Top Camp Nelson Hotel Reviews

Americas Best Value Inn Porterville

8/10 Good

"I was very impressed. All I needed was a bed and a shower for a late arrival and an early departure. I chose it because the price was attractive, but I worried that I might find the Bates Motel upon arriving. It looks like new construction and a large building. I will gladly stay there again.

"River Retreat House" - River With Two Decks, BBQ, Firepit🔥, near Sequoia Park

10/10 Excellent

"We had a great time here! Family loved the place. The PacMan arcade game was a nice touch to add a little entertainment for my 8 year old daughter. Wild life was abundant. Met what I would say is the neighborhood male deer. Came to visit a couple mornings. Also saw foxes, racoons, and turkeys driving in. Depended on the time of day. Daughter also liked relaxing on the rocks next to the river. Could imagine us going back. Its off the beaten path but thats what we were looking for. Beds were comfy too. Days were extremely hot when there but fortunately had AC. There was power outage one day but fortunately we had plans going to Sequoia which is a lot cooler. Slick Rock recreation area is also nearby which was a hit as well"

Paradise Ranch Inn

10/10 Excellent

"A 10/10 experience from start to finish. Was one of those places that somehow exceeds the photos, and we left already talking about when we could come back. The highlight for us was swimming in the freshwater canyons nearby, genuinely one of the most fun afternoons we’ve had on any trip. Cool, clear water, gorgeous scenery, and the kind of thing you just don’t get at a typical hotel. We also saw a ton of wildlife around the property, which made every walk feel like a small adventure. Then at night the stars come out and it’s a whole other reason to be here. Very little light pollution, so you get that full sky you forget exists until you’re standing under it. The staff deserve a special mention. Warm, welcoming, and genuinely happy to help with anything — recommendations, directions, logistics. They made the whole stay feel effortless."

The Kern Lodge

10/10 Excellent

"Wonderful stay. Room had a few maintenance issues but nothing that distracted from our visit. Rooms were very clean and beds quite comfortable. Cleaning staff was extremely kind and accommodating and really added to a good experience. The value for the money is good and we'd definitely here again if our in Kernville. Recommend it for it's small town charm, cleanliness, and value."

Lakeshore Lodge

8/10 Good

"Room was clean and comfortable but no maid service given between nights. Walking distance to Lake Isabella with a view from window. Remote-off-site check-in at nearby Barewood Motel after 3pm. Friendly staff. Comfortable room and bed, AC & paddle fan on ceiling kept it cool in very hot weather. Good TV choices. No breakfast provided other than coffee, so bring food, beverages, snacks or stop at a store on the way and use fridge and microwave. Restaurants 5 minute drive away in Kernville. No pool. Free parking. Quiet. I'd stay there again."
