Paradise Ridge Private Campground

We were comfortable.  The entrance was difficult to identify and gate was a nuisance, but the porta potty was super clean as was the campsite.  Site 3 was pretty small for a pull through even though our trailer is less than 20' and the picnic table was awkward.  I would have set up differently if I was staying longer, but just a couple of nights and overall we were pleased with the location and atmosphere.

Campsite was clean, small and not super secluded, but very close to Mount Rainier. So close, in fact, that if there’s traffic going into the park, there’s traffic getting to the campground (unless there’s a back way I was unaware of?) We went early to beat the crowds but on the way out of the park traffic was backed up over a mile. We also went on one of the busiest weekends of the year so I’m sure most days it’s not as much of an issue.

The campground was perfectly adequate for our needs and super close to the park. Unfortunately the description makes it seems like there are 30amp hooks at every site which is not true. There is a hookup at site 1 and a hookup in the common area (not very useful as it is too far away from the sites). A on site hookup would have been nice in this heat to turn on our van’s ac.
