Christian overnight camp and retreat centre at 58000 Apple Canyon Rd in the San Jacinto Mountains near Mountain Center, operated by the Southeastern California Conference of Seventh-day Adventists and running since 1961. The 2026 season was published as age-banded week-long sessions — Discovery Camp for ages 7-10, Junior and Junior Exclusive for 9-12, Tween for 12-14 and Teen for 13-17 — alongside two Family Camp weeks, with a posted camper day running from a 9:00am breakfast through specialty classes, two afternoon activity rotations and field games to a lights-out that varies by age group. The camp states its aims as Christian mentoring from positive role models, time outdoors, new friendships and independent decision-making.
