Inyokern look up Fish Creek. Water is running great medow, some nice forest service roads to explore. BUT this is typically a camp site where off road motorcycles stay. It is off season for that now. During the week you should be fine, but come the weekend might be a different story. My experiences have been good with just some minor morning and late afternoon noise issues. From my door to campsite 3 hours and 10 mintues. Generlly an easy drive. Gas up at the Shell station off the 395 that is just before your left turn up 9 mile highway. PCT store should be open still. Access part of the PCT from Golden Trout seven miles below Fish Creek. Explore for camping at large areas. Look at campsites numbered in the twenties. I think 28 was the really good site.
