Ponderosa is a gorgeous, very remote small mountain town at 7200 feet.
This is a REMOTE location on the top of a mountain which is part of its charm AND means you need to plan ahead! Being prepared is key to having a great experience!

No gas station (fill up before heading up the mountain)
No cell service (there IS wifi).
No grocery stores or restaurants so plan to bring groceries.
NO TRASH SERVICES so you will take all of your trash down the mountain with you. (do not store trash outside or critters will make a mess!)

It has about 35 full-time residents. Nearby attractions include Trail of 100 Giants, Dome Rock, Slate Mountain and The Needles. **Because of recent wildfires, some attractions are temporarily closed by US Forest Service.

The last hour of the drive is very windy so we recommend you arrive during daylight. In winter and early spring months you’ll likely need 4 Wheel Drive or SNOW CHAINS. Consult CalTrans for road conditions.

Great mountain getaway!

Amazing getaway in the mountains!! Sledding, hikes, short drive to 100 Giants and if you get to know the locals, like Clark, you can even get a snowmobile tour :)

A True Delight

Could not have been happier with our stay at Casa Pondo. I had a lot of questions having never been to Ponderosa before and the host Sarah was always very quick to respond and very helpful with what felt like never ending questions. The cabin is in great condition, all the amenities worked flawlessly, spectacular fireplace, awesome sledding all around, the list goes on! The morning views from the loft are truly remarkable and it was a trip my family and I will always remember. Thank you again for sharing it with us, already thinking about when we could possibly make it back!

Lovely remote get-away

Ponderosa is very remote, a nice place to be in nature without others around. The cabin was very clean and comfortable and backs to open woods. Sarah was extremely responsive in all communication. A lovely place to stay to get away.

Best appointed mountain cabin ever

This cabin was the cleanest and best appointed mountain cabin we've ever stayed in (and we've stayed in a lot). This is particularly important when staying in a such a remote mountain area without local conveniences. Sarah had technology hubs throughout (internet was surprisingly good for remote mountains), darling dinnerware and matching sets of glasses/mugs (might seem silly that I mention that, but we've actually brought our own wine glasses because cabin glassware has been so sparse at some places), a keurig carafe & pod coffee maker with an assortment of coffee/condiments etc., even a coffee grinder, a brita filtered water pitcher, placemats, dishrack, a great assortment of pyrex/pans/utensils all in good shape, a nice contemporary oven/stove/microwave, great wrap around deck with privacy gate to keep out uninvited forest visitors, a smart tv, wonderful sunken/whirlpool bathroom tub with a view of the forest. Lovely forest views of cedar, pine, and mountain boulders out every window. The kitchen had dish/hand soap dispensers. The bathrooms had hand soap lotion shampoo/conditioner dispensers. If I had known (believed) that the cabin would be so well appointed, I could have left a good quarter of my stuff at home. Water pressure great.The drive way is flat/ accessible (an added convenience in the mountains especially in winter) Our stay was in September when the weather was warm, but the cabin had lots of extra blankets cozy seating & games for a fun winter visit too.

Om verten

There’s something about being in nature that helps provide perspective and remind me what really matters in life! This cabin has been an absolute dream come true! While my primary residence is a small apartment in the heart of Los Angeles, I love getting away to the mountains to slow down, reflect, and connect with God, friends and family. It's my absolute joy to share my very special home away from home with you!
