    "This is a very active 55+ community. It is in the rural area of Bakersfield close to the Lake Ming, the Kern River, Hart Memorial Park and Kern River Campground. It is a mile from the Mesa Marin Softball fields and a huge soccer park. It is a few miles to a store or restaurant but there are plans to build more stores out this way. It is gated and across from a golf club with another public one close by. New elementary and middle school nearby. 2 miles from the Zoo (CALM)"
