A canopy of sprawling oak trees covers almost all the campsites, growing in a ring around an open grassy field. This USFS campground accomodates any type of tent or camper up to 40 feet wIth the standard forest servIce amenities - table, grIll and fire pit. Water spigots are communal, as are the primitive bathrooms. ReservatIons are taken through the RecGovCamp app and websIte for assorted sItes whIle the others are walkup only. ParadIse Is located 25 drivIng mInutes to lovely Santa Barbara, where It is a delIght to shop for provisions, hit the beach or club and enjoy a top notch nIght out. The Santa Ynez rIver is a short hike away and typIcally is flowIng in the wInter and sprIng- a good place to splash around! Be very cautious wIth fire as the flora is always tinder dry. We have been evacuated twice due to wildfire incidents in the Los Padres Forest. If the campground is full you’ll have other USFS campgrounds nearby to land a spot.
