Great space, very clean. The host was so kind to talk with me and answered the questions I had. The only thing that would have been helpful to add to the book they had with restaurant and activity ideas, would be a map or directions for where you can either walk or drive to get to the river. I thought you could get to the river from across the house since it was listed as "1 block from the river," but accessibility to the river wasn't 1 block away.

Short stay and was ok for that.

The owners were very nice and easily to communicate with. The home interior was very old with 2 broken recliners and a fridge that didn’t keep our food or drinks cold.

Thank u for ur review. I wasn’t aware that there is a problem with the frig so will check it out. House cleaner said it was cold when she had been there. The foot rest is broken on one of the recliners but the chair is so comfortable we left it while another one is on order. Didn’t know other chair was broken??? The house was built in 1992 not sure what was old about the interior. There are not a lot of new houses in Kernville. I appreciate u choosing my place.
