Our Review

We stayed at Morgan Hill RV Resort from February 24 thru March 2, 2020. It’s a very nice park. Fairly spacious RV sites. Big dog area with an obstacle course.

Restrooms throughout the park were extremely nice updated and clean. This park has no store. Safeway isn’t too far though for needed items or groceries. Lots of outdoor recreational activities. Volleyball, basketball, and shuffleboard to name a few.

Lots of open areas for throwing a football or other activities. Plenty of tent areas as well. The lounge isn’t the nicest we’ve seen at Thousand Trails but they are remodeling downstairs. We were told to expand the laundry room. The lounge has couches, a big-screen TV, and a piano. This park has a very friendly staff that we talked with a few times. They were happy to answer all of our questions.

My negatives are no sewer and the sites were dirt and could use a layer of gravel on them and the roads. When it rains here I’m guessing it’s a giant mud puddle. There are only about 5 full hook-up sites in the whole park, so they are hard to come by. They do have a honey wagon service available for $25.00.

On a side note. There was an RV parked in the middle of the road guessing it broke down for three days of our stay. It was not holding up the park but was an eyesore.

We would come back again if we were in the area. Would like to see what remodel of the lodge looks like.

Amenities

Morgan Hill RV Resort has all the amenities you’d want from a campground. The staff is very friendly and helpful with any questions you may have.

Famous views and fabulous vineyards are just two of the attractions that draw visitors to Morgan Hill RV Resort year after year. Surrounded by the rolling hills of the Santa Cruz Mountains, this RV campground in California is a majestic retreat for couples, families, and friends. With an unbeatable California location, this 66-acre campground is the perfect home base for touring the many popular attractions of the Central Coast. More than 20 wineries are conveniently located nearby.

Back at the resort, enjoy the relaxing scenery of Uvas Creek as the water winds its way through the campground. An Olympic-sized pool, playground, tennis courts, and a miniature golf course ensure a visit to Morgan Hill RV Camping in California is fun for everyone.

  • Restrooms/Showers

The restrooms and showers were some of the nicest we’ve seen since being on the road. They had been recently remodeled and were very up-to-date.

         

  • Laundry

The laundry room is in huge need of updates. One wall is a piece of plywood. Washer major leak all over the floor. Luckily there is a drain in the middle of the room. Washers and dryers work on Laundry Cards that can be purchased at the Welcome Center. Prices were 1.99 per wash and per dry although we heard prices were going up. The laundry room is open 8:00am-8:00pm. One thing we don’t like about having to buy cards for laundry is it seems like each campground uses a different system leaving you with a bunch of laundry cards with money on them but nowhere to use them until you go back to someplace you’ve already been.

  • Dog Park

Our dogs loved running and playing in the dog park. Plenty of room for them to sniff around and stretch their legs playing with other dogs. We love when the dog park has an obstacle course to work with the dogs on.

  • Lodge

The lounge isn’t the nicest we’ve seen at Thousand Trails but they are remodeling downstairs.

  • Pool/Spa

Morgan Hills RV Resort has a very large Olympic size pool with new lounge chairs and patio tables complete with umbrellas.

  • Mail/Package Service

We didn’t use mail or package service while at Morgan Hill RV Resort.

  • Sports, Recreation, and Playground Areas

Lots of outdoor recreational activities. Volleyball, basketball, and shuffleboard to name a few. Lots of open areas for throwing a football or other activities. Playground for the kids.

Things to see/do nearby

During our stay, our Jeep broke down and was in the shop for three days so that really limited us from what we got to see and do. We did manage to make a trip over to Monterey to enjoy a cup of clam chowder and have some fish and chips.
On another day we went to San Jose to marvel at the Winchester Mystery House.

Conclusion

Morgan Hill RV Resort is a great starting point for many adventures in the Northern California area. There is so much to see and do within a short drive of the campground. It’s a very nice and well-maintained campground with a staff of friendly and helpful employees willing to go the extra mile to ensure you have an enjoyable stay.
