Bakersfield RV Park and Resort – bring your motorhome and enjoy!

They have long pull through sites that are extra wide. Plus it's surrounded but a 40 acre orange grove.

These all look like some nice parks. We haven't stayed anywhere in Bakersfield California but if we plan on it we will check one of these places out. Clint let us know which park you end up staying at.

Hey Sean that is the one that I recommended. We stayed there a couple of years ago and had a great time but we were only there overnight.....................................Over night is enough for Bakersfield........sorry if I offended anyone but ...........

Steve no offense taken. Not much in Bakersfield for me. I think for most it's just a stop over for one night. Correct me if I'm wrong, if you have reason why it's a great place tell us.

That's what I meant, not much there for us, I'd much rather be where I was or where I am going.
The only reason I recommended the place was that it was easy in and out with a restaurant with decent food on site.
