Relax at a cozy Lake Isabella cabin rental after rafting through Kern River Valley.
At the southern end of the Sierra Nevada mountain range, cabin campers can explore a merge of different ecosystems at Lake Isabella. Swim to cool off during hot summer days, or fish for bass, catfish, and trout, then after a day on the water, return to a tranquil lakeside cabin rental with amenities like a private deck and hot tub. In the area around Lake Isabella, campers can choose from rustic log cabins with wood-burning stoves and more modern vacation rentals equipped with air conditioning and full kitchens. For more adventure, take a hike among the towering trees in nearby Sequoia National Forest, or explore stunning desert vistas at Red Rock Canyon State Park, about an hour southeast of Lake Isabella. State park camping is only for tents and RVs, but there are mini cabin rentals nearby with showers, sinks, and queen beds. Consider visiting the area in spring when wildflowers are in bloom and whitewater rafting on the raging Kern River is at its peak.
