    "Bear Valley springs is the coolest place to reside, ever. People are terrific, wildlife run free and are respected, the mountain views leave me speechless, prices for Realestate are reasonable, Tehachapi is handy and provides access to extras, although with the amenities in BVS (other than to go to work) one never has to leave for recreation or necessities. We have the Country Market, Saloon, Country club dining, and Mulligan Room!"
