About Us
Hi, we’re Carol and Rod. Rod is a native Californian and Carol hails from upstate NY. During many family summer trips to East Coast lakes & rivers, we realized how much we enjoyed this quieter type of travel. The search began to find our own little piece of the outdoors in the majestic, romantic West. We found it in the Southern Sierra. We first discovered Kernville through our interests in fly fishing & hiking. As many have before us, we soon became enamored with this river hideaway. Since then, we’ve sought to provide special places to stay that reflect our appreciation for local design, history and landscape while providing a comfy, well-appointed basecamp for those familiar with the area or newly discovering it.
