We wanted a place for our sons to learn how food was grown, hard work, and to appreciate nature. It felt like a miracle when our offer was accepted to buy it. We are learning so much and have more to learn but we can see how God has led us here and is sending lots of amazing people to help us overcome the obstacles and succeed! Thanks for being a part of our dream.

Splitrock Farm and Retreat started in January 2021 after a global search of a place to set roots, live off the land, and create an amazing place for recreation, relaxation, and rejuvenation.
Splitrock was part of a 160-acre avocado farm that prospered from 1970 to 2017, generating over 1million pounds of avocados per year until the previous owners switched off the water in 2017. Ben purchased 101 acres in 2021 with plans to harvest the dead avocado trees for firewood and replant with organic, sustainable crops such as grapes, citrus trees, and flowers.
Splitrock's attraction comes from its unique groves, magnificent granite boulders, and sweeping vistas. Mixed within the avocado groves are several ancient groves and solitary trees that include 150+ foot tall pines, hundreds of old oaks, and soaring palms. Freckled throughout the hillsides are thousands of humongous granite boulders, offering a prehistoric feel to the landscape. Above all, Splitrock offers unrivaled views. Over 40 miles of coastline includes views to Point Loma, the Carlsbad power station, and the Pendleton Hospital. To the northeast are views of near 11K foot snowy peaks of San Jacinto and San Gorgonio, with rolling hills of De Luz and Fallbrook in the foreground.

This little farm is being brought back to life! Once part of an 160 acre avocado farm now it is a 15 acre little slice of heaven purchased in 2019. Previously the farm had been let go and now our duty is to get it back in shape. We are making steady progress and fall in love with the land more everyday. Currently we are also planting about an acre of lavender which should be a beautiful backdrop come 2024. Time up here gives you a chance to unwind, unplug, and explore some remaining wildlife in southern California.

Your Canyon-View Escape in Del Mar
Park your RV or trailer and unwind at this peaceful Del Mar campsite, tucked along the San Dieguito Canyon. Wake up to open canyon views, then stroll just minutes to the beach, local restaurants, and everything this laid-back coastal town has to offer.
This is a simple, no-frills spot — no electrical, water, or sewer hookups — just a quiet place to park, soak in the ocean air, and enjoy Del Mar’s beaches and trails right outside your door. Perfect for travelers who want a convenient base with a touch of nature.
Just across from the entrance to your spot is the entrance to the Crest Canyon Trail Head. Don't forget to take a hike there before you head out and back on your way!
Please, absoluley NO FIRES or exterior propane grilling.
We recommend no trailers longer than 20 feet. We had a 27 ft Airstream towed in behind a Tacoma and it was very challenging for that guest to get in and out.

This little farm is being brought back to life! Once part of an 160 acre avocado farm now it is a 15 acre little slice of heaven purchased in 2019. Previously the farm had been let go and now our duty is to get it back in shape. We are making steady progress and fall in love with the land more everyday. Currently we are also planting about an acre of lavender which should be a beautiful backdrop come 2024. Time up here gives you a chance to unwind, unplug, and explore some remaining wildlife in southern California.
Come and join us!

This land has been a community gathering space for the Native's Ceremony and Healing Space for over a thousand years. Feast your eyes upon the Matates and traces of the people that once gathered here so long ago.Upon the mid 1800's we had a Settler named Nate Harrison find this to be the ideal space, and he set up homestead here, and lived an amazing full life. He was to become the first African American to aquire land here in San Diego County, and his homestead remains to this day; studied by archaeology students to this day.Sensitive habitat and magic lies within our gates, and we must approach the mountain as we would any sacred space; with RESPECT.We welcome you to enjoy Nate's land and inspire who you are deep inside your heart.

I highly recommend a stay here. I stayed 2 nights in my Sprinter van at this location. Kimberly was quick with messaging approval with directions. Access was very good as well as the directions to it. I found it to be a quiet place with no traffic which made for great nights sleep. Plan on adventure with the trail adjacent to the property tracking south to a beach location via a few neighborhoods with very low traffic roads.

The site was private and a great respite for crowded campgrounds. The views of the hilly
winding road neighborhood were beautiful at sunset. Kimberly was quick to respond and an attentive host. Although the private road had sharp curves, a slightly steep grade and single lane there was plenty of room on the site for camping.

