Kern Riverfront Lodge

10/10 Excellent
"Very nice place to stay and so nice to walk across the street to the river. I would suggest to bring your own cutting board, a good knife, cookware, and spices if you like to cook. I was also glad I brought foil and containers for leftovers or for packing food to bring down to the river. I stayed in Room 4. Not sure how the other rooms are stocked. We also got down to the last square of toilet paper before we left so you may need to buy more and also paper towels. I probably could have requested more but we made it work over our 3 night stay."
