The site was clean and neatly organized. Leveled perfectly. Plenty of trees considering Arizona climate.

When someone speeds through the campground I have a problem with that. I should have said something but I didn't. That was my only issue.

Campgrounds were nice, but the lake was way Lower then the pictures showed, if you're handicapped. Don't bother going to fishing if you camp

Hilltop is a really great campground with a friendly host. Sites are well-spaced and great for tent camping. Certain sites are better built for trailers and motor homes, so make sure to do your research on which sites are best for your situation! Loop C seems to be closest to the trails that lead you to Lynx Lake. Prescott Valley is only about 15 minutes away in case you forgot something and need to go to town to get more. There are water spigots at the campground, which is helpful! Overall a great campsite and we will return!

The site was good. We booked it for Friday and Saturday night. We stayed Friday night and went on a day trip to Crown King on Saturday leaving at 8:30am. We overland so all of our stuff is in or on our vehicle. We came back to the site around 4p and someone took our spot! They weren’t there so we find the camp host, and his response was, “I wasn’t here last night and they said they had the spot this morning”. Why are we not checking reservation verification?!? The host put us in another spot which we didn’t really enjoy because it had zero shade and was really set up for a 5th wheel. We enjoy this campground but please figure out a way to hold people accountable and stop them from taking spots from those who paid for them. Really disappointed.

Beautiful spot close to a trail. We were very happy that we brought a shade tent since it was direct sun for a good amount of the day. We were able to setup a hammock with the trees nearby.
