We always enjoy Hilltop Campground. It is clean and well maintained. We have easy access to potable water and vault toilets. Lynx Lake is just down the hill. Our only minor hiccup this trip was the late night noise from other campsites. We had someone using impact tools at 1:00am, and a generator running all night. I have not experienced this on any other visit.

Our family has been doing a Mother’s Day campout for several years and the last three have been at Hilltop Campground. We have been very satisfied with everything. We already have one of the group spots reserved for 2025 Mother’s Day.

We had a great time at Hilltop. The spaces were far enough apart to feel private.
There was hiking right from the campground to Lynx lake.

Our campsite was given away because the host did not do their due diligence to check we were there and gave away our second night reservation - We booked our campsite for two nights and were camping in our rooftop tent. The first night we arrived at 8:30 PM and left at 5:00 AM because we like to start early. We decided not to leave things at the site because of bears and our rooftop tent comes with us. When we arrived back for our second night, the host had given away our site to another family. The family said the host told them we hadn’t been there in 24 hrs so our res was automatically cancelled. Luckily the family was very sweet and let us car camp next to their truck, however it could have been a really uncomfortable situation and almost left us stuck without a place to stay. Would appreciate if the host would actually do the work to check if people are there, especially
hikers who start early and end late and prefer to leave minimal impact on the site

2nd year in a row staying at the same site. Close to the water and the bathroom. My favorite spot. Always clean. My wife has Verizon and I have at&t, we both get excellent service and data. Helps us feel safer.

Nice campground and area not far from Prescott, But the water faucets were few and far between that work. I had a faucet near our camp-site in Loop C but it didn't work so I had to go to the Loop B to get any water. Having a motorhome I either had to walk or bike. I was lucky to have the bike as it was about a half mile away, so I had to make multiple runs to get a few gallons.
