North Carolina State Parks
We have been visiting this park for almost 30 years. For the past 5 years we have taken our grandsons and booked cabin #2. The wildlife and hiking is wonderful. Look forward to this trip every year. WONDERFUL!! Morrow Mtn. has always been my favorite.
My parents took me there as a child to go swimming in the pool, and it was cold. very refreshing.
Now I ride my motocycle to the park every chance I get. Only a hour and 15 minutes from home. Nice ride through Badin Lake area.
Morrow mtn views are spectacular and alot closer than my other favorite place Blue Ridge Parkway. Happy 75 th BPW. This wonderful park has all that any outdoor person could ask for. Great gentle or strenuous trails for hiking, beautiful scenery, wildflowers, laurels, river views, old homesteads, but most of all, a very wonderful, helpful staff. This is where my fiance proposed to me. It was perfect, romantic, and an all around wonderful place! We love this park so much we go there every year and take out the boat in the water I just wanted to say this is the best park EVER.
Finding more and more places to see every weekend. Love hiking all the trails. The bridle trails could use a little tree clearing though. Now exploring the non-trail areas of the park and loving it. I love Morrow Mountain State Park!
Deer came right up to my car. The park was so clean and beautiful. I went to a birthday party on the edge of the mountain. Very nice! I could not take my eyes off the view from the top of the mountain. I ran into some people that drove their classic cars to the park. What great rides! I had the best time. This place is awesome, think I will come down there today :)
It is a quick get away. It is exactly what is was created to be and for. We need to know when enough is enough for something.
This was our first time to Morrow Mountain. The bath houses are extremely clean and convenient. The park was great. Next time I will bring my canoe! Lots of wildlife to see - deer, racoons, etc. Sites were level and well spaced from one another. Rangers/hosts were really great as well. WE RODE OUR MOTORCYCLES, WE HAD A WONDERFUL TIME AND WILL GO BACK AGAIN SHORTLY. THE VIEW AND THE PARK WAS MORE THAN I EXPECTED. KEEP UP THE GOOD WORK. The picnic area/campground is completely covered with white dogwood trees.
Go when they are in bloom. Just about now.
Gents bring your girlfriends. A pleasant
and romantic place.
This is the nicest park my wife and I visit in North Carolina, we have been coming here for many years and plan on continuing our visits here. The Rangers are really nice and helpful when needed. Camping, hiking, fishing, swimming, boating, picknicing anything you want to do. This is GREAT!!!! We traveled 500 miles to camp here and had the best time! A beautiful park! Nature at its best! The rangers and staff were outstanding! Everything we expected and more! My first visit to Morrow Mtn State Park was when I was six. I have continued to enjoy its splendor since 1958. I have camped there in everthing from a lean-to to a motorhome. We have camped literally around the world, but Morrow Mtn remains on the top of our favorites list. You will not be disappointed.
Any camping/nature area can have a bad day or season. Morrow Mountain has weathered many storms over the years but always bounces back to provide a wonderful experience. Save me a site ! We love this place. We have been coming here for 25 years. It is very relaxing. You can sit at your campsite and watch the deer. Wake up to the crows. There are fun things to do. They have great hiking trails, swimming, canoeing and fishing. The staff is very friendly and ride by frequently to make sure everthing is okay. A fun place to be. We love to come here and look at the deer they are so tame, it is a wonderful place to visit and enjoy a picnic. i love this place i remeber going there as a kid camping wtih my parents. now later own down the road many yrs after the last time went there camping with my father before he died i now take my kids there and share the memories and trails and all that it has to offer . this place is has an amazing scenry lots of trails boating access fishing camping coneing rentals and alot more. its good old fashion out door fun where nature is been preserved We have camped here many times. Great hiking trails, pool, great fishing. The Uwharrie River runs into the Pee Dee right across from the parks boat ramp. Nice place to canoe or kayak. The Badin dam is nearby too. We travel about 70 miles to get there, so I wish they reserved sites in advance. Nice hot showers and clean bathrooms......
sorry to say but this park needs a lot of work done to it. At one time this park was beautiful. I dont think they have kept it up as good as they could have. We have visited several state parks and know they could clean up better they have this one. It has a lot to ofter. Just Clean It Up A beautiful park. All sorts of great recreation. Close to shopping and restaurants. Also,FYI,a number of campsites now have electricity. A great family place! This place is wonderful. You have a choice of nature watching, hiking, horse back riding and many more actives. This state park is beyond beautiful.This park is a must see to familys, couples, or anyone.
