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.

This was the perfect place for us on this trip. Simple and well maintained tent site with a brand new and clean outhouse. We didn't use it a lot made a great base camp. Will stay here again.

Great spot! Ross was really kind and stopped by to check in on us and say hello shortly after we arrived. The showers were AWESOME after a hot day in the park. Overall, it was a great find and I would definitely stay again.

A safe area with other travelers. I happened to arrive on a bad weekend (4th of July weekend) so there were fireworks until pretty late. But aside from that it was nice.

This was a great stop for the night. Close to the highway, in the middle of town, but also quiet and peaceful. We lucked out and had the place to ourselves. Our dog had the run of the place. 30 amp power and water worked with no problems.

A nice quiet place & a very helpful & resourceful host. All I heard were hawks, owls, and doves. Loved the outdoor shower and access to firewood.. City of Rocks was amazing!

Great place for stopping in for the night. We had the whole place to ourselves. More of these fairgrounds across the country should be doing this for travelers.

Great alternative to staying in the City of Rocks park itself. Close enough to commute into the park for activities while being kind to the pocket book. Also closer to the local swimming hole and pizza place. The hosts are thoughtful with their amenities including a hot shower, a clean outhouse, and garbage services (something the park quit offering).

Very quiet and clean!! Plenty of space as well. We hear the trains during daylight hours but by bedtime did not hear them. The host was extremely responsive to any questions with replies within minutes.

First time seeing The City of Rocks and I'm really glad to have stayed at this campground. There are places just down the road to pick up a few extra supplies and just in case you're wondering, I think there's pretty decent cell service in this area. I appreciate the thorough driving directions.

This was a great spot. The energy is vibrant, the grounds are kept, and it was so quiet. I needed some quiet and isolation for a few days and this was great, thank you!

Nice site very close to the City of Rocks entrance. The first night we were the only ones there and it was peaceful. City of Rocks is amazing we hiked all over. In the afternoon a large rain storm came through so we decided not to stay a second night, instead we headed to our next destination. We would stay again.
