South Tule Campground

## Overview

Tule Campground is located at Success Lake in the Sierra Nevada foothills just
8 miles east of Porterville, California. A variety of outdoor recreational
activities abound, including boating, kayaking and fishing. During the summer,
join Park Rangers for Campfire Programs, fun activities, and giveaways every
Saturday evening at the campground registration building.

## Recreation

The lake provides great opportunities for boating and swimming. Kayaking the
lake's quiet, unpopulated coves is a favorite activity. Anglers fish for bass,
crappie, catfish, bluegill and the occasional trout.

## Facilities

The campground is open year round and offers 103 sites, several of which have
electric hookups. Flush toilets, showers, drinking water and a dump station
are provided. Playgrounds and boat ramps are located on-site. Campfire
programs are presented at the amphitheater on Saturdays from Memorial Day
weekend to Labor Day weekend. Campground gates are closed from 10p.m. to 6
a.m.

## Natural Features

Success Lake, when full, covers 82,500 acre-feet of water with a surface area
of 2,450 acres. One acre-foot is equal to 325,872 gallons of water!  
  
The campground sits on the northeastern shore of the lake, in an area dotted
with sparse stands of trees. Shade is limited, but springtime wildflowers
bloom on the surrounding foothills, creating a beautiful display of color.
