Awkward going to occupied room. Never notified about room change. However once reached by phone, folks were very helpful. Property was clean and well equipped. Unfortunately closeby park and river access under construction and not accessible which was disappointing

A cool place where people do seem to care about taking care of it. I would suggest they get an ice machine though.

Our family of 5 and our dog stayed here for 3 nights during the Borel Fire evacuation and felt right at home! They have the best location, right across from the Kern River and Riverside Park. There is an ice cream window a few doors down, a Shell gas station and gift shop right on the corner and it is right behind Cheryl's Diner and close to many other restaurants. The lodge was super homey feeling and comfortable. We had the upstairs suite, it was huge! Full size kitchen, 2 queen beds that were very comfy, a rollaway bed, futons and a couch in the living room, full size dining room table and counter seats as well, 2 bathrooms and the showers have amazing water pressure, huge porch on the front over looking the river, several beautiful antique furnture pieces, and so many other special touches! The manager and house keeper were friendly and welcoming but gave us our privacy and we didn't hear the guests downstairs at all. There is a cute courtyard in the back with tables and grills and even a beautiful apple tree and painted mural on the back cabin. Fast Wifi and lots of channels to watch also. We are looking forward to staying here again in the future and will recommend to all our friends and family :)

Overall a good experience.
When we walked in the front desk lady came out and said our room's 🚽 toilet is completely broken. So an hour later the gentleman came and installed a brand new one. The kitchen sink also has issues but fixed also. So many flies mosquitos and bugs, they actually had small a bug swaper on the frig. The beds sheets were very clean. Had a Full kitchen so we cooked our own dinner.
The outside of the building does not look at that but the inside was great.
Great location since the kern river is right across the street.

Nice location w/ good price. Across the street from the park/ river. Very clean. Décor is quaint; but, the cabinetry in the bedroom appears to be real wood (something rare in modern hotels). The proprietors, while not on site when I checked in after 5:00pm, seemed to be accessible when going through Expedia.

Wierd from the start, no front desk, has lit office sign but no one there when i knocked on door. Called the number on sign, woman answered with a different business name, i said I'm trying to check in to... she asked.my
name and then told me my room number and gives me code for lock, i got in and she says "have a good night" click... this place is run down and in disrepair. Fridge handle broken freezer handle missing with screws sticking out. Went to close curtains and the rod only had the center bracket holding it up left bracket missing and right bracket not screwed in. The flat screen didn't fit on stand so was leaning against curtain/ window and the wall, could have fallen easily. Small bathroom, tiny shower,(smaller than my 21' travel trailer shower) towel rack missing with old brackets still there. The towels were hanging on rack next to toilet where if you reached around from shower the toilet paper roll would get wet. Had a 3 dispenser unit in shower and was completely out of soap, had 1/4 shampoo and 3/4 conditioner. Easy to see soap was empty. Several dark hairs on wall next to bath window. I can't believe this place had a good rating and the reviews were mostly good. Did have a good location with view of river. Furnishings are 30/40 years old and the layout was difficult to get through room. Had to move bar stools to be able to walk from front door to bed and bath, wierd closet thing separating bed from tv couch bed area. Couch very uncomfortable, bed was ok.

Rooms were quaint in an old cabin style. Very clean.
We were on the bottom floor. The guests above us with a dog were very noisy late into the night. It sounded like the furniture was being moved and so forth. The first night without guest above us was peaceful.
