Thousand Trails - Paradise Resort

We stayed in this park for 2 weeks in late June/early July 2019 as a base to visit Mount St. Helens and Mount Rainier NP.  This Thousand Trails campground is much like other Thousand Trails in that the sites were small and close together.  We were in site 99.  It was paved but quite unlevel, very short and narrow but pull through with just enough room to park our small tow car.  It was FHU but only 30 amp, no Wifi or cable, Verizon was 4G 3-4 bars.  We had a picnic table but not enough flat space to make it usable.  The campground is hilly and sites are tiered.  There isn’t too much shopping nearby.  We did not use the bathrooms.  The laundry had 4 washers and 4 dryers but 2 of each were out of order.  The cost for each was $2.25.  They have a code to get in afterhours but when we went to use it the code did not work.  They had changed it on the 1st of the month but failed to tell us.

Absolutely swamped on Labor Day weekend. The four-star rating is for after the Labor Day weekend rush. Very nice spot after most of the weekenders went home on Monday morning. Last day for this season will be 9/23/2019.  The store closed yesterday for the season. TT Chehalis is only about 20 miles away, as is the city of Chehalis. Try to park in the lower parking area and avoid the sites 1-81 hillside parking if you can.

Nice park on the trees with lake. Spots are way out of level!  Dusty road coming in. Got dust all over the rear of the moho and the road!!  Nasty
