Property Description
A small river winds through Kernville Ranch’s 15 acres of meadows, shade trees, and grazing horses. Meadowlands Cottage, a quaint bungalow attached to the main house, overlooks the lawns and fields. Guests can swim in the river’s seasonal swimming hole, relax in the cedar hot tub under starry skies, or enjoy the zip line and rustic wood burning stove with endless firewood.
The MAIN BEDROOM features a queen bed, ensuite bath, and built-in curtained bunk with a wall-mounted TV—perfect for kids or privacy. The BATHROOM has a tile floor, walk-in shower, and vaulted ceiling, with doors to both the bedroom and hall.
A sound-insulated central door connects to the neighboring Mountain View listing. For larger groups, both it and the nearby Shiny Spartan trailer can be rented along with the cottage.
The cozy DEN doubles as a second bedroom or living room, with twin beds, a sitting area, TV, and potbelly stove with ranch-cut firewood. At the heart of the house, the KITCHENETTE offers a stovetop, two mini-fridges, toaster oven, microwave, sink, and laundry facilities.
Guests have private use of the cottage and are welcome to explore the fenced grounds. Shared outdoor spaces include the hot tub, river, lawns, barns, and trails. A dedicated groundskeeper visits daily to care for the horses.
I don’t live on-site but remain attentive and responsive. My husband and I have worked in horses and hospitality for over 20 years, and I was honored with the Hero Award from XXX in 2014. While this historic property occasionally has quirks, I strive to make every stay memorable and comfortable.
Nature provides its own magic here—deer at sunset, children chasing frogs in the mint field, or herons gliding over the meadows. Kernville Ranch offers families a unique mix of comfort, history, and wide-open beauty.About pets:Pets allowed: dogs (limit 2 total).There is a fee. There are cameras.

Relaxing stay
This cottage is a short walk from the town square. The property has grills and a hot tub. There are areas to hang out both indoors and out. The property is fun to explore.
Our infant slept soundly in the bedroom while we played cards outside or sat in the hot tub. The hot tub is within range for our video baby monitor. Some board games would be a nice addition to this space. This is a nice spot to relax and would be a great space for gatherings - particularly if you could snag other spots on the property.

Cozy little place
Me and my wife enjoyed the meadowlands cottage, very quiet and tranquil exactly what we were looking for. Beautiful little town and lovely people that live there. Will definitely be going back again very soon

Wonderful property!
If you need a quick relaxing and affordable getaway, this is definitely the spot! The property grounds are absolutely gorgeous. Horses, hammocks, a little peaceful stream, beautiful greenery, hot tub, bbq, and plenty of shady mature trees. We loved our stay with the fam! Highly recommend.

Adorable little Place
The place is set on a horse ranch. There is a little stream that runs on the property. It has a wood hot tub but I didn't find it as inviting in person as it appeared in the photos. The floor plan of the house is great and easily works for 5 people. The little home is decorated nicely. The property manager was easy to communicate with. Location is not too far from restaurants or the Kern River. I would stay here again!

Shabby Chic Little Farm House
An adorable little house within walking distance from the Kern and town. This place is attached to another property. It had a great floor plan and was a comfortable space. The property manager was very easy to communicate with. I was looking forward to using the hot tub but, it was not for me. However, this was because someone (else visiting the property) may have left the top open after they used it and it filled with tree leaves/droppings. Regardless, we very much enjoyed our stay here and would stay again.

Enchanting Property
We enjoyed our stay at the Meadow house so much. It was close enough to downtown to grab a quick meal but far enough away to be peaceful. We had such a relaxing time. I am in love with this vacation rental.
The Meadow House is only one bedroom with additional sleeping in the living room or common area. You can really only do toaster oven or simple meals in the kitchen. There is plenty of dining in town though so you may not need the kitchen at all.
