We had a great time at this house! The hosts responded right away to messages. Everything was clean and well equiped. The living area and kitchen were spacious. It was a pleasure to be able to cook together, eat around a big table, & watch the game on TV. On top of that there was pool, ping pong and a hot tub large enough for an even bigger group than ours. And YES the sunset was gorgeous. We hiked next to two beautiful rivers each only 10 minutes away. We will happily come back.

Great stay at the Ponderosa Chalet with our 2 adult children. The table was the perfect size for game night, and the pool table and ping pong tables were lots of fun. Hubby enjoyed the hot tub. Great communication by Jazzy and David, and an easy check-in/check-out process. Recommend!
