Paradise Campground

Paradise Campground did not disappoint. We settled in for 3 nights at campsite #52 right by the river close to the end of the season. Rich and Cam were great hosts. Not many campers so the campground was very quiet and peaceful. Will continue to come back. Lots of activities close by, but relaxing at the campsite was great as well.

Most often I boondock so I can avoid being around other campers. I also feel safer boondocking. My daughter was flying in from CO to join me camping and requested a campground with a toilet.||||Paradise has reservable sites and a large number of first come sites. All are wonderful. Lots of vegetation, trees and space between the sites for privacy. Sites include a table and fire pit. Drinkable safe water and garbage containers provided. Each site is surrounded by old growth trees and many of the sites are river front. Site parking is paved. Several of the sites would be challenged to fit two vehicles. Firewood for sale at $7 per small bundle.||||I can't find enough words to express how much I loved my five day stay at Paradise campground. Like most USFS campgrounds it was origina

Our tent site was backed up to the McKenzie River. The sounds of the river all night long was so calming. The park staff kept the restrooms clean and stocked. No showers, but flush toilets were excellent. Ez drive in and out. McKenzie Bridge services were within driving distance for ice, and a great selection of camping supplies.

This is a beautiful place but beware of noisy campers. We endured till 5am, drunk, obnoxious, loud, animal type behavior. No one slept in our group of seven. The camp hosts did nothing to quiet them. They did leave after one night, however, no campers should have to endure that.

Wonderful campground. sites are close but not on top of each other, with lots of shrubbery that separates some sites so you have a feeling of privacy. Lots of trees which means lots of shade. You can access the McKenzie river trail right from the entrance of the campground. The hosts Cam and Rich were fantastic! Always available, helpful, kind and informative; very hardworking. Bathrooms were kept clean, sites were clean. Everything looked well cared for. Plenty of water but no showers. It's a large campground (60 something sites, I think) and very popular even though there are no hookups that I could see. Lots of large families in large RVs. Dog friendly. I stayed for 4 days in a small tent and felt safe and comfortable. I will definitely be staying again!
