Morrow Mtn campground

Feb. 2022, our 2nd stay in the Uwharrie National Forest, another small campground with electricity but no water at the individual sites, spigots around the campground. We were in loop C, site 72. Most of the camp sites had picnic table and firepit at the rear of the site, not along the side, which we found a little odd. Great trails nearby, although it was about a mile to the lake and the trailheads. Nice, big bathhouse with very hot water! While in generally good repair the bathhouse could use some fresh paint and a little TLC. Very friendly camp host who had free firewood for us. Lots of down trees and evidence of fire as we drove into the Forest, and saw the same along the hiking trails, which were well graded and marked. Some great views along the trails. Overall a great campground.

Just love Morrow Mountain! One of my favorite places. I come alive in the Mountains.

Camping and hiking review. More like 3 1/2 stars actually. My wife and I have been full time RVr's for the past 2 1/2 years, blog link in bio. This 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 Bathrooms are reasonably close, hottest showers yet in our time on the road, outdated, but seemed clean.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. At the campground loop C, sporadic VZ 4G 2bars, some OATV. Hiking: 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. Many 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.

Easy access by car all the way to the top.

Beautiful mountains and amizing view!!!

Gorgeous lake with kayak/canoe rentals available, fantastic pool and campground, and an abundance of hiking and equestrian trails. Though the Uwharries lack in altitude in comparison to other mountains, they provide a more approachable and accessible access to their natural wonder. The peak of Morrow mountain can be driven to fairly quickly, with picnicking areas at the top, but their are still trails encircling the peak, as well as trails from the base to the peak for the avid hiker. Morrow's prominence over the surrounding landscape accords several excellent overlooks at the peak, with amazing views of the lakes and the rolling piedmont hills.

Great camping spot. Lots of trees, hot showers, spacious and scenic....

This is very easy car camping. As in they have sites and bathhouses for you and the family. Easy to get your family into camping with out truly camping. It’s just dipping your toe in the water of the world but it’s fun for families.

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.

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!
