Charming and updated.

We had a wonderful 2 night stay at this cute, very clean,updated motel. The hostess was extremely nice and helpful. The room was clean and beautifully updated. The shower was huge! The bed was comfortable, and the room had a Keurig with coffee pods and biscotti. The grounds are well taken care of and clean. The pool was lovely. I really liked the older feel of the property. The sign states the property originated in 1955. It has a lot of charm and I really liked the character of the place. There are a lot of outdoor seating areas, and the property is within walking distance of everything in Kernville. I would definitely stay again!

A Charming Motel with lots of interesting and unusual decor. Our hosts were terrific fun and even provided a musical evening of entertainment (Tuesdays). Room was good, clean and well provisioned with water, coffee and biscuits/snack. TV, A/C, Fridge and Fan all worked fine. Could do with a hook to hang towels in the shower room (or did we miss it?). Micro-brewery next door. Pizza’s down the road. Bakery and Diner just over the bridge and in the village. A Great Find!

Had a lovely two night stay with my dog where we were able to explore the nature in the surrounding area. Roberta was super friendly and great at giving advice on the surroundings area’s activities. The businesses in the town square are also all very friendly and accommodating. Was a great getaway and I’d absolutely go again!

We absolutely loved this charming resort. The room was super clean, comfortable and equipped. Roberta was delightful and very welcoming. She offered us everything that we needed, and made us feel right at home. Even BaBae (the large dog) was just as delightful. When we left, she did not offer a handshake, but insisted on a hug. I love this place, and so will you! I can’t wait to visit her, and this resort again!

Cute place with amazing staff

This place has a nice charm! It’s older and my room, although cute and rustic, smelled a bit moldy. The room was big, the bed was comfy and there was a lot of options for coffee and tee in your room! The hotel staff was incredibly nice and were able to extend our stay, just by asking. There were plenty of free snacks at the office which we were offered for free, from microwaved popcorn to candies, cookies and crackers. The only drawback was that there was no blow dryer in the room. Front desk gave us the option to purchase one at a local store. Overall a great place to stay!

Old hotel with super nice staff & clean rooms

Super nice and helpful staff. It's an old hotel, but clean and had a nice Keurig, fridge & micro in room. The resident Skunk was a little unsettling for me. And yes you will probably see & smell it!
