Home Away from Home

This is at least 6 times we have stayed at the Ponderosa and it never disappoints! Love seeing (from a distance) the wildlife…that’s always a treat! Always neat and tidy, clean, and our host is nearby to answer any questions! We have already booked this place this coming fall and will always consider this “our home away from home.”

Evergreen Near Downtown

Check-in was easy. The property owner communicated days ahead how to gain access. The kitchen is great! We cook and had everything we needed (pots pans etc). The kitchen is a good size with clear view of large great room. The kitchen has good lighting and large windows which I like. There is a good amount of seating in the great room. The bedrooms were a good size for our group.

February One Month Stay

The Ponderosa House was a quiet, comfortable haven to call home for the month. Enjoyed being so close to downtown Evergreen, trail walks and Evergreen Lake. The porch was a treat to warm in the sun or watch the frequent herd of deer in the yard. Our hosts were readily available. So thankful we chose Ponderosa House for our stay.

Wonderful cabin in idyllic location

This was the second time we stayed at Ponderosa this year. We love the location being able to walk to the lake and downtown Evergreen. The cabin is well appointed and has everything one would need. The best part is sitting out on the deck and watching elk walk by.

We needed a cabin in Evergreen that would hold 6 adults for a long weekend when we were there to celebrate our son’s wedding. This was the perfect place. Not only was it close to downtown and the lake, we discovered that it was within walking distance of our son’s home too. Each day deer came by and looked in the window at us, and on our last day two elk and their babies wandered by also. We stayed inside and watched the wildlife through the windows. We took full advantage of the kitchen and grilled burgers and steaks twice. Eating on the patio in the cool evening was lovely. Even though there were neighbors on both sides it felt like we were in a secluded cabin in the woods. We will definitely be back more often and take advantage of this place. It is so lovely and convenient and we had a wonderful time.

Beautiful cabin in the woods and close to evergreen lake

The cabin has been beautifully renovated with modern kitchen and a modern small bathroom. Fully stocked kitchen with good dishes, pots, pans and spices. The bed was comfortable. Husband and I are 75 so we opted to use only the lower bedroom as the upstairs steps were a bit steep for us. The lake can be reached by foot or a short drive. We walked around the lake with our dog several days. The owner who is a delightful lady and her son were very responsive to the few questions we had. We had many elk and deer in the yard daily for our enjoyment. Would stay again if we come back to Evergreen.
