White Water Hunting

We have found our home in Kernville. It is so cozy and warm after a cold day on the river it was a joy to walk across the street from Sierra South and be home that fast. Could not have been better.

The location was near the river.

I liked the river nearby. There were decent places to eat within walking distance. The place was clean with a kitchen. The next door neighbor likes his pot, but there’s nothing you can do about that.

Nice, no frills rental.

This rental is very clean. No frills but not sparse, it had just about everything we needed. Convenient location, easy to find and close enough to walk to most stores and attractions. The owner is super nice and helpful. Overall a very nice place and very affordable. The people in town are very friendly, too.
