Stayed in North loop site 32. Spacious clean site. Easy access. Needed about 3 inches of levelling blocks for our motorhome. Used 30 amp outlet. Very quiet this time of year.

Fantastic showers! Hundreds of goathead stickers kept it from 5 stars.

Nice and quiet this time of the year. One restroom open on the North side, with portable toilets at the closed restrooms.

I felt unsafe. There’s is no telephone or internet reception whatsoever!
The dumping station was out of order and had to go somewhere else and pay to dump.
This place needs to have a cellular tower and available wifi for campers safety.

Porta Potty’s, we’re disgusting. Filled to top. No toilet paper. No handicap access. Told Ranger and he replied we have service that handles that. Waste truck arrived to empty and clean porta potty. He left them in same condition he found them. Health Department should be called out for this and for not having handicap access. We have been here two months in a row and same old poop.

The grass was dry, stickers(goat heads) through out the camp grounds. They were in your shoes and had to remove them before we went into motorhome, tent or in our vehicle. Water kept getting shut off. It was like this when we were here in May. The dogs kept getting the stickers in their feet and stuck in their hair.

Very specious site (#21). Vacant sites exceeded occupied sites resulting in a pretty quiet campground. 30-amp service did not work. We didn't have a 50-amp. adapter so we don't know it that was working. Our 30-foot water hose was not long enough to reach the spicket. We were able to get by without electricity or water.

Very nice RV park. The only negative experience was our last day Saturday October 28, 2023, a group of tent campers were across the road and one of their dogs was loose and roaming all over the place. I tried to walk my mininature schnauzer but the large dog came running over to us and scared both of us. Had to put my dog in the truck as the large dog roamed all over the place. Other then that experience, we enjoyed the stay.

There was no one there to register, no place to pay. But the real problem was the bathrooms and showers were absolutely disgusting and there was even feces in the shower, when inquired the next day I was told that there was a youth group there before that had caused the mess and then he told me the water was shut off so they wouldn't be able to get in there to clean.
Plus the place is full of trash, mostly micro trash, everywhere you look at the ground there is trash.

Tule campground was very hot in August. Tho there were many small trees planted that should provide some shade in the far future. The lake was beautiful.
