Kennedy Bluebird: off-grid cabin near SF Kern River

Welcome to Kennedy Bluebird cabin — a peaceful, off-grid retreat in the heart of Kennedy Meadows.

This rustic 2-bedroom cabin features a cozy sleeping loft (stair-accessible), a full kitchen, hot shower, and a spacious lounge area. Outside, relax on the porch with stunning views of the Domelands Wilderness, grill dinner on the stove top, or unwind around the outdoor firepit. Sleeps up to 6 guests with 1 king, 1 queen, and a queen mattress in the loft.

The cabin borders the iconic Kennedy Meadows General Store and is just a 2-minute walk to the South Fork of the Kern River. Grumpy Bears Retreat is down the road, and the Pacific Crest Trail passes right nearby — making this the perfect basecamp for hikers, nature lovers, or anyone looking to escape into the quiet beauty of the Southern Sierras.

There’s even RV parking on-site. Come to rest, recharge, and soak in the mountains.

What's nearby

  • The largest living creature on earth, the General Sherman tree, is close to 2,200 years old.  Imagine; the tree was a mere seedling when King Solomn built his temple in Jerusalem, a sapling when Christ was born.  

The General generates enough wood each year to produce a 60-foot tall tree of average size.

Dozens of giant sequoia are neighbors to the General; the half-mile downhill trail into the Giant Forest offers access to the General and all the beautiful and hardy creatures.  Just be aware returning to the parking lot requires a gentle, uphill walk.  It was certainly worth the trip.
