Escape to Tranquility – A Peaceful High Desert Retreat
Nestled on 2.5 acres of peaceful high-desert land, Casa Zen is a place to step away from the noise and pace of city life. Lovingly created and maintained by a husband-and-wife team, the property has been evolving over the past five years—and we continue to add new spaces and experiences as the land grows with us.
Surrounded by beautiful mountain and desert views, minimal traffic, open skies, and plenty of quiet, Casa Zen was created as an intentional space for slowing down and reconnecting with yourself and nature. Whether you want to journal, read, meditate, move your body, or simply sit in stillness, there are little spaces throughout the property to make your own.
Our amenities include a handmade outdoor stone cold shower surrounded by plants, a rustic outhouse restroom, and our newest addition—a private cedar sauna available for guests to enjoy.
Throughout the property, you’ll also find simple opportunities for movement and grounding. Hang or do pull-ups from our outdoor bar, walk the land barefoot, or challenge your balance on our circle of eight massive boulders—each weighing approximately 1,500 pounds and positioned close enough together to step from stone to stone at your own pace.
Much of what you see at Casa Zen has been built, planted, collected, or created by our own hands. The property continues to grow and change, so returning guests may discover something new each time they visit.
Come escape the city, breathe the high-desert air, enjoy the silence, and experience a slower and simpler pace of life.

This was originally a Girl Scout camp called Singing Pines back in the 30’s. You’ll see as you roam around some of the original buildings and structures. It hasn’t been in operation as a Girl Scout camp for over 30 years. The bigger building is an Airbnb for groups. They will also have access to the lake.
DIRECTIONS:
Take Exit for Angeles Crest Hwy (Hwy 2) from the 210
Go North, up the mountain for 29 miles
Turn left on Sulpher Springs Rd
Go about a mile and you will see a Singing Pines sign up on a hill on the right side.
There is a white gate which is usually open but if it's closed go ahead and open it.
Go down that driveway about a mile and turn left at the fork.
Follow that road down and around the lake staying to the right. Once you passed the lake there will be a little uphill and the location is on the left.
Learn more about this land:
The Skoolie is a converted short bus with two love seats that convert to an RV queen bed, sink, stove top, dinette, and over head lights. Outside is a private meadow with a short walk to a small lake. You can bring your fishing gear. It's stocked with Bass and Bluegill. Outside the Skoolie is a picnic table, fire pit (firewood $10 a bundle) and a hammock. Up the hill, a very short walk is the private campground toilet facility. This is not shared with anyone else.
No cell phone reception no linens bring a sleeping bag or warm blankets. You can charge your phone in the Skoolie for a sunrise alarm or just to take pictures.

Cold Creek is a unique 112-acre property in the San Bernardino National Forest. Because of its location in a 3,200 foot elevation, it's colder than the Southern California deserts and warmer than the cold mountains above us. Our temperatures rarely exceed 90F and rarely drop below 40F. We have plenty sun and about two to three days of snow every winter. A year-around creek keeps everything green and fresh around the year. We are the second owners since 1913, and operate a small organic orchard on the property. We are most famous for our honey, peaches and figs, but also grow apples, pears, persimmon, blackberries, greens, bay leaf, white sage and more.For years , we were WWOOF hosts (look it up ;-) and resisted opening up Cold Creek to traffic associated with daily camping arrivals, but we finally found the perfect spots for visitors to park their RVs, spend a quiet night and visit the orchard by foot.We are now excited by the prospect of focusing on expanding our micro-farming and inviting campers to look over our shoulders.

Chrissy & Ian love the desert for how quiet and open it feels. They bought this land to have a simple place to get away, spend time outside, and slow things down.
It started as a spot for friends and family to camp, cook, and hang out together without a lot of distractions. Nothing fancy, just space, fresh air, and a chance to unplug.
We hope you enjoy your time here!

My fiance and I stayed at Holocomb Valley for the weekend and this is our review. The site in it self (G4) was spacious and had plenty of shade. When driving up to the campground, Ed (host), called us to let us know where to go and what site we're at. As for the road to the site, that was an experience for sure! I drive a Honda Civic so if you're worried if your car can make it - it will, mine did! As we got to the site and finished setting up we noticed there were only portable toilets. The toilets were very clean and did not stink. Please be aware to ask ahead of time which site you are at since sites F, G, and H do not have flush toilet or showers. Additionally, the closest water spigot to our site was a 5 min walk. Overall it was a great camping spot - just next time I'd bring more water and a car that has 4WD.

This is a nicely decorated cabin that is cozy, yet spacious. It has two large upstairs bedrooms, though one is more of a loft in that it doesn’t have a door to close. Downstairs has the bathroom and basic kitchen and living area, along with a front and rear deck. It’s definitely not flashy or state of the art, but has more of a relaxing analog chill vibe. I really enjoyed staying here!

Ed’s communication was top notch! In addition to sending us a map, he called to check us in and make sure we didn’t have any questions. The ranch is at the site of an old Boy Scouts campground so there are a lot of cool things to see just by walking the grounds. The site was clean and ready for us when we arrived. It was beautiful and secluded. We will definitely be back!

Had a great time at Holcomb Valley Ranch and am definitely looking forward to another stay. Hopefully this time closer to the field with the horses!
The restrooms were well-maintained and cleaned regularly. The host was welcoming and responsive. The forested campsites sit on the edge of a wide open fenced field with horses, making for a great sunset view.
The road up is a bit bumpy and 95% dirt roads, but we saw some Teslas and even a few civics get up just fine. It's also a bit difficult to navigate through the campground at night since there aren't any paved roads. So I'd recommend getting up with daylight to spare or at least some really good flashlights to find your way around.
There was also a good amount of coyote activity, so I wouldn't recommend bringing any pets.
