"We had such a great time during our stay at this property! Our group consisted of three families coming together with kids of multiple ages. Everyone slept comfortably and there were plenty of beds for all! The kids enjoyed running around the grounds. They loved looking at the horses in the morning, playing on the zip line and taking dips in the hot tub in the evenings! This place is perfectly located within the town of Kernville. Thank you again for all of the fun!"

"The room was lovely -spacious, clean, nice decor, comfortable beds. The host was responsive and helpful. The location is quiet, nestled in a beautiful mountain setting in the Sierras. The lady who works at the General Store was very helpful in letting is use her phone when we learned Verizon does not have service up there. The lodge, which is a separate building from the rooms and is closed, is a marvelous piece of mountain architecture that offers beautiful grounds and a Frederick Remington...

Quiet Mind Lodge Retreat & Spa Sequoias

10/10 Excellent

"After deliberating for a little while between giving this place a 6/10 and a 10/10, I settled on 10. I have never had so many opinions about a place before or written such a long review! But let me begin: The place seems like it attracts two kinds of people. People who are just passing through and need a place to stay for a night (which is who I’d strongly recommend the place to and why I gave it a 10/10, and those looking for what it claims to be - a wellness center/spa. As a simple no-frills lodge, it’s wonderful. Rooms are clean enough, cozy, right on the way to the Sequoias. The staff, as I will touch on, are an absolute pleasure and go above and beyond to help. We’ve paid more for far less cozy places. As a place that claims to have various amenities, it’s an abject failure and frankly, deceitful. This is absolutely no fault of any of the staff. They are clearly overworked, overwhelmed, and I would assume underpaid. For instance, one employee doing housekeeping, is also on yard work, while also doing evening check-ins, while also making dinner for everyone staying there. How on earth is that supposed to work?! Of course things will slip through the cracks when they’re all pushed that far. As someone who is pursuing a doctorate in Buddhist Studies, this place was especially disappointing due to its potential as a genuine place for people to relax and get a tiny dose of spirituality. Unfortunately, the “library” is a shelf of 15 random pseudo-spiritual books. Instead o"

Kern Riverfront Lodge

10/10 Excellent

"Great place to stay in Kernville. I had the pleasure of seeing two of their little cabins as my trip was extended. Staff were very helpful in booking another night for me, although I did have to move as the cabin I was in was booked out the night I was adding. The furnishings are nice, and the bedding has recently been refreshed. The cabin-style rooms are well equipped with kitchens and sitting rooms, and some even have patios. The location is great; it is within walking distance from Riverside Park, the Kern River, and lots of shops and restaurants. Parking is tight, and it can be difficult to find parking since it is tucked away behind the building. Also, if you book through Expedia, you may receive inaccurate keypad instructions. My phone number wasn't working, so I had to call the after-hours line to figure out how to get into my room the first night. This was just a minor inconvenience, however, and I was in my room in a few minutes. Also not an issue if you arrive during the day. I've started to recommend the Riverfront Lodge to others."

Riverfront 2BR w/ Saline Hot Tub, Private Beach & Walkable Kernville

10/10 Excellent

"We are so happy we found this gem of a rental in Kernville on the river, it was worth every dollar! The view of the river from the windows and the outdoor area were absolutely stunning! The cleanliness and decor made it very comfortable. We will definitely rent here again. "
