Great experience. House had extra towels, beach towels, lawn chairs and kids toys for the lake. They had a little section for kids to play with toys and stuffies. They also had GREAT books selections. Make sure to check out their information binder located in living room with great food ideas and where to find wifi location. They also had a great grill and little play area next to it so if you’re grilling the kiddos can hang out there and you can be at ease while grilling.

Location was excellent but unfortunately it was raining the whole time we were there so we couldn’t really do any outdoor activities. The house was clean and had everything that we needed for our two day stay. I will go there again.

Excellent property in the most beautiful location ever. This actually exceeded our expectations. My husband went on a peaceful fishing trip with our family and friends, and every single person had the best time. There was an excessive amount of space, the river just steps away your own private oasis, and so close to town and the best fishing spots. We plan to come back and stay here everytime we visit Kern. The hosts were outstanding, the check-in process was so smooth, and the home is absolutely beautiful. Thank you so much!

This property was terrific for our family! Very kid friendly with lots of toys and activities for kids to do both inside and outside. Very comfortable and spacious. Just be aware that the popular Sequoia National Park areas like General Sherman are 3 to 4 hours away.

Family vacation

The location was awesome. The owner thought of everything when they built this home. The home had everything you would need for cooking knives pans cookie sheets coffee grinder. I would have liked more dishwasher pods( 2 were given for 4 days) and washing machine pods ( 2 pods for 4 days with 5 adults 2 kids2-4 years old. We will stay here again!!

Paradise on the Kern River

We had a three family gathering with 5 kids 1.5-17 and 6 adults. This place couldn’t have been more perfect for everyone. River beach access out back, and just so much to do and places to hangout around the home and property. This cabin far exceeded everyone’s expectations. The thoughtfulness of kitchen, toy and entertainment options and craftsman’s details throughout the property really made this stay special over 4 days. We would 100% book this cabin again.
