The Kern Lodge is cute, comfortable and a great value. It's an old family style lodge. The rooms are good sized and clean. Maybe not the best bed but all 5 of us slept just fine. Location is walkable to literally everything. I can't say enough nice things about the gentlemen who runs the place. We will be back!.

The hotel and the room was very cute and iconic. The manager was a great guy. The power was out in town when I got there. The manager ran a generator so that my room had air conditioning because I had my dog. The bed was rather uncomfortable and only 2 tiny pillows. There was only two thin tiny bath towels. And the shower drain was stopped up. So bring your own pillows and towels.

Unique property. Many things not working in the unit we were assigned (and apparently the room we actually booked hasn't been properly working for months per the front desk staff). Super informal checkin checkout process. Pluses: AC worked well, close to activities, and ample room to park. Was tolerable for a one night stay and early am departure

While it's not for everyone...

I much prefer a restored property to a modern one. This is my third stay at The Kern Lodge, and I will be back again.
