Great space!

The camp ground was beautiful except for the problem of having no water available in the entire camp ground nor down by the lake. The lake is beautiful but the parking on weekends is a nightmare. They definitely need to add more parking.

Site 20 in Hilltop Campground is great for tent camping but not so good for RVs or travel trailers. That's because the pad is basically just a shoulder of the road that travels through the campground. Tent campers will be treated to a nice flat, well-groomed area to pitch a tent (or two) adjacent to a huge concrete picnic table and fire ring.

Me and my family LOVED IT!!!! We wished we could have stayed longer, but we had no idea we would be camping at hiltop until the day of. So unfortunately, we were only able to book for one night, but it was still absolutely amazing. The host was AMAZING!!!!! The campsite that we had was BEAUTIFUL! It was almost set up like an apartment lol I Recommend this campsite! YOU WILL FALL IN LOVE AS ME AND MY FAMILY DID. We plan to go back I'm a few weeks/months. And the price is so cheap.

Amazing site and campground! Host Andrew is super friendly and helpful!
@andyh7212695 · Camped on Jul 5, 2024 at Campsite #20
Camp sites are set apart with some space. No water or hookups is more difficult.
@GinaG4664128 · Camped on Jun 28, 2024 at Campsite #16
Very clean campsite. Close to the lake but recommend that you go early as parking was tough. Love that its close to Prescott and the amount of trees there were. Campsite attendant was very helpful and was present during our stay and even cleared out a group that was in our campsite without a reservation before we arrived.

Beautiful, clean campground close to Lynx Lake.
@ChrisRC876B96A · Camped on Jun 7, 2024 at Campsite #19
Easy access to lynx lake area and a great host in the park. Had a great time!!

Hilltop Campground is a very nice family campground. Many sites are shaded and sites aren't on top of each other. The campground is located far enough so you can enjoy the forest and close enough to shopping. And the Camp Host, Andrew is very nice and checks on his campers frequently. Andrew helps make your camping experience very enjoyable.

Our family has been doing a Mothers 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 Mothers Day.

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.
@GORDONS4052342 · Camped on May 1, 2024 at Campsite #34
many good sites with shade. well maintainedwith a friendly host that makes sure the campers enjoy their stay. highly recommended.

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 hadnt 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

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.
@JohnS6889697 · Camped on Apr 16, 2024 at Campsite #12
site was very clean, quiet, peaceful, relaxing! we will definately do this again!
@KevinK9789719 · Camped on Apr 13, 2024 at Campsite #34
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.
@AndrewB2067797 · Camped on Apr 11, 2024 at Campsite #27
We love the trail and lake access. Clean campground with nice camp/RV sites.
@BertGD045FC63D · Camped on Apr 9, 2024 at Campsite #23
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.

Site 15 is a very location
@DavidL8659169 · Camped on Oct 28, 2023 at Campsite #16
The camp sight was clean and ready for us to enjoy the weekend. The outhouse was clean and water is provided for washing dishes. The park attendant was very nice and helpful. We will camp there again.
@GregoryM823083 · Camped on Oct 28, 2023 at Campsite #27
Great campsites that are close to Lynx Lake as well as the great hiking trails that are nearby. Campsites are in great condition!
@JulieZ1767046 · Camped on Oct 24, 2023 at Campsite #26
Should not have to reserve (and pay extra fee) when so many reservation only sites were unoccupied. No campground hosts were available to answer questions.
@PatriciaM16546 · Camped on Oct 19, 2023 at Campsite #26
The campground and bathrooms were very clean? We were able to use our phones most of the time. Great hiking trails, one of which led to Lynx Lake. So pretty!

Thanks to all our Supporting Members

@BranJen - Santa Clara, CA

I wanted to thank you for this site and especially for the notifications feature. Thanks to your site and my subscription I was able to book a campsite I've been annoyingly trying to book for 5 years unsuccessfully. So thank you.

@Wondering - Oregon

Wow! Woke up this morning to a notification that a favorite had opened at Paulina, and when I went to check, it was there. This membership just paid for itself in the first 24 hours I owned it. Couldn't take the site it conflicted with a trip already set, but it truly was there. Thanks Tons.

@CarlaLThompson - Colorado

I just love this site and I tell everyone about it! It's so competitive to secure desired campsites and the alerts really help track when sites free up. The best part of this story is our alert notified a cancellation the next day!!!!!! Just incredible!!!
