WHO WE ARE

Morgan Hill is California’s newest getaway spot! The city of 45,000 residents has the historic charm you’d expect from a small Northern California town and the sophisitcation of its Bay Area influence. Blend right in with the locals and enjoy the low-key, high-value culinary, wine, and outdoor adventures—without the pricetags or hassle of high visitation tourist spots. In Morgan Hill, you’ll find a buzzing downtown and hip, independent eateries, a bounty of scenic wineries and farms family-owned for generations, and a tranquil sporty vibe inspired by miles of rolling hills and athletic culture. Morgan Hill is a “chill” getaway you won’t need a week to recover from and a hidden gem that even well-traveled foodies, wine afficiandos, and outdoor enthusiasts are just discovering!

 

WHERE IS MORGAN HILL?

Morgan Hill is located in Northern California on Highway 101 between San Jose and Gilroy, south of the San Francisco Bay Area and Silicon Valley. This southern portion of Santa Clara Valley is where the tech-centered metropolis unfolds into open spaces and agricultural landscapes of the Central Coast. The heart of Morgan Hill lies on the narrow valley floor, just 4-miles wide. The foothills of the Santa Cruz Mountains to the west and the Diablo Range to the east offer an abundance of freshness and diversity in agriculture and outdoor experiences.
