The Kern Lodge

Sequoia Lodge

10/10 Excellent

Riverview Lodge

10/10 Excellent

"Private beach on beautiful Kern River. Very friendly and casual vibe"

Barewood Inn and Suites

8/10 Good

"It was a lovely little town and the hotel was cute. The only thing is to pay close attention to the accommodations. We requested a stay for three but we ended up with two tiny beds. Never see that before. It was a rough night because two of us had to sleep on a tiny twin bed and we had no other option because we didn’t get to the hotel until after 11 pm. There was nobody there to check us in. We thought of putting the beds together but the beds were fixed against the wall. Two of us didn’t sleep, there were no other blankets or any other way to sleep on the floor except just the bare floor. Other than that it could have been a great experience."
