The campgrounds were lush and spacious, first time camping and the restrooms and running water really helped for someone who is new to camping.

When we arrived to Paradise campground we were happily surprised at the fact that the campground seemed small but the with a good distance separating the campgrounds, also, in general the grounds were well kept and clean. The bathrooms were clean and the hostesses were very nice, helpful and friendly. Something we enjoy was the trails on the other side of the road by the creek.
