About this property

Log Home In The Sequoia National Forest - Perfect safe zone

This 3,541 sq. ft. luxury log home is in the Sequoia National Forest and the Scenic Kern River. It has 3 bedrooms and a loft, 3 baths and a vanity, and accommodate up to 12 guests in beds. Can sleep more if needed. This is one of top homes in Kernville, California. It has also been voted the number one home in Riverkern by the local residence. We love Green and Green, and Frank Lloyd Right. This is our reflection of a great home that we would think Frank Lloyd Wright would be proud of. This lodge is in the Sequoia National Forest. If you have a problem with wild life, ants and spiders you may not want to stay in the forest. This place is very comfortable and reasonably priced to stay, and it sleeps the most people in the Kern River Valley. If your looking for a Trump Hotel with gold fixtures, this is not your place.

-------------------------------------PERFECT SAFE ZONE -------------------------------------------

If your looking for a place to away and be safe, this lodge is perfect from populations and up against the forest. All Surfaces are wiped down with beach and water, such as the floor, all door knobs, all surfaces, the bathroom, and bleach in laundry. We supply hand sanitizer, and plenty of toilet paper. It is the a perfect safe zone for your family to be safe. The best way to stay away from the flu is to go where the population is low and against the national forest by the river. It is the perfect get away. Staying in our lodge to get away from large cities is also a great vacation opportunity too.

If your are a fly fisherman... This log home is the perfect place for you and your friends. Your walking distance with your pole to the river!

If you love to hike. We have a hiking trail across from the house that you can hike along Cannel Creek to a water fall and oasis, or back pack into the wilderness.

If you like to whitewater raft.. This place is perfect for your large group and have everyone under one roof!

Looking for a rafting company! We also own Eagle Rafting to take you down the Kern River for a splashing great time!

8-29-22 Rachelle comments. Thanks for the comments Rachelle,
1. Lights down stairs not working. I am sorry about the lights. They are located behind the bar under the bar top with dimmers. I do mention this in the "Hello Letter" we send to folks when they schedule a reservation. We will try to make this more apparent to future guests that the sliders need to be in the up position for brightness.
2. We have gone out and got curtains for all the bedrooms and the bathrooms that needed curtains! Thanks for that input and we now have curtains in all the bedrooms and bathrooms for more privacy.
3. We advise maid service to pay attention to details in cleaning,, whip down cobwebs. The spots have been removed from the carpet.. The maid service has been advised. We are looking into new carpet right now.
4. I will remind Maid Service to make sure the previous folks left the cupboards, pot and pans and knives a re clean orderly.
5. We purchased all new bedding for the lodge!

Gloria made a few complaints. The lights to the back porch do work. There is a light switch in the master bedroom and at the back door of the dinning room. We have a swamp cooler and the temps in the house is in the 70's. If you like your place in the 60's you may want to go somewhere else. All the bedding is new... Gloria says all the beds smells dirty. Did she actually sniff all 13 beds???? All the bedding is new... All the bedding gets washed after every stay. Maybe we can add a scent strip to the dryer. I didn't know the pool sticks were broke. How does a pool stick break in half???? Pool sticks are not swards to beat each other with please just use them on the balls and not on each other. I bought more pool sticks for playing pool with. Please refrain from smashing my pool sticks because you missed a shot.

My knobs to the doors are upside down???? Wow.... I installed them and Gloria is the first person in 10 years to bring this up. I think they look great! I'm not changing them,
