RV camping near Bakersfield Country Club
Bakersfield Country Club sits on the east side of Bakersfield in California's southern San Joaquin Valley, with quick access to Highways 58, 178, and 99. RV travellers using this area as a base have several full-hookup parks within a short drive, plus public campgrounds along the Kern River corridor to the northeast and around Lake Isabella in the Sequoia National Forest.
Shady Haven RV Park and Bakersfield Travel Park are among the closer options on the east side of town. Orange Grove RV Park and Resort sits on the south side near Highway 99, a common stop for travellers moving between Los Angeles and the Sierra. Bakersfield River Run RV Park is near the Kern River on the west side of the city, while Bakersfield KOA provides a standard KOA-branded experience with pool and pet amenities. All operate year-round, which makes Bakersfield a flexible staging point for trips into Sequoia, Kings Canyon, and the southern Sierra Nevada.
Things to do near Bakersfield Country Club
The Kern River is the main outdoor draw, with whitewater rafting, fishing, and swimming holes northeast of town along Highway 178. Lake Isabella, about an hour east, offers boating, fishing, and shoreline camping. Sequoia National Forest starts northeast of town with hiking trails and mountain vistas, and the giant sequoia groves of Sequoia and Kings Canyon National Parks are reachable as a day trip or overnight loop.
In town, families can visit the Kern County Museum, the California Living Museum (CALM) zoo and botanical garden, and Buck Owens' Crystal Palace for live country music. Bakersfield is also known as the home of the Bakersfield sound, a country music style that emerged in the 1950s as a contrast to the Nashville sound. Murray Family Farms east of the city is a kid-friendly stop with seasonal produce and a play area.

When to visit Bakersfield
- spring
March - May
77° / 52°F 17 mmBest window for valley RV travel; wildflowers bloom
- summer
June - August
97° / 68°F 1 mmVery hot and dry; 50-amp A/C essential
- fall

79° / 55°F 10 mmWarm, dry, lighter crowds at valley parks
- winter
December - February
61° / 41°F 30 mmMild valley days; dense tule fog common on highways
The climate of Bakersfield is arid, with mild, relatively rainy winters and very hot, sunny summers. Spring, roughly March through May, is the most comfortable window for RV travel in the valley itself: daytime highs are warm but not extreme, wildflowers bloom in the surrounding foothills, and rainfall tapers off through May.
Summer in Bakersfield is hot and dry. Afternoon highs regularly reach the upper 90s Fahrenheit, and full hookups with reliable 50-amp service for air conditioning are essentially a requirement. Summer is, however, the prime season for higher-elevation camping in Sequoia, Kings Canyon, and around Lake Isabella, where temperatures are noticeably cooler.
Fall brings mild, dry weather and lighter crowds. Winter is generally mild in the valley, though tule fog can settle in for days at a time, reducing visibility on I-5 and Highway 99. Higher Sierra campgrounds close or operate with reduced services in winter, and the Generals Highway between the two national parks often closes during winter storms.

We used Matt’s RV for three nights outside of Sequoia National Park. Matt set it up before we arrived with mats laid out (a mat lined with twinkle lights) and AC on, communicating with us the entire day and trip for whatever we needed. He was extremely pleasant to interact with and we so enjoyed the cozy trailer! Felt new and clean (modern) and the bed was comfier than our own. Also - blackout blinds which was PERFECT for our little one taking naps throughout the day. The heat was brutal at our location and the AC was so helpful. Fresh towels and sheets were a plus as well. Very homey overall and felt so supported. We had a blast with our one year old exploring the campsite and national park and would rent from him again if the occasion were to arise!

Matthew’s trailer was pristine and worked great for our family with 2 small kids. Communicating with Matthew was easy and fast.

How to book campgrounds near Bakersfield
Private RV parks around Bakersfield, including Shady Haven RV Park, Bakersfield Travel Park, Orange Grove RV Park and Resort, Bakersfield River Run RV Park, and Bakersfield KOA, take reservations directly through their own websites or by phone. Most accept bookings months in advance, and a deposit is typically required for holiday weekends.
For public-land camping in Sequoia and Kings Canyon National Parks, developed campgrounds are booked through Recreation.gov on a one-month rolling window: reservations for a given month open at 7:00 AM Pacific on the 15th of the prior month. Potwisha and Azalea are the year-round campgrounds, switching to first-come, first-served during winter months. Sequoia National Forest and Lake Isabella area campgrounds are also booked through Recreation.gov.
What to expect at Bakersfield campgrounds
Expect a flat, urban-edge valley setting at the Bakersfield parks themselves, with paved interior roads, level pull-through and back-in sites, and easy big-rig access. Highway and rail noise is common at parks close to Highway 99 or I-5. Shade varies: some parks have mature trees, others are open and exposed, which matters in summer heat.
Full hookups with 30/50-amp service are standard at the private parks listed above. Cell coverage is strong in the city but drops quickly in the Kern Canyon and Sierra foothills. Bears are active in Sequoia, Kings Canyon, and the surrounding forest, so all food, trash, and scented items must be stored in the provided food-storage boxes when camping at elevation. RV length limits tighten on mountain roads, and vehicles over 22 feet are directed to enter the parks via Highway 180 rather than the narrower Highway 198 approach.

