Excellent one week stay!

I had a good stay. It was near the national park. The staff was very friendly and helpful. Thanks, Jessica!

Love the riverside rooms. Great staff. Beautiful sitting areas next to the river as well. Will come again.

We LOVED the lodge and everything about it!

Our room was right in the brook, with a balcony overlooking the water. Our room was clean and comfortable. Everyone at the lodge was so helpful and so nice. We got in late. And the checkin was so easy! Would definitely stay here again. It was also super close to the park and downtown! Right in the middle between the two, so you didn't have to drive through the downtown traffic to get to the park. There were still restaurants in walking distance. Such a great, peaceful spot!

My 70 year old mother and I enjoyed our stay at Ponderosa Lodge. While a bit stuffy in the afternoons when we returned (daytime highs were near 90), the awesome fans they had in the room cooled it down quickly. I enjoyed sleeping with the window open at night. We had a kitchenette suite and it was so helpful to be able to cook on the stovetop in the room. The sleeper sofa was incredibly comfortable, as was the bed. Very clean with a nice staff. Will stay again.

Very nice place to stay! River was beautiful! Clean and quiet. Close to everything! Staff was friendly and very helpful. We would absolutely stay there again!

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!

River side hotel room with rushing water. Wonderful helpful staff. Would definitely stay here again.

Great location along the Fall River. Within walking distance to downtown Estes Park.

We had such an amazing two night here. Just 2 miles from the entrance of the national park and not to mention the beds were so comfortable. Highly recommend

Loved the river

This lodge was perfect for mine and my husband’s four day anniversary stay! The staff is so friendly from the check in process, which by the way she had fresh delicious cookies made for us at check in! To the staff that we would answer our questions about things around town, and the cute dog, super helpful and just friendly and down to earth. Also, having a room right on the river was so relaxing to listen to. We loved hanging out on our personal deck and often just left our door open with the screen closed (bugs) so we could get the breeze and hear the water while in the room. We also got lucky and had two elk walk by! The bed was very comfortable, having a mini kitchen worked out great for us too! The room had a fireplace, we didn’t use it. The hot tub is open 24 hours, we didn’t use it though, although it’s a perfect location. It has a playground for kids. The property is beautiful with seating areas and a fire pit too. I sat out on the chairs by the river while my husband fished. Easy drive to town and to all the shopping. We ate a pub super close by that was very convenient as well and delicious! We absolutely would stay here again!!

Property was beautiful and well maintained with awesome river running thru. Room was large, clean and had many amenities - will definitely stay again.

Nive quiet location beside a rushuibg stream. Very attentive and pleasant staff.

Staff was super nice. Property was beautiful. They even have a little log book to write about your stay in the lodge rooms. So adorable. It snowed and didn't know it was going to snow! Such a beautiful place. Listening to the river at night was amazing as well.

Fantastic "Fall River" experience!

Very clean and up to date rooms

I loved the atmosphere and the room was cute. I can’t really complain about the place or experience, except that the room was so hot and the fan did not help. Our room was at a consistent 77 degrees. We were unable to change the thermostat, which is probably so people don’t run up the bill for heat or air conditioning. However, it made it uncomfortable to be in the room even when sleeping. Thank you

Outstanding location- by a beautiful river and three miles from Rocky Mountain NP. The room was cute, clean and comfortable.

Beautiful place with lovely stream running right in front.

It is in a great location close to park and town. Very clean and great service. Great service. U fortunately no air conditioner and I found it very uncomfortable at night. Opened the door and used fan to cool it down but warmed up quickly when patio door was closed. It has a latch so can be kept open at night a couple of inches but didn’t help much. My room wasn’t very private. If I opened the door and curtains at night and sat on sofa everyone coming up back stairs was looking right at me. Not all rooms had this isssue. Balcony wasn’t private. Just a walkway. Loved the atmosphere by the river and nature. Well maintained

The patio overlooking the creek was our favorite spot to enjoy on the property.

Love Ponderosa Lodge. This was our second time to stay here. The location is amazing; we love being right on the river. The hot tub was nice! My only negative would be the room was a little warm for our taste; we opened the window and used the fan and that helped. Will definitely stay here again.

Minutes from RMNP and downtown Estes. There are a few restaurants that are walkable to. We spent most of our time out and about, but when we were there it was peaceful. As an introvert, the balconies could have been a little more private as they weren’t completely closed off and you could see the people out next to you, but that would be my only complaint.

The location is excellent, the staff is very friendly! The carpet and couch seemed really dirty and run down! The bed and pillows are uncomfortable! The room is quite spacious and the balcony view over the stream is quite cute!

We liked everything - from the two most hospitable ladies who greeted us to the room itself. Room was perfect, right on a stream - with balcony overlooking. Beautiful setting, comfortable beds and great coffee! We’d go back if ever in the area again. Thanks!!

Great room! Like using your uncles cabin. Everything was there, even a deck of cards. hot tub steps from our porch by the babbling brook. very comfortable room

Beautiful view of river but a little hard to park and road at property could use some filling of holes.

Excellent experience and stay!

Great hosts! Great rustic feel, but modern amenities. Had a late check-in and all went seamless. Would definitely stay again!

Friendly staff and good facilities. Outstanding location -- great view of Grand Lake and close to entrance for Rocky Mountain National Park.
