Paradise Creek is an awesome spot. We hiked to Falls Creek Falls over the weekend and played in the two nearby creeks at the campground. The host was also great and very helpful due to a scheduling mishap on my side. Our review is three stars because of the proximity of site 11 to the toilets. Lots of people and smells, also all we had was a van and it barely fit in the parking. I would not book this site. Or make site 11 first come first serve and make one of the first come first serve sites reservable. Other items were great stargazing and there is no cell coverage. We were pretty happy about both of those :-)

Pretty good location for visiting Mt St Helen and/or the Columbia River Gorge. Pretty and well shaded with some FCFS sites available.

Very nice campground. Our site was clean, up against the creek, with lots of privacy and old-growth trees. Only downside was during the summer afternoons, there were lots and lots of little gnats. Drove my kids crazy.

The campground itself is great - widely spaced sites with lots of separating foliage, great trees providing nearly complete shade, access to the creek and the river, and a trailhead. Unfortunately, many of our neighbors treated the campground as their private backyard for late night partying, with screaming, loud music, bright lights, and all this roaming through the campground. This went on well passed midnight. I don't know if this rowdy behavior is common at this campground, or was happening because the camp host was absent. Would recommend, but for the other campers.

We LOVE this little campground for it's peacefulness in the woods feel. Everyone is very friendly and polite. Safe for kiddos and pets. Great little creek to cool off in during the day.

Great place to camp. Sites are kept clean. There are many little spots to hang out by the creeks and get your feet wet. The camp host Kevin was very courteous and helpful. We'll be back next year.

Nice location, well maintained, and easy to get to! Campground host was at Beaver Creek but stopped in a couple times per day (no firewood for sale). No issues!

Beautiful location with a peaceful creek. The campsite we reserved wasn’t very private, but the campground has other spots that offer more seclusion. There’s access to the Lava Butte Trail, which was a little hard to follow at first. We had to navigate around some rocks before the path became clearer. It’s a short but steep hike—less than half a mile in, we came across what we believe was a cougar.
