Top Kernville Hotel Reviews

Private Loft Cottage, w/ bedroom, close to Kern River. Pet friendly. Sleeps 8

10/10 Excellent

"Perfect for our stay. Hope we can book again in the future."

The Kern Lodge

10/10 Excellent

"Kern Lodge is conveniently located near shopping, great local eateries like Kern River Brewing Co. and is right across the street from the local market and gas station. The staff there is friendly and very accommodating. The rooms are clean and well maintained. Our stay was very brief, but I would certainly return here again in the future. We were also delighted to see them decorating for Halloween!"

Piazza's Pine Cone Inn

10/10 Excellent

"This retro motel turned out to be a delightful experience for us. The owners, Josh and Roberta are fantastic hosts. The beds were the most comfortable ones we slept in during our entire 9 day roadtrip. Parking was super easy. Loved all the touches from the 1950's and later decades. One of the most fun things we did was attend a ukelele gathering the owners put on with the locals on Tuesday evenings. We also played pool one night. Wish the swimming pool was heated, but that's my only "complaint". I highly recommend you stay here to experience going back in time, yet with modern comforts and conveniences."

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

10/10 Excellent

"This riverfront property was a wonderful retreat. A lot of thought went into the layout, from the fire pit to the Jacuzzi and grill, giving it a cozy, at-home feel. The general store and local restaurants are just a short drive away, making it easy to grab anything you need or enjoy a meal out. We had a relaxing, comfortable stay!"

Create and adventure in the heart of Kernville.

10/10 Excellent

"The house was set up with lots of privacy, bedrooms and bath were in good locations. The kitchen had everything you needed to prepare meals. Plenty of games to play. There were hiking trails nearby and a park along the river. The only issue we had was the outdoor furniture on the back deck needs to be replaced. The air conditioner was incredible! Great view of the mountains from the deck. We did see some deer roaming the neighborhood, very friendly."
