The towns of Frazier Park, Lake of the Woods, Gorman, Lebec, Lockwood Valley, Cuddy Valley, Pinon Pines and Pine Mountain Club comprise Kern's mountain communities area - a favorite spot for active retirees. Woven through the Los Padres National Forest and bordered by the sprawling Tejon Ranch, this truly is the best of both worlds.
Imagine a place where the skies are clear, wildlife is abundant, the people are friendly and the pace is relaxed. Now add easy access to one of the state's major thoroughfares and proximity to Bakersfield or the Los Angeles basin. Life in the fast lane or on cruise control - you decide.
Recreational opportunities abound. Pine Mountain Club has one of the county's most scenic golf courses. Enjoy summer hiking and winter snow play at Mt. Pinos and Mt. Abel. The region is criss-crossed with fishing streams. Birders can find everything from the --- to the occasional California Condor here. The alpine camp atop Mt. Pinos is a favorite viewing spot for astronomy buffs.
And, because the area is a Hollywood favorite for both getaways and filming, it pays to keep your eyes peeled. You may see a movie star or two.
