Very nice area, somehow missed the town at the bottom of the hill. Cheryl’s restaurant has a great breakfast. Little shops and such are going on in town. Loved the Kern River running behind the lodge. I am sure I saw gold glittering in the rocks, but forgot my pan! Ha, Great little lodge and area! We were passing through a lot of beautiful scenery.

Good value for the price, slightly dated, overall the charm outweighs the somewhat aging facilities. Could use some extra blankets in the room.

Nice place and location

The location of the hotel was excellent. The staff was friendly and helpful The room was very clean and well decorated The king bed was very hard and pillows were too thin The shower was small and took some time to adjust the water temp Even with these deficiencies I would stay here again
