Darrel was very kinda and welcoming. The place itself is super cute and cozy and tucked away from everything. It was the perfect escape. Next time, I want to check out the hot tub and spend time on the little balcony. Looking forward to staying at Ponderosa Lodge again!

Our room(s) were great. We actually stayed in two different rooms during our stay and both were wonderful. We had a bit of trouble with the electronic locking system, but the manager was extremely helpful and responded quickly to resolve the issue. We were very pleased with the accommodations and the responsive staff. This is the place to stay when visiting Estes Park.
Friendly visitor!
Ah, Great coffee.
Beautiful view!

Everything was very nice except that the stove didn’t work. But the bed and living and dining areas were cozy. I especially enjoyed the large windows and balcony overlooking the river.

Liked: Staff & service

Not worth the money.

Not worth $600 for a 3 night stay. I was under the impression we would have a private cabin and not next to other people. The balcony can be accessed by your neighbors so you don’t have privacy. The hot tub smelled like mildew.

Excellent accommodations and guest service! Provided texts with all the details we needed to find the driveway, our room access details and responded right away to questions about the amenities. The kitchenette had everything which was wonderful for us to have home cooked breakfast /coffee before early days of hiking. The rooms were cozy and comfortable with fireplace , deck, and lodge themed decorations. Clean and quiet for a restful sleep. Staff was friendly. I will be back when the mountains call again!

We lone hearing the stream flowing and looking right out the door as it goes by. The room was very clean and good soaps and shampoo's to use. The cabin decor and amazing coffee make it extra nice. Also love the fire ring and fireplace in the room. I wish it would have been cold enough to use it.

Great for my husband and me and our grown daughter while in Estes, bc she could use the couch bed pullout. There is a portable cooler available which helps in the summer. The host was so friendly. Love the stream:)
