Since there was no dumping station near by, no light in the bath, no hand washing in the bath, no water to fill the water tank for the RV and a huge hole in the middle of the road almost impossible to avoid driving over it, thus no service or amenity the price was way to high!!!!!

This campground is a gem. Sites are spacious and far enough away from each other. Bathrooms are clean. Water spigots areas are clean. Camp is well maintained. Lots of trees, rock outcroppings, and fun exploring options for actual kids and kids at heart. Great, close proximity to multiple hiking and mtn biking trails, as well as abundant road biking options.

Pretty basic. Just a flushing toilet and water spigot. A bit buggy the time of the year we were there. Lots of hikes on the road campground is on. After our trip we think staying at Osos campground might be better. A nice trail off of it.

Very well maintained campground with awesome amounts of space. In spite of the dry, drought conditions, and therefore the fire safety precautions including a ban on campfires, it was such a lovely experience being at Paradise Campground. I was very impressed with the place and the site host is very nice and on top of things.
