"Another Settlement that time has forgotten is Scovern Hot Springs and the old Hot Springs House which burned in 1971. Located in the center of Hot Springs Valley, it was originally a stopping point for horse stages traveling between the railroad at Caliente and Old Kernville during the late 1800’s. Remnants of the local landmark built in 1866 could be seen from Lake Isabella Boulevard until the mid 1990’s when the original wood framing of the hot springs building finally fell down. Tall weeds grow along old 178 just past Kern Valley Plaza that obscure the springs. The entire property was fenced by a new owner in 2001 who turned the remaining property into a vineyard with plans on reopening a hot springs resort on the property sometime in the future."
