Campground is need of a camp host that cares. Our campsite welcomed us with trash on the ground, rainbow painted picnic table, personal items hanging from trees, fire pit full of trash. Our neighbor was loud after hours, daily walks with his dogs off leash, constant barking, and his campsite looked like a garage sale. So much potential for Hilltop Campground, but the park needs supervision to ensure all campers have a positive experience. Our campsite, #28, states tandem site…NOT! Only for tents. This site should be a single site charge when booking an RV. We hope to return and have a better experience in the future.

Camped for three nights at Hilltop and enjoyed the stay. We were in Loop C, which was very wooded and quiet. Loop A is a “first come first served” and Loop B and C are reservation only, but the entire campground is pine trees, and the sites have picnic tables and fire rings. There were several hiking trails within two miles of the campground, and Lynx Lake a mile away. The bathrooms were clean and there was water available throughout the campground. Town is only about 4 miles away so if you forget something you can easily find it!

Great quiet campground. Loved the trail system that goes through the loops. Close to town if you need anything.

The perfect campground for exploring in Prescott National Forest and visiting the town of Prescott. It's a short drive to most places. Most sites are spaced out. In site 24 there was privacy on 3 sides with no one in sight. It had a little shade in the morning and afternoon but was mostly sunny. The open site made for good stargazing at night. A pit toilet, water spigot and trash can are about 100 ft away from #24.

the original space given to me was not remotely able to handle my 26 foot Motorhome. Thanks to the great Hosts in Hilltop, they were able to move me to a spot able to handle my RV. Otherwise, it would have been a terrible weekend.

Great campsite location. Privacy was key to our stay. Campsite was shaded well, but with an exception of mid-day (11am-2pm).

If you don't want to climb steps. This site is not recommended.

Parking space was more than enough, for two full size trucks (paralleled parking only)
