Kernville for short term rental
Does anyone have an STR in Kernville? I'm thinking of investing there and want to explore if it's possible to independently manage the property vs a management company. How is it finding trustworthy and reliable house cleaning and a maintenance person?

I have an STR in Bakersfield (and several more in OC and Los Angeles) that I just got started on and so far it is doing quite well. I have thought about doing Kernville or Lake Isabella or any of the surrounding towns as I visit Lake Isabella quite often. I have an awesome crew of people (cleaning crew, handyman, etc.) that are highly trustworthy and timely. I don't think you'll have any trouble finding help in either Kernville or Lake Isabella. If you need any recommendations, please feel free to contact me at your convenience.
P.S. I own an STR company that runs all of our STR's out of Long Beach and OC.
