Morrow Mountain State Park Campground

Camping and hiking review. More like 3 1/2 stars actually.nnMy wife and I have been full time RVr's for the past 2 1/2 years, blog link in bio.nnThis is our first time in NC, and with hiking being our pursuit this was an excellent choice. On a 7 day stay we've hiked every day right from site #77. For a 38' class A this is a prime spot. Easy back in, plenty long, 50a, and one of the few water fill spigots we can top off our tank with a 50' hose is next to us. Bathrooms are reasonably close, hottest showers yet in our time on the road, outdated, but seemed clean. The road in, extremely tight for RV's with reduced visibility and no shoulders should you encounter another RV coming at you.nnAt the campground loop C, sporadic VZ 4G 2bars, some OATV.nnHiking: get a map of the trails from the office. We use a variety of free trail apps that work off of gps for location and tracking data. Alltrails & Maps.ME (free versions), and US Topo Maps (paid).nnMany hiking options. We've been doing around 6 miles each day. Sugarloaf (hike CCW if you prefer steep up and easy down instead of easy up and steep down if done as a loop) and Hattaway (similar steepness either direction) are fun, but the trails are 'fall-line' in places making them steep and uncomfortable for anyone who isn't experienced. The Fall mountain trail has been our favorite so far. Morrow Mtn is good for ling open views, but the hike up suffers from yet again another fall-line trail of about 1/8 mile.

It's not east Tennessee, but the amenities were incredible. Super hot showers and bathrooms always clean. 38 degrees outside and a supremely hot, steamy shower? Yes please. Will be back.

I camped two nights at Morrow Mountain in the winter and only loop C was open. My site was nice and big and a good ways from any neighbors. A very pretty wooded area and hilly but the tent pad was mostly flat. Campground host was very friendly and drove around on the golf cart selling firewood. Bathrooms were pretty clean and there are showers with hot water. Morrow Mountain is a nice park with lots of hiking trails, so a good location and not far from Albemarle if you want to eat at a restaurant or need a grocery store. My wife had to work so I camped solo, but we'll probably come back some time soon to camp with the dog.

Went to check out sites to take RV up next time. Excited to go back.

Loved camping here with friends and family. Surprisingly clean bathroom with hot showers was good. There was a water faucet near the camp site. Park ranger drove around the camp ground with fire wood for sale so we didn't have to drive to get more. Kids enjoyed fishing and canoeing at the lake. Morrow mountain has several trails. Totally this recommend this place!
