Booked a last minute stay here for my birthday on New Years and enjoyed my stay. Directions and getting inside was very easy. The scenery is beautiful and it's so very peaceful here as well. My pup loved it here as well and everyone that we met in town were very nice too. I would absolutely come back here in the future!

Juniper Point Cottage Waterfront

4.95 out of 5 average rating, 148 reviews1 week ago

I spent 3 1/2 days in the Cottage and was lucky enough to have no one else booked at the same time as me so I had complete release from everyday life which is exactly what I wanted to do as well as fish. As soon as I got on the dirt road to the cottage, I knew it was going to be amazing! Deborah and her husband are the nicest people. I was greeted and given a tour of the compound and was left to do my thing. I brought my boat and Bob was kind enough to bring it to the waters edge so I could easily launch every day. The cottage is super cute and cozy and has an amazing view of that lake. I loved eating my dinner and being able to see the water from the table. Bed was comfy and bathroom was big. As for the fishing, It was incredible!! First day was rough due to winds but after that, I lost count of how many fish I caught. I brought enough supplies so that I didn't need to go into town except for fishing stuff and 1 night out to eat. HIGHLY RECOMMENDED if you plan to visit Lake Isabela!

Cozy Retreat-Mountainside-Near Hotsprings-King Bed

4.92 out of 5 average rating, 13 reviews1 month ago

Cindy was so nice and quick to respond! Even before we checked the neighbor came out to great us with his 3 dogs who were very friendly. The house was small but cozy. Something to note: the property is not gated at all so unfortunately it felt a little unsafe with a door in the bedroom leading outside and also no where for our pup to run around (which is definitely on us for not checking this before hand). Hot water does run out quickly so definitely be mindful of who showers when/when dishes are done/etc. The cherry on top for us was our last night visiting the dive bar down the road called Fubar. What a blast! Small town charm, drinks, goggles, bottle cap guns and chatty folks. What a good time! Overall, we enjoyed our stay, everyone and everything ended up being just what we needed. Side note:Don’t visit the hot springs unless you don’t mind naked hippies and homeless bathing next to you 🫠

MODERN RUSTIC CABIN HIDEAWAY

4.94 out of 5 average rating, 174 reviews2 months ago

This was such an incredible stay. We went for a quiet retreat with mix of recreation, and Johnny's place worked perfectly. The house itself is perfect for a couple, snuggly couch and comfy bed/linens. Having the Washer/Dryer after going out for a day of hiking and swimming was perfect. The host provided everything we could think of and more in the kitchen and throughout the home. The place is close to the main road so it's easy to get to Lake Isabella and the little town nearby. There was an enclosed backyard for our dog to play in, too! There's a friendly dog that guards the neighborhood that came to greet us one morning, he was very sweet and independent, and got along with our dog great. The decor was on theme and minimal, just perfect. Overall a 10/10 stay, we were so happy and relaxed our whole time there.

Spirit Walk is an absolutely beautiful and sacred land. We were blown away by the surrounding, the accommodations made available, our host’s good vibes, and by our fellow campers, who were very friendly and added to the joy and peace we felt throughout our trip. If I could, I would rate this listing 10 out of 10 stars.

We are already planning our next visit!! I can’t rave about this place enough. The views were unbeatable, and there was so much do to! Johnny was very helpful and had so many recommendations. The lake is within walking distance, it’s also very close to grocery stores and restaurants. The back yard and front yard are both fenced in and my dog was so excited to be included. We saw lots of wildlife! I can’t recommend this place enough!! We will definitely be coming back!

Private Group Camping at Spirit Walk

4.33 out of 5 average rating, 3 reviews70 months ago

THIS PLACE IS AN AMAZING FIND. A group of us were looking to go camping/rafting on the Kern River over the 4th of July weekend but every campsite was booked. Desperately I checked AirBnB and came across this listing for a private campground and of course was hesitant but it turned out to be literally my favorite camping spot ever. John was incredibly hospitable, showed us around, helped us get firewood, stopped by and chatted and hung out and made sure we were all doing good! He's built the place from the ground up so everything is new and clean. The facilities are super nice, there's a whole dining area with a new grill as well as a sink, bear box, misc cooking items you might need. There's a shower that's way nicer than the ones at the campgrounds, a campfire with firewood, all the water is drinkable spring water, but the BEST PART is the private creek that runs through the property. There's multiple little pools in the creek you can swim in and hang out in and we pitched a hammock over the creek - most relaxing thing ever. Was super pleased with this experience and would definitely recommend, it's much much better than the campsites in the surrounding area. Thanks for everything John!!
