We have camped here several times, but unfortunately, this time we had a different experience. We checked in on a Friday and checked out on a Monday. Upon arrival, I used the Men’s bathroom and it was disgustingly dirty. The bathroom was not cleaned the entire time we were there. The woman’s bathroom was about out of toilet paper and who knows when they would be around to clean and restock. In addition, one camping group was playing music loud enough for the entire campground to hear, and the music went on after quite hours started. People also ran their generators after quite hours, and all through the night. Hopefully this was a one time occurrence as this was not the norm.

Great campground and the campground caretaker made sure we had what we needed as well as letting us know of the wildlife to be aware of. We were able to see a deer run by our campsite. Only down side is there were multiple ant hills on the tent area but luckily we brought a tarp to cover over.

The campground was clean and well maintained. The host was very hospitable and knowledgeable about the trails and the fishing as well.
When reserving a site, be sure to check on how many steps there are to get down to the site. I didn't check and needed to carry my tent and all my gear down ten steps. It wasn't too bad, I need the exercise anyway.
All in all I had a great time at the Hilltop campground and Lynx Lake.

A wonderful location to walk down to the lake to fish or enjoy nature. The campsite is very clean, gave 4 stars because it would be nice to have water more accessible, the spout right next to our campground did not work. Overall the campsite was beautiful and quiet. Close to Prescott.
