Find space and stillness on 240 acres of oak-studded backcountry in Descanso. Stallion Oaks Ranch is a peaceful sanctuary tucked away in the foothills, offering a grounded escape for campers, hikers, and groups. Whether you're seeking a moment of reflection at our Peace Pole, exploring our winding trails, or using the Ranch as a basecamp for a rugged trek to the PCT, you’ll find a sacred environment designed for unplugging and renewal. ACCOMODATIONS FOR EVERY TRAVELER: RV Sites: We offer a selection of full-hookup sites (water, power, and sewer) and dry RV sites nestled among the oaks. Tent Camping: Plenty of spacious, traditional tent sites for those who want a true nature experience. Group Yurts: Our rustic, bunk-bed style yurts are perfect for youth groups, multi-family campouts, or retreats. Bathhouse: All guests have access to our bathhouse, featuring six flush toilets and six showers, providing comfort and convenience even in the heart of the backcountry. THE HEART OF THE RANCH: The Peace Pole & Labyrinth: Nestled in a quiet grove of oaks, our natural labyrinth is a place for moving meditation. At its center stands a custom-crafted Peace Pole featuring the prayer "May Peace Prevail on Earth" in over 30 languages—including the Kumeyaay language of the First Nations people who first occupied this land. Stone benches surround the pole for shaded reflection. The Barn: For large groups and special events, our historic "Barn" provides a 250-capacity meeting space with rustic charm and an enormous stone fireplace. (The Barn is reserved for group events and must be reserved directly through The Unity Center). Hiking & The PCT: Explore onsite trails or take the 2-mile primitive wilderness trail that connects the property to the Pacific Crest Trail (recommended for experienced hikers). The Seasonal Lake: Enjoy our natural basin that fills with winter rains—a serene spot for birdwatching that changes with the seasons. GOOD TO KNOW: A Sacred Space: Owned by The Unity Center, we ask all guests to respect the quiet and peace of the land. Unplugged: Cell service is limited. Seasonal Nature: Our lake and wildflower displays depend entirely on local rainfall. Fire Safety: Due to our location, we follow strict CalFire guidelines regarding campfires.

Escape from the hustle and bustle of the everyday world and immerse yourself in nature. Delight in starry nights rather than city lights. Reconnect with the deepest part of yourself and feed your soul at Stallion Oaks Ranch where people of all ages come together to recharge, relax and rebuild their lives. A truly unique experience!  At this time there are (20) main dedicated tent-sites, (2 of 5) 16-foot bunk-bed yurts, and (1 of 6) 24-foot bunk-bed yurts near the common areas,  available for camping spaces.  The 16-foot bunk-bed Yurts have (3) bunk beds in them, which can sleep up to six people. The 24-foot bunk-bed Yurts have (7) bunk beds in them, which can sleep up to fourteen people. No linens are provided for bunk-beds.   The numbered (1-12) tent sites have partial shade; the alphabetical (A-I) tent sites have no shade and are entirely in the sun.  There are no special set-up at the sites, only ground for pitching tents. There is one communal campground fire-ring that can be utilized by all onsite.  Fire usage will be allowed in this fire-ring only and must be approved by the site managers and local Fire Marshall, based on fire safety levels during camp-out periods. We cannot guarantee fire-ring use during your stay. Bring your own propane camp-stove (recommended) for cooking personal meals... and plenty of blankets and warm gear for evenings. Onsite, there are (3) more additional 30-foot open-space yurts and one large open space Barn-Lodge Meeting Hall.  Although, there is a swimming pool onsite, it is not available for rent during camping events.  All of these additional spaces are reserved for use during special events and must be rented directly through the owners of the property, The Unity Center - San Diego, at special event pricing and have special rental restrictions and terms.  Stallion Oaks Ranch is a privately owned and operated outdoor retreat venue, covering 243 acres which is backed up against the National Forest and is located in a fairly secluded mountain-residential area.  The site has multiple walking trails located on the property (including a trail-head to Pacific Crest Trail), a walk-around lake, peace-pole with full-size labyrinth under the oak trees, a man-made medicine wheel, and multiple meditation spots, along with a couple outdoor gazebos.  The property is located just 45 minutes from downtown San Diego and several beaches and just 15 minutes away from Viejas Casino and about 30-60 minutes away from other common tourist sites.
