Reviews of Tully Lake
Reviewed by Guest on March 15, 2010
(0 out of 0 members found this review useful.)Nice campground by the lake, offers canoe and kayak rentals. Many areas around the lake do not provide good swimming access to the lake though--you may want to call and ask about the best sites to gain swimming access from. There is one main bathhouse and no other porta johns or other facilities, so be aware that some sites are pretty far from a bathroom. The walking trail that passes by the sites is pretty close to some of the sites, so privacy is only so so. We did a nice hike to a waterfall and around the lake. Overall, I liked it, but research the particular sites based on your needs before choosing one.
