My family really enjoyed our time at Little Ponderosa. The house is on a quieter stretch of the Guadalupe, which was perfect for us! It wasn't flowing much, but had plenty of ice cold water for us to tube downstream. The house was great and well stocked!

Amazing property w/ great location!
This house was amazing for our girls group! There was plenty of space, and several even had beds to themselves. Beds were comfortable, and house was roomy and well stocked with plenty of towels and kitchen items. Kitchen is very open and has tons of counter space (a necessity with a large group!) Deck area has 4 tables and abundant seating. Owner met us shortly after we checked in and he was very helpful to give us some tips on the house and river.
The river access is easy and quick to get in and out. Even with the water levels lower due to dam break and drought, the area off the dock was very deep and easy to hook up a group of floats. I recommend bringing lots of rope, and caribeeners to clip everyone together. We tied to the tree on the bank, and the owner had an anchor that we used to anchor the other side of the group towards the middle so we didn’t ever hit the bank. Worked perfectly!!! River area does get some Sun but also has lots of shade for those who wanna float away from sun.
The river outfitters is about 4 houses up and they said they would have picked us up and returned us to our house (or we could’ve entered or exited at our house to do either the upper float or the lower float). We didn’t end up paying for a float (bc flow was slow), but we may utilize them next year.
Grocery store is a few minutes away and there is a great Hunts Brothers Pizza in the Chevron Station about 4 miles away.
We will definitely return to this house again for our annual float trip!

Roomy and Relaxing
My family of 3 adults and 3 young children stayed for a short weekend . The house was clean & contained had more than enough room for all. The kitchen was well-stocked with everything we needed for cooking. The outdoor deck and large yard provide shade from the sun, and we enjoyed being outdoors; swimming & watching tubers float by. Joyce is a terrific host and was quick to respond when I had a question.

This was the perfect home for a long getaway weekend! We had a group of 9 guys, all had their OWN beds, on the most perfect spot on the river you could ask for.

We absolutely adored the location of this property. It is on a beautiful part of the Guadalupe River. The house was clean, the beds were super comfortable, and the kitchen contained all the cookware, dishes and utensils you could need. Our party consisted of 4 teenage boys and 2 adults. We were all very pleased to learn that the house had cable television. So, we were able to watch football over the weekend. Robert met us for check-in and gave us an informative tour of the house and property. He even offered suggestions of local eateries and attractions. We were very pleased with this rental!!

Beautiful comfortable house, great location
I put together a pre wedding trip here bachelor/Bachelorette trip and we had an amazing time. The house was absolutely beautiful, Well taken care of. The owners where super nice and easy going. This house is in a neighborhood with neighbors but they didn't bother us, even being out on the deck late at night. We used the BBQ pit to smoke some chicken on which worked great as well. There's a tube company walking distance from the house so that was convenient as well.

First of all this place is amazing! The home is located just after one of the crossings and the view from the patio is gorgeous. The river is about 6 foot deep in front of the house and a rock bull head to fish off of. The beds were ok and Tamra was great to work with. Check in and check out are very easy. We are definitely renting here again, we had absolutely no issues.

This was an awesome place to stay. There was 10 of us and we had plenty of room. Caught lots of fish and enjoyed the deck and fire pit. The kitchen was big and fully stocked . Lots of cold air and everything we needed was there. The hosts were very friendly and helpful and we would like to stay there again soon.

Fun weekend on the river.
The house was beautiful, clean, comfortable and in a wonderful location. My only complaint would be about the appliances. The microwave didn't work. The fridge didn't get very cold. The oven doesn't bake thoroughly and the smoke alarm didn't work. We were traveling with a fireman, who just happens to always check the smoke alarms. :)

Wonderful Family Retreat
This was the first time for our family to gather for a river outing.
We found the “Little Ponderosa” to be a unique home in a lovely location with warm, helpful owners. Family meals on the deck; fishing; tubing; and kayaking offered something for everyone! Quiet conversations around the outdoor fire pit were a great way to reconnect. We look forward to returning in the future.
