Lake Morena County Park

We stayed 2/17/24-2/22/24 at spot 77. Great, huge shade tree!!! Level. 

Clean bathrooms!! Flush toilets & 2 shower stalls.

The Rangers were kind & helpful!

Fire wood is $6/bundle that is purchased from the ranger station. Cash only.

Showers are pay showers. .50/4mins.

There must have been 100 wild turkeys that cruised thru the camp ground a few times. Pretty epic sight!! 

During this time of year, chilly nights but beautiful days. We did get rained on for a day but nothing horrible.

Oh, fires out by 11. They’re pretty strict about that time if the camp ground is busy but if it’s not, they leave you alone. I sat out after my kids went to bed til around midnight with my fire & it was heaven. Poured water on my fire & went to bed. Perfect evening!!

Nice campground. There were a lot of families with kids but you can strategically choose a campsite on an end/corner for more privacy. You’ll also want a site with some shade if there in spring/summer as it got hot during the day. Not all sites have shade. Music must be off by 10, and there is a ranger who comes around to make sure of it. Fires out by 11.

Campsites have a picnic table and fire ring. Water and electric hookups. Our site was a little overgrown but manageable.

Bathroom was big, nice and clean, though there is only 1 on the campsite loop. Another up at the ranger station.

Lake is a short car ride or long walk away. There is a nice hiking trail that takes you back to the dam. Beautiful lake views along the way. We saw 2 bald eagles.

Took a ride over to nearby Campo Creek Winery and met the lovely owner and chatted over a few glasses of wine.

Perfect for the families, both RVs and tents. We camped in the tent area, watch out for the ants. Very safe, park ranger checking the spots at night . The lake is not really walkable distance from the campsite. You either have to drive or bike to it. Overall all good experience, we will come back to visit.
