Great place! We arrived right at check-in and had a chance to briefly talk to the hosts. They were super friendly and had great recommendations on the area. The space was modern, clean, and comfortable in a nice little neighborhood with restaurants and a store within a very short walk. The private river beach gate was about a 1/4 mile walk from the place. The beach had access to both a sandy section with slow flow (like a little lake) for lounging and a rocky section with faster moving water. It was very warm (100+), but the home was well air conditioned and super comfortable day and night.

The spot was nice. we were doing a girl trip so we spent most of our time while we were at the house , outside. It is such a beautiful area, and we tried to see it all. The river was close, a few blocks away, but no view. Our group was 3 woman 68 years old, and 2 of us made it to the river easily, but 1 of us would not be capable. The house comes w river access so we walked a couple blocks to the private gate, and then down to the river. The spot is amazing, but the trail is not for older people w mobility issues. I would definitely go back to this spot, but not w our friend who could not make it to the river.

I have never left a 1 star review before. My family drove 5 1/2 hrs to this home only to drive back. The home is small as expected and the shared patio space is small as well. This was expected. A few things surprised me that I urge you to keep in mind 1) the private beach was not private. There were roughly 10-12 families on the beach (this was over the Fourth of July weekend - however, still it was not private), the beach is not easily accessible from the home. We walked about 15 minutes down a busy road with no sidewalk and down a dirt path. Doing this with two small children trying to keep them safe and was challenging. The photos of the exterior are misleading/ they are just the surrounding Kern river. It would be like me living in an apartment in San Diego with no view or access to the ocean saying my home is oceanfront. Also the shared grill was shared with 2 other families. We paid $700 for this trip and the host offered us back $150 even though we left; low integrity overall
