This property is the definition of relaxing. The location cannot be beat. It is close to town but still feels like you are in a cabin in the woods. The river on the property was so peaceful.

The lady working there I believe her name was Jessica was extremely helpful and friendly! Made it a great stay as they are very accommodating. A nice little low-key place to stay that is away from town yet very close.

We loved the Ponderosa Lodge! Highly recommended! We absolutely loved the location, so close to the entrance of RMNP. Staff was amazing and very personable (even gave us tips where to see wildlife)! Very quiet and relaxing, just what we were looking for! We will definitely stay again when back in Estes Park!
