Our review on Campground Reviews:
Excellent stop in Bakersfield
This was our second stay here on the way through the area, and it’s still a pleasant stopover. There was more road and train noise than I remembered, however. It’s still a neat treat to park amongst the orange trees and enjoy the aroma of the blossoms. Our site was a nice, large pull-through long enough for our motorhome and tow vehicle. It was, however, very unlevel both side-to-side and front-to-back, and we couldn’t get completely level even with additional blocks. We camped at Orange Grove RV Park in a Motorhome.
