In recent years, Lake Ming has become one of the Bakersfield’s favorite outdoor destinations. The lake used to be out in the boonies, but with the rapid expansion of Bakersfield over the last 20 years, Lake Ming is now right in town. One of the best ways to start your visit here is in a kayak, drinking in the beauty and getting to know the layout of the lake. If you love the outdoors and paddling in a hot climate, Lake Ming is the perfect getaway for you. Your days at Lake Ming will be filled with kayaking, sailing, fishing, picnicking, boating, and waterskiing. Located less than 10-miles east of Bakersfield, you’ll find the lake is as convenient as it is enjoyable. Be on the lookout for mule deer, raccoons, coyote, fox, and Golden and bald eagles interact within their natural habitat. After several years of severe drought, Lake Ming’s water level is currently very low, so boating and fishing are limited. Call before departing for lake closures.
The lake is planted with trout during the
fall for the season, and thrives with carp,
bass, and catfish during the summer. The
