Camp Okihi
13227 Round Mountain Rd, Bakersfield, CA
Okihi is a fourteen-acre private nature retreat along the Kern River outside Bakersfield, run as a small outdoor-hospitality operation rather than a park or club. The setting is rustic and quiet, with river frontage, wildlife such as owls and coyotes audible after dark, marked trails across the property, and designated fire pit areas for guests staying overnight.
Unlike most of the youth-organization camps clustered under similar names in this category, Okihi takes individual reservations from the traveling public through Hipcamp and Airbnb rather than requiring membership in any club or organization. It also hosts small private gatherings such as weddings and birthday parties. Quiet hours run from 10pm to 7am to protect nocturnal wildlife, and the property sits about twenty minutes from downtown Bakersfield.
