Kern River County Park

Bakersfield, California

Welcome to Kern River County Park outside of Bakersfield, California. The Hart Park Section of Kern River County Park is one of Kern County's oldest parks and was first dedicated in 1939 as Kern River Park but renamed in 1947 for County Supervisor John Hart.

Kern River Golf Course: This park's golf course is an 18-hole par 72, 6,458 yard course with great views of the river, the Greenhorn Mountains, and Lake Ming. Come out and try your luck.

Lake Ming: The park's Lake Ming is 104 acres in size and was named for county supervisor Floyd Ming in 1959.

CAUTION! There are parasites in Lake Ming's water so swimming is prohibited, water-skiing is risky, and fishing is catch and release only.
