Located in the eastern hills outside of San Diego, California, Sacred Rocks RV Park provides a safe harbor from the harsh, urban world, offering the tools and location for the exploration of the scenic surroundings while exploring your inner self all year round. Our entire 163 acres are so much more than the RV park — we want to show the bigger picture to everyone, thus the name change. Accessible retreat from stress – how beneficial it is to spend time in the quiet.  Sacred Rocks Reserve is off the beaten path, off the freeway, off the highway, out in the high country. The noises are more natural, and therefore, a bit surprising. The wind whispers through the ancient oaks. The chattering of many birds like woodpeckers, hawks, ravens and more, more, more. The howling of coyotes hunting. Peace of mind just happens.
