Our stay in the Getaway Cabins at Ponderosa for Christmas was absolutely amazing! This was a perfect way for my family to spend time together. We loved the lodge/clubhouse. Our cabin was very clean and fully stocked! The staff is amazing and so friendly. You can tell they love their job and take pride in the park! Thank you all so much for such a wonderful experience! Oh, and it was also nice to be so conveniently located next to so many great shopping options!

Absolutely wonderful park. This was our first time here and we loved it! The staff was incredibly helpful and our getaway cabin was perfect for our family. There was so much to do in this area too. We spent our days at the 2 local parks and walking the trails along the river. There is so much history in this area, we can't wait to return!

Great location and beautiful clean facilities. The staff was very helpful but not intrusive. I enjoyed the lodge and the bathrooms were immaculate, campsites were woodsy and very nice.

Great place to get away with the family! We stayed at one of the cabins above the river and the kids couldn't have been happier. Great history around the area and a great river walk t I'mo the park.

Resort & campground are well taken care of and bathrooms are clean.||Grateful to get a 50 amp FHU site this time, makes life so much easier in our all electric coach.
