Ponderosa Lodge

A Place Set Apart

Nestled in the pines on the banks of Fall River, The Ponderosa Lodge is a place set apart. You feel it as soon as you turn down the drive, a one-lane road, that winds through the pines and along the river.

Enjoy quiet relaxation with the river always murmuring at your doorstep. We aim to provide a relaxing getaway. We are also a great source for local information on anything that strikes your interest in the Estes Valley and Rocky Mountain National Park.

Seasonally at night, colored lights, a longstanding tradition at the lodge, transform the property into an enchanting home away from home.

"Wonderful Stay"

We have loved our stay here. We booked the economy room and have enjoyed it. This place is on the road straight to town and the Rocky Mtn Natl Park. My husband was able to do some fly fishing in their stream and there are chairs and a patio for everyone to enjoy. The shower has excellent pressure and hot water. This place is not a luxury suite at the Four Seasons but it is a great place to rest after a long day of hiking and fishing. The staff has been great and no problems with check in. Also, this place is reasonably priced. There is no AC in the room but it stays a constant 72-73. A small fan would be a great item to pack if you like it a bit cooler. There is a mini fridge, a microwave, and a coffee pot which come in very handy. I have weak ATT service but their internet has been great. Overall, this place is cozy and comfortable.

"Perfect Getaway"

Everything about the lodge was perfect. Darrell and the team there are so friendly and helpful, sharing tips that made my time in RBMP extra special. The room and bed were extraordinary comfortable, and the setting was peaceful and felt like home. I was enjoying it so much, I stayed an extra night and booked for next year when the semester ends. The fireplace was such a nice added bonus, and the microwave and fridge made stretching my budget even better. Thank you all so much. This was a much needed and long awaited break for me and you all made my stay feel like a luxury vacation.

"Perfect Introduction to Estes Park"

Friends were visiting from North Carolina and I wanted them to have a taste of Estes Park. It was a last-minute decision to go, and unfortunately, the Ponderosa Lodge only had one room available. My friends stayed here, and I stayed in another property about a mile away, with no view, and $40 more expensive.

‘Impressive’ does not even come close to defining their experience. The manager was so welcoming, personable, and informative. The room was clean and comfortable. The fireplace was great, they enjoyed the hot tub, and then, there was the river, right at their back door.

I look forward to staying there myself when I come to Estes Park next time. Thank you for welcoming my travelers!

"So Comfortable That It’s A Home Away From Home"

This was an amazing find! Hotel is located right along the creek. We had a room with 2 queen beds, kitchenette with everything you could need, dinette table, and wood burning fireplace. The beds were very comfortable with nice and warm comforters, which was very much appreciated since we stayed during the winter. We thoroughly enjoyed our stay here.

"Cozy Little Place Along The River's Edge"

Cozy little place along the river’s edge. Very friendly staff and clean rooms with kitchenette and wood burning fireplace. A short walk into town for shopping. Make sure to head back before dark for a beautiful sunset view. Early morning you can catch a glimpse of the elk traveling to town during their mating season.
