Welcome to The Bonita Blue, a uniquely designed home at the base of the foothills in Porterville, just under an hour's drive to both the Sequoia National Park main entrance and Sequoia National Forest and monuments. Centrally located, this is a great launch pad for all your adventures in California!  The newly updated home features three bedrooms, including a large primary suite with attached bathroom and huge TV.  All bedrooms have luxurious queen beds with fresh linens and storage space for clothes and belongings. A fully equipped kitchen is provided if you're in the mood to cook, but food delivery services such as DoorDash and Uber Eats are also available! The large driveway will fit 2 vehicles comfortable.  Bring your kayak or boat if you plan to enjoy Lake Success, just 15 minutes away!  During the warmer months you'll be spending all your time out in the backyard gathered around the gas fire pit, showing off your inner grill master at the BBQ, or relaxing in the Jacuzzi listening to the trickle of the waterfall pond. This is truly a gem in Porterville that you're sure to book again on your next trip to central California!

Getting Around

The home is walking distance to restaurants, coffee shops, and grocery shopping, though driving would be easier.   We are roughly an hour from two entrances of the Sequoia National Park.  4 wheel drive and tire chains are strongly encouraged during winter months, and may be required by California Highway Patrol if there's snow in the forecast if you're heading up to the parks or Camp Nelson area.
