Pop your own Tent Site #1
Camping along the river in Bako!
Bakersfield has no idea what a gem exists here at Okihi! Just 20 minutes from downtown, you'd never know it as you feel transported to paradise. I've visited Okihi several times, and the vibes are absolutely perfect. The views of the river, sunrises, and sunsets are unforgettable - truly a treasure!
The property is teeming with life: goats, sheep, chickens, turkeys, horses, native gardens, and natural flora and fauna abound. We even spotted two bald eagles relaxing in a giant tree directly across the river. We had the pleasure of watching Katherine ride her horse, Basil, and feed the animals. It was such a treat to see her guide the sheep and goats from their temporary pasture to their nighttime enclosure, where they're watched over by the dutiful Sky, their guardian dog.

Glamping tent was exactly as expected. We loved it!

There are several accommodation options: bring your own tent, stay at the Riverview glampsite, or rent one of their trailers. We chose a trailer to celebrate New Year's Eve with friends. The outdoor setup is perfect with chairs, benches, and a fire pit. Inside, the trailer is adorably decorated and sleeps 5 comfortably. There's a queen bed, two single beds, and a pull-out couch - though it was just us two this time, we can't wait to bring our kids! The trailer features a kitchen table, full kitchen with microwave, stovetop, and
