| “ | In 2630 BC, the ancient Egyptians hauled up massive amounts of stone from this dig site for their pyramid-shaped tombs. Now, millennia later, honor their effort by filling those tombs to brimming with bullet-riddled, shrapnel-filled corpses in this fast-paced King of the Hill map.

Lakeside is a community-created King of the Hill map added in the Community Map Pack Update. It is set in an ancient Egyptian temple along the shore of a large lake.

Locations
Note: If you are having trouble with finding the locations listed here, see the Helpful overview section to see their exact position marked on the map.
- Spawn: The area where each team spawns has one Resupply Locker, located inside a fairly large room. At the front of the room are two doors on both sides that lead to the Team Courtyard.
- Team Courtyard: Each team has an area immediately outside of their Spawn that is connected to the rest of the map via three pathways.
- Scaffolding: The left/right pathway out of the Team Courtyard, it leads to the Health Room and the ramp that accesses the Fort.
- Chiseled-Sandstone: The middle pathway leading out of the Team Courtyard.
- Winding Tunnel: The right/left-most chokepoint is a tunnel dug through a natural rock formation. The Winding Tunnel has two small health packs in it, right next to each other.
- Fort: A large, elevated stone structure that overlooks parts of the control point from its balconies. A wooden bridge connects it to the Winding Tunnel while a wooden ramp connects it to the Scaffolding. Found atop it are two small ammo packs and a small health pack. Directly next to the Fort is the Health Room.
- Health Room: A small, concealed room located on the far left/right of the map, containing a medium health pack. It is partially shielded from the control point by a wall.
- Ammunition Room: This a small tower to the right/left of the map, on the opposite side from the Health Room, containing a medium ammo pack. To its left/right, there is a large, flat, elevated area made out of sandstone that connects seamlessly with the Fort and the Winding Tunnel, and leads into the Water Temple.
- Water Temple: A large temple with a small pool of water in the middle of the room. The water is below floor level, and there is a small podium in the middle with a large health pack on top of it. The Water Temple's left/right side exit leads to the control point.
- Point: The sole control point is located in the middle of an elevated sandstone structure surrounded by two large obelisks. The two obelisk, coupled by a metal sheet, shield the control point from the Forts. In addition to the Water Temple exit, the control point's elevated position can be reached via four stairs (two on each side). The area between the control point and the Forts is flat and without any cover. To the left/right of the control point is a giant sandstone archway facing the direction of the Water Temple, but located on the other side of the point from it. It hides a large ammo pack beneath it.

Bugs
- Some buildings may appear translucent or invisible, this is because they use a 3D Skybox to render the prop.
- Players can get stuck on the wooden frame exiting from the Winding Tunnel. This is because part of the tunnel displacement extends into the wooden frame. The only way to escape is by dying.
- Rarely, players can "float" on the hieroglyphic walls if they rub against a specific section of them. They can also walk on a section of the Obelisk walls, despite no visual surface to walk on.
- In the spawn room, players are able to build Sentry Guns and Dispensers through the boarded up window near the Resupply Locker.
Trivia
- This map has the same hieroglyphics on the walls as the Attack/Defend map Egypt. These include a Heavy with his Minigun, a Sapper, two small Sticky Bombs, a large Sticky Bomb, a level one Sentry Gun, the Backstab symbol, a simplified Demoman face, a crocodile, an Übersaw, a Soldier (sitting down), the Team Fortress logo, a hamburger and what could be construed as a Pyro (mainly because of an axe-like protrusion at the front of a silhouetted figure).
- During development, Lakeside was originally intended to be named “Sobek” due to people disliking it's original name. [1]
