The Retreat Juniper Tent/Van sites sit at the base of Green's Mountain nestled among the Junipers and Pinion pines. You will stay just outside the entrance to the City of Rocks National Reserve off the road that connects it to Castle Rocks State Park. Enjoy all the fun of camping under the stars with an amazing secluded location at the entrance to the City of Rocks. Enjoy Rock Climbing, Bouldering, Hiking, Biking, Fishing, and Hot Springs, all within a 5 minute drive! The Park is full all summer but you will have your own quiet base camp 2 minutes away.  Sit around the fire pit at night and gaze at the amazing star filled sky. Sites 8, 9, and 10 are all in the same private forested area and great for groups but still separated for plenty of privacy. Each site has a level tent pad, parking area for a car or van (car/van camping ok), and access to potable water, bathrooms, and garbage. We have now added a 15amp plug to each site to provide power for things like phone and laptop charging, air pump, medical devices, or other basics at no charge. Camper vans, or other vehicles that want to plug in to the power will need to pay an additional $5/day electric fee. No EV charging. Parking is allowed right at camp but no vehicles bigger than a van (20ft), and no trailers. No mosquitos here! PET FRIENDLY! This land has been in our family over 100 years. The Retreat has the closest campsites to the City of Rocks.

Site 8 - Juniper Tent/Van Sites
Quiet mountain spot
Beautiful spot in the mountains. Location felt private and safe and well-equipped with pit toilet restroom, picnic table and fire pit. Would definitely stay again!

We will be coming back!
Lovely spot! The junipers made it smell amazing and it was so close to everything! We added an extra person and our host was very accommodating. Perfect way to spend a trip exploring the area. The outhouses were kept clean and tidy and were some of the best toilets I’ve experienced.

Very convenient and quiet. Ross is super accomodating and understands what climbers are looking for. Huge step up from other rv camps and sheltered from wind.

I loved campsite 8. It was super cozy and private. More than enough room for the tent and a hammock. Outhouse was the best I've ever seen.
