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 werent there so we find the camp host, and his response was, I wasnt 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 didnt 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.

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
@maggiet71B665A · Camped on Jul 18, 2025 at Campsite #22
Well kept. Friendly host. Sites arent too close to each other and the bathrooms were pretty clean.
@BrittanyS62424 · Camped on Jul 17, 2025 at Campsite #20
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!

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.
@TimurGF2F1ADAF · Camped on Jun 21, 2025 at Campsite #23
The site was clean and neatly organized. Leveled perfectly. Plenty of trees considering Arizona climate.
@bradf2551374 · Camped on Jun 20, 2025 at Campsite #37
Clean and well maintained.
@AsifJ7F8DAF3E4 · Camped on Jun 20, 2025 at Campsite #30
Great location, closer to Prescott. Weather was very nice. Bathrooms need improvement
@JacqueM35E4473 · Camped on Jun 10, 2025 at Campsite #37
This was a nice quiet campground. I was blessed to have a mostly level site - most sites are, well, on a hilltop. You park (usually along the road) and hike down to your campsite. When I was younger I would have found this charming but at 72 years old I find I prefer more level sites. I did like the campground. As I said it was a quiet campground. Even though the sites are fairly close to each other I was very pleased with how thoughtful my fellow campers were.

@Christine51679 · Camped on Jun 6, 2025 at Campsite #35
It was the perfect campsite - very peaceful and serene. We loved the steps down to the site since it isolated us from the other sites as if we were right in the center of the forest.
@KimberlyT831D8 · Camped on May 30, 2025 at Campsite #31
I stayed in campground 31 with an RV. The site was level and perfect for an RV
@EduardoB4F83DC · Camped on May 25, 2025 at Campsite #19
Camping spot so small and not good for seniors
@ThomasL2772337 · Camped on May 22, 2025 at Campsite #34
Nice place to relax
@ShanandoaE2FF6 · Camped on May 16, 2025 at Campsite #23
Clean and quiet campsite. We will come back to Hilltop again!
@ANDREWL5237889 · Camped on May 15, 2025 at Campsite #37
Hidden Gem. Super clean and an excellent camp host that was always available and super helpful. Thank you ! Will be back again.
@AnitaN96C99157 · Camped on May 4, 2025 at Campsite #23
I stayed in campsite 23 which absolutely has a stunning view. I loved my stay here. I think this is the third or fourth time I have stayed here. The views cant be beat. The campground is clean and I love the short walk to Lynx Lake. I am a fan forever.
@Heidelore2FD79 · Camped on Apr 27, 2025 at Campsite #31
Well the site was good and clean however we saw no camp host or ranger checks the entire 4.5 days. Thankfully not many folks up there and all respectful however what if we needed something or had questions?
@JeffA9550709 · Camped on Apr 23, 2025 at Campsite #29
Clean campground and site. I did not use the restroom or any other facilities besides the site. Due to the size of my trailer, I had to use a double occupancy site. For $40+ per night, I felt it was over priced since there was not electric, water or sewer.
@RobertA1820332 · Camped on Apr 16, 2025 at Campsite #34
Nicely maintained campground, tall pines all around, water supply is working again after being off for a year. Verizon cell service is usable throughout but best in the C loop and weakest in the A loop.
@JamesP5278675 · Camped on Apr 13, 2025 at Campsite #33
Excellent work
@LauraD1350391 · Camped on Apr 7, 2025 at Campsite #12
Nice an quiet because only a few people were camped this time of year. The fire ring in our site an a few others we looked at while walking around camp were filled with trash, beer cans, chicken bones etc. Bathrooms were clean tho. Will probably camp here again but only in really slow season. If camp was fuller the noise level would be horrible because it would echo in the canyon.
@MatthewC862969 · Camped on Apr 4, 2025 at Campsite #13
Situated in a beautiful ponderosa pine forest, quiet, peaceful, close enough to town to be convenient, but far enough away for campground to feel remote. Clean and well maintained. I would camp here again.
@PATRICIA545438 · Camped on Oct 26, 2024 at Campsite #15
We love Hilltop. The campsite was clean and felt secluded. We hiked down to Lynx Lake with our dogs. It is a great hike and took about half an hour from our site. Will be back next year when the season opens.

I just used PerfectCamp.com to book six consecutive August nights at the most popular campsite in one of the most popular campgrounds in Humboldt Redwoods State Park in California. That is not anything I could have accomplished anywhere else with the ease I did here! Thank you, PerfectCamp! I LOVE this site! You will find me on several other camping sites but the design, format, functionality, and personality of this the best. It’s fresh and clean.

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!!!
