My boyfriend and I stayed here for our 7-year anniversary and my 27th birthday, and it was such a beautiful experience! The location is absolutely stunning — peaceful, serene, and right next to the river, which made it feel like a true escape into nature. If you love the outdoors and tranquility, this is the place for you. The staff was very friendly and welcoming, and the entire atmosphere of the lodge was calm and rejuvenating. Just a couple things to note: they advertise having TVs, but there wasn’t one in our room. The internet connection was also spotty, and the breakfast options were pretty limited — yogurt, oatmeal, breads, and fruit. Still, those were minor things compared to how relaxing and peaceful our stay was. Would definitely come back again for a quiet getaway!

It was in a beautiful location, if that's what you're looking for. Expedia said it was 11 miles from town. It is about a 50 to 60 minute drive. The actual property wasnt cleared for adventuring. Also, expedia said it would sleep 6...it did not. It slept 4 and one of the beds was broken. Thank god we had our kids with us and not more adults. The shower was not un the bathroom either so there was zero privacy; needless to say the pictures were very misleading. But the girl running it was very nice.

The property has potential. Upon arrival there was electrical issues the mini split heater was broken and never repaired the remainder of the stay a small space heater was provided. There was no hot water the first night it came on in the morning for about an hour then off again we notified the front desk and left for the day when we came back it was still off and I had to tell them again no hot water. It was remedied but the following morning the water was very brown and unusable so we just left. 473 dollars down the drain. Also the pin they have on the maps is so wrong. The property is about 40 minutes from Kernville not 6 like the pin will tell you.

What it states on the website is a lie. You won’t see Sequoias at all if you stay here at Quiet Mind. You will be deeply disappointed. Winter heating doesn’t work. Room felt like an ice box. Staff seemed clueless. There is no zen atmosphere. Property run down. I booked 3 night but escaped early the next morning after only one night. I didn’t want to waste the valuable vacation time I had. They also won’t give a refund . Not a good place to stay. They need to shut down or pour more funds into improving and they need to tell the truth on their website the realities rather than being deceiving.

The front desk is very friendly and accommodating upon requests. I stayed in what was advertised the 700 foot mobile home. It was a RV that you drive. The carpet inside was quite worn down as well as the couch and seating area. It is advertised that there is a 32 inch TV with cable but there is no TV also the Wi-Fi is free but had to go sit in the front lobby to access and could only text that make any phone calls Because the signal is so weak. The kitchen was not fully stocked and skillet was old and scratched up. But again the Front Desk was able to go into the kitchen and accommodate what we needed which was wonderful beautiful area by the river did not use the hot tub because it was not warm enough. Breakfast in the morning is OK it’s continental with some more eggs

Such a wonderful, relaxing property with top notch staff. Hiked to all the waterfalls on property, enjoyed the in-room tub, the included breakfasts were convenient and really tasty, and driving to local hikes and Kernville was super easy. Nice way to unplug, but still have great amenities. Loved it!

I loved my stay here. The clawfoot tub was amazing. My only feedback is I wish there was a table near the door, there wasn’t anywhere to put my luggage other than the floor. Also a mat on the inside near the door would be helpful, it was pouring rain during my stay and I needed a place to put my wet boots. Other than that, very peaceful location and a kind and helpful manager.

This was one of the most amazing experiences. We came from Wisconsin to see the Sequoias, and Quiet Mind was peaceful, with amszing views, and short distances to world wonders. Our host was awesome, breakfast was wonderful. There was a mountain and a warerfall footsteps from our room. Just, WOW.

AMAZING experience! I can’t wait to plan my return. This place is so special and cozy. I literally didn’t want to leave when it was time for checkout. I enjoyed the vibe both employees gave off and found them enjoyable to chat with. Even the free breakfast wowed both my partner and I. There’s also an app you have access to during your stay with meditations for sleep. Mini bar is impressive too. One more side note-the massage chair was the cherry on top for me.
