Stayed at Ponderosa Lodge as we were in town for a friend’s wedding and had the most amazing time! I’d consider this wedding trip turned couple getaway. The lodge was quaint and cozy, such a perfect place to stay! We had a nice fire place in our room and the hot tub outside was the perfect place to relax after a long day. It was our first time in Estes Park, but we will definitely be coming back to stay here again! Thank you for such an amazing stay!

Wonderful warm cookies on arrival plus wood for our fireplace and twin bear cubs ten minutes before arrival made for an unforgettable night.
Comfortable beds and nice hot tub on the river helped me check another line off my bucket list.
Moose and elk early the next morning made this an excellent adventure. We stay near the park 4-6 times a year and we will be back.

Wonderful experience at Ponderosa Lodge! Darrell and Katie were so friendly and accommodating and they went above and beyond to make sure our visit was special. We loved our cozy room next to the river and enjoyed the fireplace. Our room was immaculately clean. We highly recommend!

Great little place. The only thing I would change is the beds were very hard

we love the hot tub next to the stream, and especially enjoy the quiet ambiance in this time between high seasons. Katie was very helpful with arranging the after hours check in.

We loved everything about this lodge. Was on a honeymoon trip with my wife, we stayed there one night. My only regret is that I did not book us for another night. The front office was really nice and kind. The property is very clean and very beautiful. Our room was very spacious and very comfy, as well as clean. The area is very beautiful and we plan on returning back soon!!

We loved ponderosa lodge! So quiet and peaceful. Extremely clean. The office staff were so kind and helpful. We got a LOT of snow the weekend that we stayed and even lost power for a few short hours and they made sure that we were informed and had hot coffee. The hot tub and river views were lovely and we will definitely be back.
