We really enjoy paradise Creek. If camping here they have a great trail the lava bute trail. We were just here and the bridge over the creek on the trail was washed away, but you could still cross. The campground has vaulted toilets. Close to many other great things to see on the area like the Carson hatchery, panther creek falls, the ape caves, and Mt. St Helens. Many of those require a forest pass, but it's only $5 a day for the car, and you can buy them at the forestry visitor station. Some of the sites on front are closer to the road so we prefer the back side of the campground so we don't have to hear cars driving by, but even then it's not too bad.
