Superior! Beautiful community & surroundings. The room was delightfully furnished with rustic mountain decor. But Iā€™m burying the lede. The staff was friendly and informative. The room was comfortable, blessedly quiet, and immaculately clean. Iā€™ve stayed at hotels at twice the price with fewer amenities and not nearly so spotlessly clean. And the staff recommendation for breakfast across the street was the cherry on top. Delicious! Iā€™d stay at the Sequoia Lodge again in a heartbeat.

Great Place To Stay
Sequoia Lodge is a great place to relax along the Kern River. The manager on site (Steve) was great and very helpful. The patio deck overlooking the river is awesome Definitely going to book this place again !. Also, it does not hurt to have the Kernville store across the street, never went into town once for food, drinks, etc.

Love the location. The motel was quite dated and worn. Couldnt even sit straight on the toilet as the shower door was so close. Shower head shot needles into my body! I mean, come on! How much does a decent, modern shower head cost? Very comfy bed! Door knob to the entrance of our room fell off at one point after entering. I am a retired handyman and noticed tons of little things that could be improved on for not much money. Not sure if the owners are hands on or not, but the place has been neglected for far too long!

You have done a good job preserving this property. I am an ex owner of a very old resort and as such i must comment on the cheapest towels and linens you supply. Why not offer the customer a choice. Pay for usable or go for cheapest. You will be suprisedat what they will choose.

Delightful stay on the river with access to the beach. The rooms are very small but very clean and adorable! There is a little general store across the street that serves delicious food in a little sit down area in the store. Definately would stay again.
