About the host
Hosted by Mary Tokita
I’m the host behind El Escondite, a peaceful hideaway in the Kern River Valley. I created this space because I truly enjoy sharing the beauty, quiet, and adventure of this area with travelers from everywhere. Whether you’re here to explore Sequoia National Park, spend time on Lake Isabella, or simply disconnect and breathe, my goal is to make your stay comfortable, relaxing, and memorable.
I care about the little details; cleanliness, clear communication, local recommendations, and making sure you feel welcome the moment you arrive. Guests often tell me they chose El Escondite because it feels like a retreat, tucked away but still close to everything. Hosting this space has become something I love, and I’m always here to help you get the most out of your visit.

Inside, the home blends Native-inspired décor with modern comfort; smart TVs, mini split A/C and heat, a cozy loft, and thoughtful touches throughout. Whether you’re stargazing, hiking, kayaking, or simply enjoying the quiet, this space gives you a one-of-a-kind experience you won’t find anywhere else.