My dog, husband and I really enjoyed our stay at Granite Gulch!! What a unique campground. Views were beautiful. Super private fire pit. Goats were very quiet at night too. Can’t wait to come back and check out the other spaces on Benjamins land as well. Also our air mattress pump died and the host was super quick to respond in providing options for renting bedding if we’d like. Highly recommend for a quick getaway even for a night it’s so worth it!

Absolutely stunning scenery — waking up to the sunrise and layered hills was unforgettable. Directions and mapping were very clear and well thought out, which made arrival stress-free. The staff were incredibly friendly and welcoming, even helping us select firewood, which was a really thoughtful touch.
That said, the temperature drops significantly at night and the wind can be strong, so proper preparation is important. One of the highlights was meeting the two large white farm dogs — they were gentle, friendly, and felt like the best natural guides around the property.
Overall, a peaceful and memorable stay. Would love to come back and experience this place in a different season.

Bernie was an attentive, convivial host. The RV sites were level and full hookups with nice foliage privacy inbetween. The farm was interesting and lively with naturally beatiful views and a peaceful quiet place at night. The only regret was we were not able to stay longer and enjoy more great conversation with Bernie.

This was a really nice getaway with amazing views! Vicki is awesome and so accommodating. She helps you find a good spot when you get there so if you want the most options, get in as close to check in as possible. It is off grid so make sure you’re prepared with gear cuz no electricity. I don’t know if this is normal, but temps changed drastically for us during the day. Dropped probably 30 degrees at night. We camped mid January and were in shorts in the day but would’ve frozen at night if we didn’t bring our own heaters. Cell service works but is a bit weak. Road up the mountain is narrow, bumpy, and sometimes steep. Just to keep in mind if bringing trailers. But great trip if you want beautiful Mountain View’s!

The friendly animals on the property. The camp sites were not butted up next to each other, so it was nice to have plenty of space apart.

Wow! Our family fell in love with this magical spot. It was exactly what we needed. The views, the animals, and the amazing stars are now a forever memory. My daughter made besties with the donkey that followed us for a hike.
Not to mention the owner Benjamin is great. My son threw a rock and broke a sprinkler and Benjamin was a class act in handling the situation. We will definitely be back.

We stayed one night camping at Split Rock Farm and Retreat and had such a lovely experience. I came with my seven-year-old and felt very safe the entire time, which was important to me. Waking up surrounded by goats was such a special moment my kid absolutely loved it and couldn’t stop smiling. The trails were peaceful and easy to enjoy, and the overall atmosphere felt calm and family-friendly. We’ll definitely be back again.

The Oak Grove Communal Campground is located in a bunch of really full trees that provide lots of shade. The ground is flat enough to set up a tent, and the individual fire pits are great! We chose to have 1 Bell tent set up for us when we arrived, and it was so helpful for that part of our group.
There are tons of fun walking trails/boulders to play on, so it was great for families.
The camp dogs are super friendly, and we loved having them join us.
Things I would note if it is someone’s first time here: 1) If you arrive after 7pm, there is no one onsite or via phone that you can reach for assistance. 2) coming in after dark is not advised by me, due to the fact that the roads on site are windy and hilly. There were parts where I needed 4-wheel drive to get around (though not specifically at the oak grove spot).
3) the goats absolutely roam around and will come directly into your campsite. We didn’t mind it, but if you don’t like that idea, it’s something to keep in mind.

First things first, the drive up is not what people think. The road up is easy even with a 2WD vehicle. My friends Mazda 3 made it up easily so do not worry about making it to the campsite. The view from the site is amazing and the area is very quiet. The host Vicki is an amazing person and is always willing to share info about the property and its history. Overall the spot is great and would definitely recommend this site to friends and family! Also Solo (the dog) comes to your campsite to make sure everything is in order (He goes for snacks and he’s very friendly).

It was the second time my son and I camped here, and it did not disappoint! The property is quite big, the views are gorgeous especially at night. The hosts are amazing and accommodating… and I can’t say enough good things about the location. We plan to make it our annual tradition. Thank you for everything!
