Nicely shaded. Right next to the river. Neighbors are really close though.

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

This is a great campground. Double check the water. It seems to be hit or miss on if their water is working. Other than that the sites are well spread out and shaded. No cell service, but that is a positive in my opinion.

Our stay at The Ponderosa was great! The Host does a great job at keeping the campground so clean! She is so friendly. The only complaint we have is when we reserved our campsite there was no mention about the potable water not being available. It was an inconvenience and I think we shouldn’t have been charged the whole price. Such a beautiful campground. We will be going back again.

- 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.
