Absolutely beautiful! The 100+ year old ponderosa pines were a real treat. The camp is beautifully kept and well stocked. The cement pads surrounding the picnic tables and fire rings are a nice luxury. Salt creek running through camp made for a lovely soundscape.
Site 19 is small small small. Barely enough room for one 6 man tent. It’s set up on a hill so there is no room to expand. One side of camp slopes down the road, the other side is fenced and has a steep slope down to the creek. Access to hop the fence and go down the creek is right next to camp. It’s nice to only have campers on one side of you. There is no site on the other side which gave a bit more privacy and solitude.
All around lovely camp that me and my kids can’t wait to come back to.

We have camped at Ponderosa many times and have loved it! But this time they did not have any water and we were not notified ahead of time, we would have liked to have been notified.
We had to go back to town to fill up our tank at a gas station.

Nicely shaded. Right next to the river. Really close to another campsite, so you’ll have neighbors.

- Standard cancellations usually have a $10 cancellation fee. Customers can generally cancel before the check-in date online.
- Late cancellation rules differ by stay type.
- Individual campsites: cancelling after 12:00am local time the day before arrival usually means a $10 cancellation fee plus forfeiting the first night's fee.
- Cabins, lookouts, and yurts: cancelling less than 14 days before arrival usually means a $10 cancellation fee plus forfeiting the first night's fee.
- One-night reservations: a late cancellation usually forfeits the full amount paid, up to the total original reservation cost.
- Modifications are allowed before the cut-off window, but fees depend on the change. Changing to dates completely outside the original reservation dates may trigger a $10 change fee. Extending or shortening a stay that still includes original dates usually has no change fee, though refunds may depend on timing and facility rules. Switching to the same type of campsite for the same dates usually has no change fee, but price differences are charged or refunded.
- Early departures may or may not be refunded. At certain facilities, partial refunds may be possible if staff can mark the site available for other visitors. No refund is given for a night if the early departure is requested after that day's check-out time.
- Security deposits are separate. Security deposits may be refunded to the original payment method if the facility is left in acceptable condition, as determined by the property.
