Another great stay at The Kern Lodge. We stayed in the Eagles Landing room this time. The bed and pillows were very comfortable and the mini kitchen met all our needs. Michele, the manager, was friendly and helpful as always!😊

This is a quite neighborhood. Parking available right next to the room we stayed in. The room was clean and spacious. The only problem was the wifi. Although we had the right password we were not able to log in other than for a few seconds. This seems to be an ongoing problem since I have read other reviews describing the same issue. No one stays in the front office so if you need help you are on your own.

Price gouging for annual event in town
Posted 19 Feb 2024 on HotelsWith confirmed reservation we drove 200 miles to Kernville. At the front desk we were told to wait for the room to be clean and ready, and to come back at the check in time at 3 pm. To our shock, after having couple of drinks in town, we came back to hear that our room was sold out. They had "something else" for more than double the price, but even when I, out of desperation accepted it, I was told it's no longer available. I guess when there is annual event in town, the room goes to one who pays the most. No one cares that you are in the middle of nowhere with no bed to sleep since entire town was sold out due to event. Not quite shocked for the small bitten up motel policy, but am shocked that Hotels.com do the business with dishonest place like this.

Quaint Rustic Motel Stay
Posted 6 Feb 2024 on HotelsWanted a stay in a charming rustic motel and this one fit the bill. Check in was easy. Had a bit of issues though. It is a clean motel but whatever they used on the floor left a sticky residue when you walked on it and when we wiped the floor with a towel it was dirty. The fridge door wouldn't close because the freezer was frozen over so had to prop a chair against the door to keep it closed. Lastly there was no hot water for the shower, just luke warm. Don't know if they turned the temperature down due to the time of year but not good when in the need for a warm shower. The ceiling is in its original papered state but given some of its condition it would probably be best for it to be painted for an overall refreshed look (not sure if they are trying to maintain the original look). Price was good for the unit at this time of year and the unit is quite large. Nice large heater unit that took us a bit to figure out.

Never Again!
Posted 2 Feb 2024 on HotelsI had to wait over 30 minutes before anyone showed up at the front desk. That’s after calling and texting property management.
Then there was no heating control in the room so that was another 30 minutes of waiting. Management sucks!
