered trails and cozy interpretive programs when the park takes on a hushed, magical quality.

Summer(Jun-Aug)
4.0 / 5

Beach and swimming access make summer a peak season for visitors.

Best
Fall(Sep-Nov)
4.0 / 5

Spring(Mar-May)
3.5 / 5

Trails and lakesides become active in spring; specific seasonal notes are limited.

Winter(Dec-Feb)
2.0 / 5

Winter use not detailed; region has cold winters but activities at site aren't specified.

Planning Tips

    About Lakeview Campground

    Nestled along the shores of Lake Andrew, Lakeview Campground serves as your basecamp for exploring the scenic patchwork of rolling prairie hills and forests that define Sibley State Park. Whether you're here for summer beach days, colorful fall hikes, or quiet winter weekends, you'll find year-round programs and activities that bring the whole family together in one of Minnesota's most beautiful landscapes.
    Lakeview is a developed park campground with a large number of electric sites and easy access to lake and day‑use facilities. Site spacing has been called tight in some loops, and perimeter sites tend to offer more privacy.
