Mid-Century Mountain Retreat with Stunning Views

RobertoRating, 5 stars1 week ago
A Perfect Mountain Getaway for the Whole Family! Our family had an absolutely wonderful stay at this incredible mountainside home. From the moment we arrived, we were blown away by the breathtaking panoramic views. Waking up to the sight of the mountains each morning was a truly special experience. The amenities were top-notch and provided endless entertainment for everyone. The kids (and adults!) spent hours in the fantastic game room, which was a huge hit. After a day of exploring, sinking into the hot tub while enjoying the stunning scenery was the perfect way to unwind. The house was clean, comfortable, and had everything we needed for a relaxing and memorable family vacation. The host was also very communicative and helpful. We can't recommend this place enough and are already dreaming of our next visit!

Charming & Stylish Bungalow | Near Downtown

NicoleRating, 5 stars6 days ago
We had a truly wonderful stay at this beautiful home – it honestly felt like stepping into the pages of an interior design magazine. Every detail has been so thoughtfully curated – stylish yet warm, aesthetic yet completely functional. It made our (far too short!) visit incredibly comfortable and easy. Communication with Gerrit was excellent – kind, helpful, and responsive throughout. The house is located in a quiet, refined neighborhood, and stores are just a short drive away. It’s also a perfect base for visiting Sequoia National Park – the morning drive to the park entrance is pleasantly manageable. One of our favorite features was the lovely garden seating area, complete with an apricot tree that surprised us with its sweet fruit. A truly special place – peaceful, charming, and full of care. We would absolutely love to return.

I loved the clean kitchen, which was well-stocked with utensils and tools. The yoga room had a peaceful atmosphere and was beautifully decorated—perfect for a morning yoga session. Joyce also recommended a nearby grocery store, which made it convenient for us to shop for food in the evenings and prepare our daily meals. I would definitely recommend this place for couples looking for a cozy and well-equipped place to stay.

Kernville Oasis w Private Pool! WALK to town/river

KaylaRating, 5 stars3 weeks ago
Kirstin’s home was the perfect place for us and our family to relax and enjoy the beautiful sunny weather! The house was nice and cool when we needed to escape the heat. We all enjoyed playing a game of pool. Everything was clean, the house, pool and back patio were absolutely beautiful. We were so busy, we told ourselves we need to come up again and take advantage of the bbq and relax in the backyard at night. The sounds of the waterfall in the pool, the bugs, and the frogs were so peaceful. Thank you again for being an amazing host! And being so quick to respond!

A Stunning River Retreat ~ pool * hot tub * sauna

DustinRating, 5 stars1 week ago
A gem in the river. The property is expensive and it has all the amenities you could ask for... pool, spa, great seating, fire pit, and all right on the river. it felt very private even though we knew there were other properties around us, you just couldn't tell. Our host was very helpful and recommended a local rafting guide that was phenomenal! The beds and pillows were also very cozy. We will be sure to come back the next time we visit Three Rivers.

OliviaRating, 5 stars1 week ago
Paul’s place was perfect for my groups weekend getaway on the kern! Highlights consisted of the many games he offers from pool table, darts, ping pong, to games such as cards, bochie ball, and catch phrase! We really enjoyed using the hot tub while gazing at the mountains. His place really had everything we needed and more. It was in the heart of kernville making it walking distance to the river, local brewery, rafting companies, and the town’s stores. This is a place i always look forward to staying and i sure hope to stay here again in the future. Beautiful property that made our stay magical. Thanks again!
