Super quiet, shaded and clean
This is a nice, quiet, and secluded feeling campsite. Though it’s near the 242, the road is not busy. Mostly used by bicycles and during a good chunk of the year there’s a snow gate blocking further up. Shade throughout the day, whispering rapids through the bushes, beautiful sky at night. I wish…

Small campground but really nice!
Limberlost is a great alternative if you can’t get into Paradise Campground. Limberlost is small but clean having all the basics you need. No cell service with Verizon and this campground is super close to Proxy Falls trailhead that has a beautiful waterfall.
Lovely, cozy campgroud
12 is great. #11 is pretty good. There are several that are great to group together for a few families or group. Gateway to many hikes -short drive on scenic hwy. and lakes. Cheap and reservable.
