My husband and I are caretakers of a campground. Our hiring agreement stated that we were to receive a percentage of monies from camp income. They sold an easement of 25 feet on the property. We believe we are entitled to our percentage of that money but fear they will put up a fight. Would we have a case to put a lien on camp property as they are discussing selling the property? If so, how do we got about it?

I don't see how selling a portion of the campground property is camp income. It is the right of the landowners. Therefore I don't think you would be entitled to it. I see camp income as being campsites rented out, and that is what you are entitled to being the caretakers of the per se campground. I really don't think you have a case to put a lien on camp property because you are not the owners of it, just employees.
You had better read the small print in your hiring agreement or consult a lawyer before you go about this. You may wind up with egg on your face.

I will agree with the others, income would be camp rentals, renting equipment and other income items. The sell of camp real estate and other camp sales of real property while they are making a profit it would not normaly be income as determined in a employment contract, unless it is based on total profit and loss at the end of a quarter or year.
But if they don't pay you, and you believe you should be, you have to sue them in court and win, after you win, depending on the state you have rights to do various things including a lien on property
