Oh, Whispering Pines, it's hard to share your sweet secret of respite. I just want to keep you to myself. Away from it all , tranquil, serene & very clean. Your lands offer beauty along a river bank where I can rest my weary head and nap deeply to the sounds of waters running through my dreams. My little escape out of LA just 3hrs to peace within nature's rejuvenation at the base of the Sequoia's. I've been in the summer & fall. Now mid winter. You won it all. I can't wait to be w you once again when I need to rest & dream in your very comfy bed. Thank you my lil nook in the pines.

Whispering Pines Lodge in Kernville, California, has been a refuge for me for decades, and during this recent evacuation from the LA fires, it offered an unparalleled sense of peace and safety. Nestled by the river, it provides a tranquil escape, where the sound of whispering pines and flowing water creates a serene atmosphere. My visit became even more meaningful as I took time to reflect, offering prayers for the land, the animals, and the people affected by the fires. The lodge, with its natural beauty and calming energy, is a true sanctuary. The staff was exceptionally kind and accommodating, making our stay even more comforting. It's a place where you feel at home, a rare and valuable gift in times of uncertainty. I am deeply grateful to have this haven to return to whenever I need it.

Quaint, super clean, large upstairs cabin. Living room, jacuzzi tub, huge bathroom, double sinks and shower. Comfy couch, fireplace, large outdoor deck. We can hear the river flowing. Super comfy firm king sized mattress in a large bedroom.Lovely grass knoll area for pets or just enjoying the view.Pet friendly cabins. Coffee maker, small fridge and microwave. Complimentary tooth brush, comb, coffee and tea. Very kind and appreciated. Restaurants and a grocery market are within a short drive.Update, we decided to stay an additional day and got a studio room with a view of the river with balcony. Also has a large, very clean bathroom with double sinks, tub and separate shower.Truly enjoyed our stay and how accommodating the owners were.

This place was a bit dated, however it was very clean. Had all amenities, A/C, heater, coffee pot, mini fridge. Place is quaint, quiet, and right by the Kern River. Staff was very nice. Totally recommend it.

Cute place to stay in Kernville. Stayed in 106 partial river view lots of trees blocking it. Bathroom is very large had a separate bathtub and shower. Bath tub was not in service. Patio deck off the room is great for stargazing at night. They have Direct TV so lots of station n movies to choose from. Black out curtains so very easy to sleep at night. Convenient location to restaurants and James Store. There is a walkway to the river. Check it out. You can walk to eat. Parking in front of the rooms.

I've stayed here a few times and have had a GREAT experience each time. The location is unbeatable. Very peaceful yet still close / convenient to stores and restaurants. I've stayed at 4 other lodges in Kernville and this is by far my favorite! Rooms are spacious and clean. My ONLY complaint are the pillows; they are large / thick and uncomfortable. Luckily each time I found 1 small pillow and my husband was fine sleeping without one at all. The lady running the office (wish I could remember her name) was great! Super welcoming, helpful and even fun to talk to! Can't wait for my next visit to Whispering Pines!

The kind of rustic lodge one dreams about. We hung out in the pool....110 degree heat outside, cool but not too cool (perfect, actually) water temperature inside...and it overlooks the beautiful mountain range. The people are nice, the room came with a wonderful balcony...just a nice place to be.

This spot is a hidden gem. We stayed here during the Rivernook Beer Festival since my wife is pregnant and a tent and air mattress wasn't ideal and it was way better than we expected! The rooms have a nice cabin-y vibe with lots of wood. An electric/gas fireplace in the room as well as a/c. The patio views were amazing! The staff super friendly. Couldn't ask for more, will definitely be back. I'd love to see this place in the winter when it's snowing

This place is so fun to stay. Our family loves coming here in the summer and swimming in the pool and taking a tube ride in the river. We also like staying in the fall and winter months. My kids like how close we are to Kernville and walking to get a meal or ice cream in town. We also like to BBQ on the Lodge BBQ and just hang out. Every time we come visit we have a fun time.
