"the greatest place ever!"

"Cozy, nice, clean and staff very friendly."

"Really cool reasonably priced quaint lodge. They also went all out for Halloween, which was pretty cool! Would stay here again. "

"Easy check in and out . River is literally a10 second walk . Quiet and peaceful nights "

"I was able to do my final packing before a larger trip, and enjoyed the comfort and quiet it offered me. I’m looking forward to a longer stay in the future!"

"We arrived in the dark, from the east, and just ate a bite before crashing. Imagine our wonder to wake with the sun glinting off Lake Isabella and the tail of the Sierra in the background: what a view! While we unloaded into the spacious property, we let the pup explore the big back yard. She was fascinated by the local scent palette, and trotted happily around to explore her domain.We were just as pleased by the spacious, open design and well-equipped kitchen. We usually cook instead of eating out, and the local Von’s had everything we needed. For fun, we also went down-canyon to Bakersfield, for a “big(ish) city” day. The location is calm and quiet, with little traffic, Dog-girl enjoyed walks, especially when investigating the huge digger pine cones or catching wind of the horse just up the hill.We’d hoped to visit Sequoia and King’s Canyon, but someone had closed them that week… or month. We did see that the road out of Kernville leads deep into national forest, reaching the Trail of 100 Giants in about an hour. Warning: the 2nd half of the trip is on roads not for the faint of heart. To reward ourselves, we stopped for burgers and beers at Kern River Brewing on the north shore. Dog girl was welcomed on the patio and got her own bowl of water. We humans greatly enjoyed our stay at Oakridge Ranch, and heard no complaints from our canine companion. She did not, however try the bidets in the bathrooms; she’d have probably thought them fancy drinking fountains."

"Good parking, room clean, nice and Quiet."

"Very clean and friendly staff. Super convenient "

"Was not able to get to the property due to fire danger so could not rate cleanliness bu but gave good ratings because the host was so helpful and cooperative about refunding our money based on fire risk. So we assume all property was good. "
