De todos os campings quem ficamos, este sem dvidas era com mais estrutura. Banheiros limpos, chuveiro e espaos amplos. O que no gostamos foi do sinal de telefone, nossa operado no pegava no camping, 5 min antes de chegar no camping funcionava.

The Northside of the campground is much greener than the Southside, because it has a springer system, the Southside doesn't. Restrooms and showers were very clean. The Park personnel are very nice and not too nosey. I like that very much. I hate it when I feel I'm being watch. We had a nice time.

We arrived after the office was closed, so we might have missed a bit.But the campground was flat and had a lot of waterpoints which was nice. But you could feel that this location has a problem with unwanted visitors and therefore no "normal" guests. We were also warned by others about the homeless problem. Also the ground was so dry it was almost impossible to stick a peg good in the ground.Most of the showers/toilets were locked, so you couldn't use them and the rest wasn't is the best shape they have ever been in.Being next to the 190 and been told about a homeless/theft problem doesn't give you the best night although the bay/beach area was quiet.

Excellent place if you rate looking for some quiet place without anyone bothering you. But close enough to the city you can get anything you want. Not a place for swimming. There are no designated swimming shores. But if you are willing to rent a boat from the marina it is worth it. Bathrooms were clean and everything was easily accessible. I will be back for sure!!!

I liked the Tule place, the bathrooms and the camping area were very clean. I didn't go into the lake because there were a lot of people on the weekend and instead I took advantage of it to relax. I liked that there is a lot of security and the park rangers did activities such as safety talks and a movie night with drinks, gifts and free popcorn.

We had several campsites booked for our group, Several days before arrival, I received an email of cancellation of one of our reserved campsite without explanation. Once on site we were told of unsafe condition at campsite #32. No offer to rebook another site- welcome to the age of computer Bots! BEWARE -Puncture vine stickers throughout the campground.

Was unaware of how hot it gets, however camp sites are clean and host is a nice guy. Will go again in cooler weather

Beautiful place, but restrooms can be better.

The weeds in all the campsites are ridiculous. Fox tails and stickers everywhere. They need to scrap it all out and put gravel or water the grass! Dogs and kids had stickers everywhere.
@NydiaM1B5397CF · Camped on May 23, 2025 at Campsite #31
Grass could be greener
@BobG30F8BE93A2 · Camped on May 18, 2025 at Campsite #21
Stickers and ground squirrels were terrible. I came home with at least 20 itching bites of some kind although I never saw any mosquitoes. It wouldnt surprise me to be fleas or chiggers. With all of the ground squirrels I expected coyotes and rattlesnakes, none fortunately. Me and the other 2 campers will never go back.

@joseantoDFA746 · Camped on Apr 26, 2025 at Campsite #15
Realmente limpio y tranquilo. El espacio para estacionar la traila y dos carros comodamente.
@DanP5109623 · Camped on Apr 25, 2025 at Campsite #95
Good time had by our party of 4. We had two sites. I wish the public were more respectful of the restroom facilities that everyone uses.Unfortunately, a sign of the de-evolution of society.
@BernadettAA5EC · Camped on Apr 17, 2025 at Campsite #17
This was such a family friendly camping experience for my family of 5. Everything is well maintained and taken care of on the camping grounds and the bathrooms are very clean. Its very safe and greenly spacious on each campsite. We will be coming back soon for another outdoor camping experience for the kids to always remember. Thank you to the kind staff who is in charge for making it the best experience for every family to enjoy on the outdoor grounds.

The sites were very roomy and had water every 2 spaces. Sites were nice and level. Restrooms and showers are spread out across the site, but several buildings had showers closed. We didn't find out until the next day that they were open way across at the other end of the campground. So, they are there, just keep looking if yours are locked. Showers are a 6/10, they work but the design is poor and your stuff will get wet if it's not outside the door. There is a huge playground which is great. Lake access is easy and it's a beautiful location. Main downer is that road traffic is horribly loud. If you get a site and are tenting or open air, get it as far away from the road as possible, and definitely avoid the south end. As cars come across the bridge there is a horrid "thump... thump... thump... thump" that sounds like a giant basketball. The intermittent sound woke me up several times.

Very clean and comfortable campsite. Exactly as described.
@MarieM9095188 · Camped on Apr 10, 2025 at Campsite #54
We had site 54. Asphalt pad. Only issue was electrical. 50 amp did not work at all, and 30 amp was hit and miss. Had maintenance look at it and they replaced the outlets for both 30 and 50 amp service. 50 still did not work, but 30 did. Then 30 amp went out the next morning. Maintenance came out that afternoon and found a fault in one of the relays and replaced it. Then power came back up.
@JohnW6002125 · Camped on Apr 8, 2025 at Campsite #97
WE WERE THERE OVER THE EASTER HOLIDAY. THE ONE SITE BY US HAD AT LEAST 20 TO 30 PEOPLE THERE. NO RULES BEING ENFORCED.

This was my familys first time camping, so I was a bit nervous and unsure of what to expect. However, Tule Campground exceeded all our expectations. We stayed at the end of March, and the campground was absolutely beautiful, green, and with perfect weather.There are a couple of playgrounds, plenty of picnic and BBQ areas, and rentals for fun on the water, which made it a great spot for families. Our campsite (#45) was spacious, had a little shade, and was overall a great setup. The bathrooms nearby were relatively clean and well-maintained, though I do wish they had soap dispensers and a more consistent supply of toilet paper.Overall, I would absolutely stay here again! The campground is clean, well-kept, and the camp hosts were fantastic. Its a perfect getaway for families looking to relax and enjoy the outdoors. Highly recommend!

I just used PerfectCamp.com to book six consecutive August nights at the most popular campsite in one of the most popular campgrounds in Humboldt Redwoods State Park in California. That is not anything I could have accomplished anywhere else with the ease I did here! Thank you, PerfectCamp! I LOVE this site! You will find me on several other camping sites but the design, format, functionality, and personality of this the best. It’s fresh and clean.

Wow! Woke up this morning to a notification that a favorite had opened at Paulina, and when I went to check, it was there. This membership just paid for itself in the first 24 hours I owned it. Couldn't take the site it conflicted with a trip already set, but it truly was there. Thanks Tons.

@CarlaLThompson - Colorado

I just love this site and I tell everyone about it! It's so competitive to secure desired campsites and the alerts really help track when sites free up. The best part of this story is our alert notified a cancellation the next day!!!!!! Just incredible!!!
