About Splitrock Farm and Retreat
Far Away, Close to Home
Instagram page @splitrockfarmandretreat. Tag your photos #splitrockfarmandretreat #SplitrockFAR #farawayclosetohome
Or, contact the Camp Host through Hipcamp direct message.
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.

Long Beach, CA · 1 site
This 1968 Shasta Camper, located in a small garden within an urban neighborhood, sleeps up to four people, with additional space to set up tents if desired. It has a few amenities—some more rustic than others—including AC, refrigerator and freezer, stovetop (oven does not work), sinks, shower, internet, and coffee maker.
Located just ten minutes from the Port of Long Beach and the Port of San Pedro, it’s a great launch point for cruise-goers. With swimming beaches only twenty minutes away, it’s an ideal option for a low-cost vacation.
Help yourself to the freshest fruits, vegetables, and legumes from the garden, and watch the bees, butterflies, and grasshoppers happily pollinate, creating opportunities for new growth.
The property is securely locked, and the entrance is video-monitored for your safety (and ours).
It’s important to note that the camper (not a glamper) is vintage, and the convenience of the urban neighborhood can sometimes come with a variety of neighborhood sounds—though it can also be extremely quiet at times.
Due to the desert climate, ants may accompany the pollinators and enter the camper if food or beverages are left out. The garden is shared with our home, so some privacy may be compromised when we tend to it.
Street parking only. Pay attention to posted restriction signs and do not park in business or residential lots. The driveway can be made available at a cost of $10 per night (keep in mind the driveway is located at the front of the property and is a short walk away from the entrance to the camper).
Yard is fenced-in completely but if your pet is an escape artist there are some very small openings to be aware of when letting them off-leash.

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.

We tent camped in the Oak Grove and it was a beautiful experience. We were the only people there! It was our new puppy's first camping trip and both our dogs enjoyed the wide open space to run around in! The toilets were clean, and nearby. It was easy to find, and Benjamin sends detailed information before your stay. I would highly recommend this beautiful farm to my friends and family!

Really enjoyed camping at the communal campground. There are bathroom and outdoor shower facilities that are kept clean. I did not meet the owners but talked briefly to the lady who opened the camp store and she was really nice. The terrain is huge and I spent a few hours on the trails, and also met up with the lovely goats, alpaca, horse and donkey. It's a perfect spot for decompressing from city or town life. Only issue I encountered was perhaps the signage to figure out which way to drive to the campground, so I was happy to arrive during the day, but other than that, I would definitely return to try out a different accommodation.

We loved our stay! Frank was great. Was quiet and scenic and perfect! The goats were grazing along the mountain in the morning and were awesome to see, my toddler loved it! Felt very secluded and was very private. The porta potty was very clean and well maintained and a nice extra. Also loved you can add a late check out, that made our last morning very relaxed. My favorite place we’ve camped in awhile and we will definitely be back! Thanks to Frank, we loved it!

We had a great time at the hilltop hideout! Our small popup camper (10’) fit perfectly at the top level, though it was a tight fit! We didn’t use the lower level

Great piece of land! We had a very nice camping trip at Splitrock. We enjoyed the animal encounter, the large rocks for climbing, and lots of space between camp sites. The camp store had a perfect selection of supplies and treats.

We loved SoCal Campground. We stayed for 1 night with a tent. Spots are well mapped, though we didn't get full instructions on our spot number at first. Every spot has a water hose and a fire pit. Make sure to drive from the right side as we ended up coming through the bumpy road and good that we had a Jeep;) Overall highly recommend, great place for a short camping stay with kids and friends.
