About Paradise Creek Campground

Paradise Creek sits at the confluence of Paradise Creek and the Wind River, nestled under an old-growth forest of cedars, firs, alder and maples. The sites by the river enjoy privacy from an abundance of lush undergrowth, while the other sites have a more open and spacious feel. The campground's remote location is ideal for campers seeking a quiet and relaxed environment.

I have been camping at Paradise Creek Campground for over 40 years and absolutely love it there! The campground is well kept, the out-houses are well maintained, the noise curfew is always honored and I feel safe, even being there alone.

We spent 2 nights here on the last weekend of the season with our son and his family and enjoyed it thoroughly. It was quiet, sites were large, with enough space between them, and the toilets were clean and well maintained. We drove to the trailhead for Falls Creek Falls and enjoyed the hike to the falls.

This is a beautiful place with plenty of trees and spacious campsites. The road noise is notable . The trail to the bluff is not maintained so there are a number of downed trees to climb over. We did a creek walk since the water level is low in September. The price is very reasonable. The Camp Hosts are largely absent but we didn’t need them either of the two times we were up there this September.

Switching to the same type of campsite for the same dates usually has no change fee, but price differences are charged or refunded.