Frequently asked questions about campgrounds near Bakersfield Country Club, CA
How much does an RV rental in Bakersfield cost?
Renting an RV in Bakersfield is one of the more affordable ways to explore Kern County and the southern Sierra Nevada. On RVezy, motorhomes near Bakersfield average around $200 per night, while towable trailers run closer to $125 per night. Many hosts offer 10 to 20 percent weekly or monthly discounts, which makes a longer Bakersfield RV trip even better value. For a cheap RV rental in Bakersfield, target shoulder seasons (March to May or October to November) when nightly rates and campground fees both dip. Pro tip: filter by Instant Book and message a few hosts at once to compare add-ons like generators, bedding, and mileage packages.
rvezy.com/rv-search?SearchAddress=Bakersfield%2C%20CaliforniaDo I need a special license to rent an RV in Bakersfield, CA?
Good news for first-time renters: a regular California Class C driver's license is all you need for almost every RV rental in Bakersfield. Per the California DMV, a standard Class C license covers any housecar (motorhome) 40 feet or less, plus travel trailers and fifth wheels under 10,000 pounds GVWR. That covers the vast majority of Class B campervans, Class C motorhomes, and travel trailers listed on RVezy. You must be 25 or older to book, and RVezy verifies your ID securely through the platform. Visiting from abroad? Bring your home-country license plus an International Driving Permit and you are set to hit Highway 99.
dmv.ca.gov/portal/driver-education-and-safety/educational-materials/fast-facts/noncommercial-class-c-driver-license-ffdl-05/Is insurance included with my RV rental in Bakersfield?
Yes, every RVezy booking in Bakersfield comes with a renter protection plan and 24/7 roadside assistance built in, so you can head to the Grapevine or Lake Isabella with peace of mind. The protection plan covers eligible damage to the vehicle during your trip, and you choose your coverage level at checkout (not the host), so you can pick the tier that matches your comfort and budget. Pro tip: review the coverage tiers side-by-side at booking. The top tier usually costs only a few extra dollars per night and significantly lowers your out-of-pocket responsibility if something happens on the road.
help.rvezy.com/hc/en-us/articles/34008759079835-RVezy-renter-protection-plans-in-detailWhat if I need to cancel my Bakersfield RV trip?
Booking is low-risk. RVezy sets the cancellation policy for every rental (not the host), and it includes a full refund grace period after booking so you can lock in your dates with confidence. After the grace period, refund amounts depend on how far in advance you cancel. If plans shift due to unexpected events, contact RVezy support and they will walk you through your options. Pro tip: book early to secure the best Bakersfield motorhome rentals for spring wildflower season or fall Kern County Fair weekends, knowing you have a cushion if life happens.
help.rvezy.com/hc/en-us/articles/360037736674-Understanding-the-cancellation-policy-for-guestsCan I find a pet-friendly RV rental in Bakersfield, CA?
Absolutely, plenty of Bakersfield hosts welcome dogs and cats. Toggle the Pet-Friendly filter on RVezy to instantly see pet-approved listings, then message the host about any deposit, size, or breed preferences. Bakersfield is a great pup city: The Park at River Walk offers shaded paths along the Kern River, and the Kern River Parkway Trail is leash-friendly for many miles. Pro tip: pack a collapsible water bowl. Summer pavement in Bakersfield gets blistering hot, so walk dogs early in the morning or after sunset.
bakersfieldcity.us/308/Recreation-ParksCan the RV be delivered to me in Bakersfield?
Yes, RV delivery in Bakersfield is one of the most popular options on RVezy, especially for first-timers who would rather skip driving a big rig through downtown. Many local hosts will deliver the RV directly to your campground, vacation rental, or driveway, then set up the awning, hookups, and slide-outs and walk you through every system. Popular delivery destinations include Orange Grove RV Park, A Country RV Park, and campgrounds around Lake Isabella. Delivery fees depend on the RV size and distance. Pro tip: message hosts early and ask about a flat-rate delivery package to Sequoia National Park or Kernville. It often costs less than you would expect.
help.rvezy.com/hc/en-us/articles/360038076394-RV-deliveryHow far can I drive from Bakersfield, CA on a typical RV rental?

Sequoia National Park's Ash Mountain entrance is about 90 miles (under 2 hours) north, Yosemite Valley is around 220 miles, and Death Valley National Park sits roughly 250 miles east. Beach lovers can reach Pismo Beach in about 150 miles, while Los Angeles is roughly 110 miles south. Most RVezy hosts include a daily mileage allowance (often 100 to 150 miles per day), with extra miles available for a small per-mile fee.
