There are just a few things to realize when camping here. A lot of the sites are on slopes. It's just a matter of the terrain at the campground. I was on site 15 and it is fairly level, but a little tight for backing a trailer into. I'd definitely pay attention to the max trailer length. The sites are pretty well spaced and because it has a lot of trees, you don't feel like you're on top of your neighbors. The camp host was really friendly and came around and checked on things regularly. You can hike to Lynx Lake from the campground, but it's fairly steep terrain so it is a lot of up and down.

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.
