Been here 3 times over the years, keep coming back because it's a motel with an exceptional location. Granted it's somewhat isolated, the bed could still be more comfortable.

The staff and owners of the property made you feel welcome and part of the family.
Great location for access to the Kern river and its distance from Kernville provided the quietness to enjoy the natural beauty in the early morning hours.
Downside, The walls are thin and the night guests could be loud enjoying themselves around the outdoor grills, fire pit or horseshoe pit.

Great property for family! Loved the kitchenette and that there was a laundry room on site. Only one issue was we realized that we had slept on an upside down mattress after already being there for 3 nights out of our 5 night stay. Once we flipped it from the spring side, it was comfortable. Staff were friendly and everything was clean. The trail of 100 giants is about 45 mins away. Would stay here again!
