| | at Tom Johnson Camping Center Rally Park; there is a delightful hiking trail close by called the Bald Mountain Trail. There's just no way someone can get bored here at Morgan Lake. Morgan Lake is a glorious site to visit for more than one day, Buck Creek Campgrounds is a glorious site to camp nearby, and a lake close by is Yancey Pond. And that's not all the things to do here in the Blue Ridge Mountains. The top of Bald Mountain is easily distinguished | |

from Morgan Lake, and Lake Tahoma is a nearby lake that you could stop at. You don’t have to go far from Morgan Lake to distinguish the water at Morgan Dam, and a perfect nearby hotel is Comfort Inn Marion. This lake is so wonderful.
Nix Creek is a splendid local stream, and Catawba River is a splendid whitewater spot close by. Just can't get enough of the Blue Ridge Mountains. After a long day outdoors Days Inn Marion is a tremendous spot to spend a night
or two, and if you don’t have a problem getting dripping wet, you can always go whitewater paddling on Catawba River - North Fork.
