Sequoia Lodge

This is such a cute place along the river. We stayed 2 nights and absolutely loved it. The staff were very friendly and provided us great recommendations in the area to visit. They have their own beach area that you can lounge on, a grill area that lights up in the night time. The rooms were very well kept and clean. The A/C worked phenomenally and the water was nice and hot for a shower. There is a store/cafe across the street that we went to for breakfast each morning. Would highly recommend this lodge!

I booked this place since it wasn't far from the Rodeo. The rodeo was cancelled and rescheduled for another date. I called and talked to the manager Gina and she was nice enough to change my dates of arrival for a one time courtesy. Unfortunately, the rodeo was cancelled in Kernville and rescheduled for another location. I figured I would loose the money might as well take my son on a fishing trip. When we arrived Gina was there to check us in. She is full of energy and super nice. Explained everything and made us feel so welcome. When we got in the room and turned on the light it was still so dark in the room, kitchen and bathroom. I thought there is no way I can do my makeup in here. I didn't bring a hand mirror to take outside to do it. I wondered if it was just this room. It's not, my friend checked in to another room on Saturday and I waited to see what she thought. First thing she said "it's so dark I can't see in here" so I guess all the rooms are like that. What I can see with my blind eyes in the very dim light the room seemed clean and beds were comfortable. If you are coming here to fish there are many places one being Riverside park that I would recommend. The water down by the lodge is full of fishing line left by others. We broke two lines and gave up after two hours. It is very beautiful just to relax down there so it was still enjoyed. There is a fish cleaning station at the lodge if you should catch some. At night Gina gets the fire going on the patio in the rear of lodge. There are chairs and a table if you want kick back. Quiet time is 8pm and pretty much everyone stuck to it on our visit. Make sure to get any supplies you may need in Kernville. Once you drive out here there isn't anyplace to get food or supplies. Looks like the store across the street was closed and for sale.

Staying at Sequoia Lodge was a lovely experience. If you're looking for somewhere, quaint and peaceful, this is definitely the place to stay. Jim Morrison helped us check in and he was friendly and funny. The room was very comfy and cozy, and they've been provided some dishes in case you wanted to use the grill on one of their beautiful patios overlooking the river. Sequoia lodge is about a six minute drive from the Kern Brewery so if you want go into town it's not a far drive. My fiancé and I were very happy with our stay and would definitely come back for our next visit to Kern.

Awesome little lodge! Cute and comfortable rooms, they did an amazing job of making our entire group feel at home! The little BBQ areas are great for hanging out with friends, there's direct river access and a convenient store/deli right across the street. Can't wait to come back.

Right next to the Kern river, you can literally walk down the back and have breakfast, lunch or dinner. There's a bench and large rocks to relax on or dip/swim in the water. The staff was friendly and the hotel room wasn't bad. Expected it to be a bit cleaner during this COVID pandemic. The dishes, coffee maker were not cleaned thoroughly and the shower did have black mold on the edges of it. It was convenient having a small grocery across the street for coffee in the morning and they do serve food. Note: Definitely head to Vons before coming here to stock up on food and necessities which is around 15-20mins down the mountain.One extremely odd moment, before we left we had the TV on a specific DirecTV channel. When we came back it was on a religious channel? SUPER SUPER WEIRD.......

I've been coming here for over 12 years. I love this place. I couldn't get enough of this place two weeks ago. So my friends and I rebooked it again. Kelly and Anthony are the best hosts. They keep this place tidy and no rowdy guests either. Always so peaceful. And thank you two for making sure we were well taken care of. We arrived late and Kelly kept and eye that we were still coming. She has our room set at a comfortable temperature and the lights on since it was getting dark out when we arrived.Thank you again. We will be back soon

Lovely lodge right next to the river. Clean room. Kind staff (including a friendly dog). Stayed here for a fishing trip for a few nights. Would happily return!

Robin and Jeremiah were amazing hosts, I kept bothering them for coffee and creamer since I like my coffee with both, and they were both sweet. Robin answered all of my questions which i felt bad because I would call her multiple times during the day lol had a great time at the lodge, it was very quiet and the sound of the river was very calming since I live in Los Angeles. The room was cute with the kitchenette, the walls are thin so you can hear your neighbor but it isn't much of a bother. Room comes with AC and Heater, it was really cold so we used the heater, no cooking is allowed inside the room but they have 4 gas grills and 2 charcoal grills plus a fireplace! We used the grills through out the whole stay. It seemed that my wife and I were the only ones using the grill since the other tenants were out and about. PLEASE LOOK AT HOW BEAUTIFUL THE SKIES ARE AT NIGHT!!! I loved staying here; it was my first time but it won't be my last! ALSO it is dog friendly :)

We got a great sleep, the air is so fresh! Right by the river with cute fishing decor. Very clean room and the beds were really comfortable. The room came with popcorn. The kids were having a great time, definitely recommend. Also Jeremiah gave very helpful recommendations for hiking, fishing and dining in the area. We'd love to visit again!

We stayed at this lodge two weeks ago and had a great time. This trip was a whole new experience. Onsight manager, Steve, was extremely unprofessional and rude. Our next door neighbor complained about spotty internet and lack of cell service and Steve told him it must be due to his devices. I then told Steve we were experiencing the same thing, and we'd be leaving a day early due to my husband's bad back, and lack of internet, but not to worry, we'd clean up and be out by 10:30 and that way he could get another customer. I asked him to refund me for the night we didn't stay since we were out well before 10:30 a.m. He refused, accused me of whining and told me that his boss is already mad at him for offering discounts. He then started yelling at both my husband and I in front of other hotel guests. I said, "Steve, please don't let your emotions rule you. This is business, nothing personal. He continued to yell and I told him that his behavior was extremely unprofessional. I've been in business over 40 years and would never treat any customer this way. A word of advice for all, Stay elsewhere, as I read another similar complaint about this lodge
