ABOUT PSR

Pine Springs Ranch (PSR) is a Christian Youth Camp and Retreat Center owned and operated by the Southeastern California Conference of Seventh-day Adventists. PSR is located on 641 acres near Mountain Center, CA, in the San Jacinto Mountains.  Our site was purchased in 1961, replacing a 16-acre facility in nearby Idyllwild. Originally built to be a ranch-style summer camp, it has grown into one of the largest and most modern camp and conference centers of its kind on the West Coast.

PSR has several buildings on site. The main Lodge contains two floors of hotel-like rooms and two meeting rooms on the bottom floor. There is also a large lobby and loft in the center of the Lodge. Next door to the Lodge is the camp's Cafeteria which is PSR's largest meeting location. The third indoor meeting location is the Multi-Purpose Building which is split into two meeting rooms. PSR has two sets of cabins, North and South Village. These cabins are used for Summer Camp and other retreats. The villages each have a central bathhouse. Other buildings on site include the Nature Center, pool, Town Hall, horse barn, and several staff homes. There are two outdoor meeting areas, Church Bowl and Campfire Bowl. 

Pine Springs Ranch strives to provide a safe and professional environment for those who come up the mountain. To ensure that the experiences that we provide are designed and performed in the best way possible with safety in the forefront, we subject ourselves to multiple tests and inspections by several accreditation agencies, along with mandatory inspections from local government agencies. We are a member camp of the Adventist Association of Camping Professionals. PSR is accredited by the American Camp Association.  Camps accredited by the American Camp Association meet over 300 standards for health, safety, staff, and program quality.
