Tule Campground offers a pleasant camping experience with spacious, well-separated sites and a friendly camp host. Many visitors appreciate the clean facilities, beautiful lake views, and ample family-friendly activities such as biking and fishing. However, there are recurring issues with restroom cleanliness and maintenance, which detracts from the overall experience for some campers.

The grass was really died and sticker all over. They ended up in our trailer making it difficult to walk in our trailer. Water was turned off for most of the day. The lake was full which made it nice

We camped at Success Lake in Springville, CA site 76 right next to the water with a beautiful view. We had to clean up all the trash, cigarette butts, broken liquor bottles and liquor caps everywhere. Folks had used the perforated table for cooking on, what a mess. Could not set or do anything with that greasy mess. 3 Large trash cans parked right in the middle of the view of the lake. If you were sitting at the table in the camper you could use the wall in the corner of windows to block the cans and get a beautiful view! LOL

Bathrooms & showers almost all out of order. The one shower that worked was filthy w bugs/dirt and had only cold water. Witnessed bathroom cleaning lady pull up & open each door without going in-despite the visible bugs and trash on floor of the same doors i had JUST opened! She then picked up 2 pieces of paper on lawn & got in her car & went to next bathroom where I timed her at 3 min. Nice pay gig. She drove maroon PT cruiser & she needs to be fired.

The ck in staff gave no direction or map to which campground and did not come into the drizzling rain to give our pass but came out 5 min later to stand there in the rain and smoke.

I have raved about the COE parks we have camped at through the years. There have been many and in various different states. They were all meticulous and everything in perfect working order. My gosh, Tule Campground at Success Lake is an embarrassment and should be avoided by anyone but locals to launch their boats on what is a beautiful lake.

Simple Camground south of Seqouia NP. Well-maintained restrooms and warm showers. Big campsites, kinda far from each other.

I Love this Camp grounds. Great price only$20 dollars a day. 8 people 2 cars. Hot showers for free. Really hot. The best showers we have used out of many campsites we've been to. They do not allow any type of tree tents. We got shut down. That's OK though. The lake is just a short walk away. Restrooms are clean. No electrical outlets wich is fine by me. Different sites have arbors some don't. Fire pits in every site. Great Camping for a 1st time family. All around I give it a 8 out if 10.

We had a great time ! The weather was comfortable. The camp hosts were great and gave us a heads up when there was a problem with the dump station. One word of advice would be to bring an extra water hose as the water bibs in Tule North sites can be quite a ways from your site. Nice affordable place to camp !

This is a very nice campground and I will return. I gave 4 stars and not five because on arrival my site was very dirty the fire pit had trash in it, cans, a 1/2 full jug of milk and so on. The campsite overall was littered with the left overs of Easter. The wonderfull host did come over with a blower and cleaned off most of the litter, I cleaned the fire pit.
The dump station was out of service and I had to go elswhere and pay $20.00 to the outfit up the road but that said it was some miscreant that tossed there cloths down the pipe at the dump and plugged things up.
Did I say the host was graet as well as the rangers.
Good job
