Very scenic place!! We spent 6 nights here, hiked & biked a lot. Off season, so some of the amenities were closed (pool looks awesome). The campground itself isn't really all that great, prepare for some levelling. We lucked out in the B loop, as a small trail (Grassy Overlook trail) took us to see the northern lights one evening. I highly suggest stopping here for a few nights, an under rated area.
Guide
We arrive very late, after all day travels from Florida. My phone had three bars, Verizon 5G ultra wide signal.
Guide
Staff were GREAT!! Very clean bathrooms and hot showers. Grounds were clean and well maintained. 50+ sites with 4 bathrooms scattered in campground and 2 host sites. Wildlife abundant.
Traveler
I’ve stayed here at least a dozen times. Nice loop with decks to put your tent on. Bathhouse is nice and has been renovated in the last few years.
Scout
This place was awesome. Private but well equipped with all the necessities you need. Very pleasant.
GuideStayed 4 nights in section D. Our site was ok. There were a lot better sites to stay though. Staff was helpful and friendly. We had full hookups. Lots of shade.
Scout
Their website is from 2018. They have new owners and have let transit stay there campers look terrible. The place is really went downhill. It used to be really nice. Beware if you have a new camper. Looks like that newest campers like a 2010.
Guide
We absolutely loved Camp Burson at Hungry Mother. The camp was clean and friendly. The spaces were somewhat close together, but they were large, so it didn’t bother us. There was a hiking spot just across the road, a camp store with ice and firewood, and a nice bath house with flush toilets and showers. The beach was a short drive away. The staff there was very nice and the beach was well maintained. The real stars were the camp hosts, The Viles. The sweetest couple. So friendly and helpful. They made our stay so much better. Highly recommend this campground. If there was a playground here, it would be 5 stars. There was one by the beach, but not within walking distance.
TravelerGreat spot, private, with good running water hot showers and flush toilets. Picnic table and fire ring with grate, the creek by our site was so nice and bubbling. Every spot was private and maintained. Absolutely no issues and was worth the $20, easy check in, self check out. Felt very safe here despite it being remote
Scout
Beautiful campsite. Well maintained. Bring ur own Wi-Fi as there is No cell coverage and the Wi-Fi does not work.
Ranger
Very nice and comfy! Don’t make the same mistake I did and tent camp outside in a huge storm - just stay inside!
ScoutI wonderful place for fishing and hiking. The lake is beautiful and the Camp is clean and quiet. We love it.

When looking for a convenient ride on the trails and a place to stay that provides for all your needs, Hilltop Escape is the place! The campground is literally on several trails. Restaurant on-site. From breakfast to supper. Campfires in the evening. Lodging is comfortable and CLEAN! The stars from the mountaintop at night are amazing. The owner will meet you with a smile and can answer any question from the best place ride to giving helpful hints. Enjoy your time at Hilltop Escape.
ScoutWe stay here all season! Love all of the rentals and the campsite is top notch! Always clean and in great shape. Right next to outlaws and Hatfield McCoys plus a terrific restaurant right there at camp. We LOVE Hilltop Escape and highly recommend for all ages!
ScoutClean, well maintained campground. Rv sites are large and easy access to back into your site. Fire pits and picnic tables. Restaurant right next door. Cabin and camper rentals very well kept. Trails are literally out your front door. Popular place to stay yet not crowded. Don't be fooled by other places claiming to be right on the trails. This is it!
Guide
I have stayed there many times. Awesome camping. Great views friendly staff
TravelerWe had unseasonably warm temperatures in October. Fall colors were just past peak. Our site was clean, spacious, level. Easily accommodated our 25 foot RV. Trails started close to our site and were just beautiful. Bath house was ok. There is a washer and dryer available. Plenty of grass for the pups to enjoy.
TravelerStayed here at the end of October and saw amazing foliage change. Beautiful colors hard to see elsewhere. The trails were great and clearly well maintained. Mike and Pam were fantastic helping us get settled. Likely will go back to catch some snow.

This place is great. Wife and I stayed in the cabin. Owner of the camp is awesome. We had our own bathroom in the bath house. They also have big cabins, tent and RV spots. There is also a full size kitchen in the bath house. There is a e throwing, fire pit, ping pong, plenty of board games, tv’s, internet, great views, a small waterfall, and the best camp dog around (Gunner).
RangerLoved my site- I’m a tent camper and my tent just fit on the site- I had a tent footprint and padding inside my tent so as not to damage the tent floor - the site is a paved site meant for campers but I wanted to be by the creek! The bathrooms were in great condition and the camp hosts were very friendly!
Scout
Beautiful campground with cool playground, pool, pond, and arcade for kids. But the owners are grouchy.
RangerThe sites are spaced perfectly, the forest is beautiful, and the creek is super clear and clean. Our site (44) is great, right by the trail and creek. Super nice hosts and everyone we met was friendly. Very quiet place. No playground or extras, but our boys didn't mind- the creek was great and the whole place is paved so it was great for scooters. It's a 3/4 mile loop around the campground. Great place!
ScoutWe just spent the night, did not get to use any of the facilities. Beautiful ride in, drove by so many deer on the side of the road. Very clean, well organized, sites are almost level on their own. Not a lot of privacy, but plenty of room. We will have to come back and spend more time.
Guide
This place is in the middle of nowhere. Literally. It is so amazing for hiking and bird watchers alike. To rejuvenate your mind and soul. Didn’t see a single person for three days. Driving to a store is like a million miles away so don’t forget anything
Traveler
Nice campground. Water views, but not every site has lake access. Poplar #63 didn’t have water access, but members of my group across the street allowed me to access the lake from their sites (60 & 62). The ire was flat. Directions to the site via navigation app were good. Road was in good condition. There was a bit of boat noise and some road noise. Generators shut down at 10, so that was nice. Watch out for the squirrels; they are sneaky and watching you. Don’t walk away with food on the table!
LegendEasily accessible with a large RV. Has multiple pull through sites, bath house and laundry close by. We were there during off season so some of the park was closed and they collected payment through honor system. We did some great hikes and walked around the beach area which was very nice. Would love to revisit during warmer months.
ScoutWe stayed at campsite 6, beautiful location on the river, not much space in between campsites and we were robbed on our last night there. Other than that we had a good experience, just make sure you lock things in your car or have them in your tent/RV.
