“Ponderosa Lodge strikes me as genuinely charming. The riverfront location, enhanced by the new management's touches like hammock chairs, makes the most of its natural setting near Rocky Mountain National Park, and the in-room kitchenettes are a practical bonus. I think it offers a solid base for exploring Estes Park.”
