Can't speak of Morro Bay as we have never camped there but Bakersfield has a number of places. I would agree that the Bakersfield RV Resort is nice but not much to look at. I would suggest River Run RV park. Request a site that backs up to the Kern River so you have a nice view (even though its currently dry). You will be within walking distance of Hungry Hunter, Black Angus, Costco, and hotels with their attractions. Just a short drive to downtown with a few nice antique shops. Also just across highway 99 is Buck Owen's Crystal Palace for dinner, dancing, and a couple of beverages.
