Best RV Parks & Resorts near Bakersfield, CA

Beautiful well kept campground. We tent camped and our site was close to the rv hook up sites. The rv sites have two different sizes and hookups. Tent sites had access to running water. We were located close to the creek and the bathrooms with showers. The walk to the water was a bit far but fun once you’re out there. The current wasn’t too strong so the kids were able to enjoy themselves in the water. Overall we had a blast.

rv camped. but could’ve tent camped in our spot, closer to the water. sites are HUGE! rv hookups lots of trees. water has enough pools to chill in. short walk upstream, gives you option for rafting back down to your camp. very enjoyable couple of days. oh! and super close , for a run into Sequoia for the day ( we did that!) we also reserved our spots, so our whole caravan of rvs would be together!

I’ve been coming here since I was a kid, not much has changed except the water level.. and nicer restrooms!

we tent camped by the river ( other options include by a brook ) and had plenty of space and trees. Full rv hookups and rv camping available on the top tier of the campground. Be careful of thievin raccoons!

Close to Riverkern , cell service and supplies

We usually stay at RV parks as a last resort, preferring state parks and the like.

That being said, this is the best RV park style site I have stayed at. Sites were generous size, facilities and grounds clean, staff friendly, and it was quiet.

The pick your own oranges was a fun touch and the security and surrounded by orange groves made it feel further from the city than it is.

If you go South on 99 to the big farm store, try the Okie Pies - good stuff!

And their is a local fruit market just west down Edison and a short turn to the north - just follow the signs.

Juiciest oranges I have ever had!

We only spent one night at this Campground but it was amazing. There are orange trees on everyone's site and they even provide you with the tools to pick oranges! The kids loved it :-). The facilities are clean the showers are warm and they even have an exercise room. The sites are spacious and have 50 30 hook up all full hook up all pull through.

Excellent family spot. Beautiful well kept grounds. Clean showers and bathrooms. Polite guests. Respectable to after hour policies. Ground keepers make sure everyone is happy. Full hook up sites make it easy. Shaded tent sites make it comfortable. Camp store make it convenient. Walking distance to town and store. Kern river Brewing company is the family favorite. Pizza Barn delivers to you while riverside.

This Campground is not near the river or the lake water. It does have a pool though!  LOL. 

We were just glad we brought a vehicle so we could leave to explore the river and sequoia trees!  

We did have shade and full hook up. There’s a water feature that sprays water in the air and a playground.  There was a store and laundry I think!  We really didn’t spend much time there. 

I’ll never go back there only because I prefer to be on water. 

The photos are not from the campground but these shots are some of what you can see in the area.

Bakersfield RV park just off Hwy 99. My home town, Born and raised, so I've stayed here a few times returning. Nice park adjacent to a great bike trail of 50+ miles. The river is not always running as in some of the pictures. Gravel pads concrete patios surrounded by grass. Daily weekly monthly rates, and have used all of them.

Mountain Valley RV park in Tehachapi, Ca is a nice mid-way stop between Las Vegas and the Bay area. We stayed here when we discovered our trailer was a bit too large to get into Tehachapi Mt State Park Campground. (Although this RV park isn’t that far from the state park where you could drive and do some day hikes.) Although Mt Valley RV Park is probably on few peoples list as a destination spot, my husband and I would consider coming back for the sheer peacefulness of the place. There is something embracing about the valley location at about 4000 ft elevation- with views of the surrounding hills, minimal road noise, mature trees, space between sites and lovely song birds the 3rd week of April when we were there. Not to mention, the gliders in the sky will mesmerize you since it’s located adjacent to a glider strip. Due to Covid the laundry and external restrooms were closed, and tent camping, which is normally accepted, was canceled for the time being. It’s definitely a place to consider if you’re passing through or plan to stay in Tehachapi ,CA.

Orange trees in between each space . Fruit and nut stand at back end of rv park through gate . Stayed this year and last year . You can pick free oranges . Nice quiet campground . Well cared for rv park .

Nice RV park with level pads, a restaurant, and a pool. Also across the street from camping world. Only con is parking is on DG rather than cement and in the morning it is muddy. Paid $49.50

Stayed here a single night on my way through the Bakersfield area. This RV park has everything you’re going to need and nothing more. An overwhelming majority of the spaces are for monthly residents, and you can tell most of the campers there are seasoned veterans. Right now the office is closed, I believe due to Covid, so you just fill out a form and drop it in a mail slot then pick out one of the sites. The area is quiet enough, but you can definitely hear the soft whir of cars on the highway close by. Camp seems dog friendly with a couple of very small fenced in grassy patches for pets to relieve themselves. There really isn’t much in the area in the way of markets or grocery stores.

Organize clean full service RV park. Nice staff, large showers, clean bathrooms, lots of space.

Large sites, semi private with orange trees, pool, clubhouse, laundry, dog areas and VERY clean. One of the best RV places we have stayed. I would give it a 5 except for some minor highway noise and the occasional train that blows its horn. So I give it a 4.5

This was a sweet little quiet RV park. We spent the night on a longer trip and were pleasantly surprised. The sites had water and electrical. There was a large clean bathroom and 24hr laundry room. There are mountain views and we saw a lovely sunset across the airfield. In the morning we walked over to the Raven's Nest for breakfast and watched the gliders take off starting around 9am. I also recommend Red House BBQ a few miles up the road if you are looking for lunch or dinner

This was a one night stay for us to break up the trip from South to North CA. We picked it because of the location and found it a nice little place to pull off HWY 99. 

Basically the owners have removed some of the orange trees and replaced them with RV spots… a great idea! It was truly a nice set up in the orange grove (unfortunately, everyone seems to know about it and within 3 hours our 'all alone site in the corner' was part of a large pack of RV'ers!)… oh well! 

Regardless, we did have an end site with a view of the grove. We have full service and level site that did not require unhooking or adjustments. The WiFi was great. The service was welcoming. We really didn't hear the highway or the road noise until dawn when everyone was waking up; so no big issue as we were needing to get going anyways. 

We didn't pay the extra$20 to reserve our spot(a little extreme), but we are thankful the system did not move us.
