The Paradise Inn operates seasonally, typically open from late May through early October when snow conditions permit access. The post office assignment uses city carrier classification despite the remote mountain setting, reflecting its status as a named facility rather than a rural delivery zone. Mail service supports the lodge's operations during the tourist season, though the building itself closes during winter months when Paradise receives some of the heaviest snowfall in North America.
The single street record uses the lodge name itself rather than a traditional street address, reflecting the ZIP's purpose as an administrative designation for a named National Park landmark rather than a conventional delivery zone.
ZIP Code 98398 is designated for PO Box delivery only; business establishment and employment data are not available.
