This land has been a community gathering space for the Native's Ceremony and Healing Space for over a thousand years. Feast your eyes upon the Matates and traces of the people that once gathered here so long ago. Upon the mid 1800's we had a Settler named Nate Harrison find this to be the ideal space, and he set up homestead here, and lived an amazing full life. He was to become the first African American to aquire land here in San Diego County, and his homestead remains to this day; studied by archaeology students to this day. Sensitive habitat and magic lies within our gates, and we must approach the mountain as we would any sacred space; with RESPECT. We welcome you to enjoy Nate's land and inspire who you are deep inside your heart.

Excellent campsite! Incredibly beautiful views, even at night! The staff was amazing and the Host was very helpful! There are tons of bugs but nothing some bug spray can’t fix!

Peaceful place with amazing views
We really enjoyed staying at Harrison Serenity Ranch. It's pretty spacious and green. We're far from other campers, which is the best. The view from the top is breathtaking, especially on sunset. Vicki was very nice, accommodating, and showed us around. The road was a little rough, but my sedan made it easily to the top in 20 minutes or so.

Vicki was very kind and greeted us warmly as we arrived. The site was perfect for star gazing and we were able to catch the meteor shower. The trek up the mountain was an adventure, and the bathrooms on site were clean and convenient. Great time
