Located in Pine Mountain, Pine Mountain Inn is a sevenroom, two-story inn, each with private baths and individually themed rooms. The inn is also located within walking distance to the Pine Mountain Country Club golf course and is an ideal location for horseback riding and hiking trails, according to manager Diana Chase, who added that all guests also receive a pass to golf at the club’s private nine-hole course. For those looking to relax in more cozy accommodations, Chase reassures you that the home-away-from-home amenities are included in your stay: flat-screen TVs, Direct TV satellite, DVD players, free high-speed internet and coffee pots with hot chocolate, tea and coffee. Chase refers to the place as glamorized camping, or “glamping,” and that the only roughing part is that cell phones do not get coverage in the area.

Frandy Campground in Kernville is an all-accommodating campsite for travelers with small or large groups, according Beverly Demetriff, camp manager. Demetriff added that the camp is family owned and on Saturday evenings, they host a family movie night with popcorn, as well as free coffee on weekend mornings. With its walking distance to downtown Kernville, guests can enjoy the camping life without foregoing the shopping and dining experiences nearby. The camp features restrooms and showers and is located on the Kern River, which Demetriff said is nice for fishing and river access. There are also three rafting companies on site offering a variety of deals. To make reservations, call 760-417-0860, or visit frandy.net. Continued on page 113
