I was unable to reserve a campsite for more than one day with the online tool due to a glitch in the system. I figured I could extend my stay by visiting the camp attendant but he told me it could only be done online. There is no internet there!!!! So, if you decide to stay an extra day, you cant unless you drive to a place with internet. (Which is no where close), I will not be back, the site is too remote to be stuck in the woods without a campsite and the local rangers/caregivers wont help you.

We absolutely loved this site. Our camp site was well set up and well designed. The tent pad was a generous size. The fire pit and grill grate was clean and solidly constructed. The full size picnic table was actually really comfortable. The bath house was clean and fully stocked, the shower was pleasant. Close to a nice place to fish and to swim. Would definitely book there again.

Pre-load your GPS before heading up the hill because signage is almost non-existent and the road is twisty and turny with lots of options to get lost. Once there, it is a nice park. Internet signal is strongest near the Host sites.

Nice & quiet the week we camped. Biking the Jackson River Scenic Trail was a blast.
Unfortunately the hiking trails near the campground & lake are very overgrown and not really useable.

We only stayed a single night at Morris Hill but would absolutely stay longer when we are in the area again. The site (#22) was spacious and beautiful and we were pleased with the generator hours allowed. The only concern we had was that the site was not flagged as being reserved the night we were there and we were unable to confirm there were no issues.

This campground used to be so nice. I've been camping here for over 30 years and was quite disappointed with the condition of the whole place from the dirty bathrooms and rotten picnic tables to the poison oak surrounding the campsite. Do better!
