Incredible house close to Yellowstone!
We had a wonderful time at the Ponderosa Lodge! It was perfect for our 2 families (total of 9) traveling together. We all said it was one of the nicest vacation homes we've ever stayed in. We wished we could have stayed longer! Everything was very clean, well-stocked and the host provided great directions. Highly recommend staying here!

Amazing Property with Every Detail Covered
Our groups chose the Ponderosa Lodge for our travel to the West Yellowstone area. Our first impression of the property was how beautiful and spacious it was in the photos. Then after reading pervious traveler reviews it quickly jumped to the top of our list of places to stay. We were just amazed at the attention to detail, the amenities and all the thought that was put into the cabin. The cleanliness and preparation rivaled most 5star hotels we have stayed in. Even the kitchen was completely stocked with every appliance we could have needed. There was plenty of space for all our travelers, room to relax and spend time together and even have full dinners at the luxurious dining room table. Rand, the owner, left a complete stay guide which fully explained, not only all the amenities that were offered, but even how to properly care for the home, the location of items that may be needed....right down to the remote controls for each room. We will definitely come back to stay at the Ponderosa Lodge again!

Outstanding - just like the pictures
We had an excellent week at Ponderosa Lodge. There was plenty of room for our large multi-generation family. The 4 master suites with en-suite baths make it easy for the adults to choose their place. The downstairs game room was fantastic for kids and held the only TV. Hidden in the cabinets are a multitude of games in case the weather keeps you in the lodge. There are 2 (yes 2) washers and dryers to help you keep up with the laundry. The house was fully stocked with paper products (sometimes shortchanged in other VRBOs). The kitchen was out of this world. It stocked almost anything you could need. The kitchen furnishings (appliances, pans, flatware, etc) were top notch.There were 2 refrigerators (we used one exclusively for drinks). The kitchen had plenty of space for 6 adults to be cooking simultaneously. Great place for a group reunion. We would return in a heartbeat. It may seem somewhat expensive, but it is worth the extra $$.

Luxury in West Yellowstone
We had a family vacation to West Yellowstone at the end of June, and we stayed at this beautiful house. Everything exceeded our expectations. Rand and Sonia were extremely easy to work with, and they responded when I had questions about the hot tub and the electricity. Both were very minor issues that were resolved in minutes. The best feature of this home is the space it provides. Each couple got an extremely comfortable king bedroom with attached bathroom. Each bathroom had a double sink and a rain shower with beautiful stone accents. The home was beautifully decorated with a rustic, western feel with some very upscale furnishings. While all five master bedrooms had the same offerings, each one was decorated in a unique way. The kids' room in the basement had three queen beds, which worked perfectly for the mix of ages of children in our group. The downstairs living area and game room was a nice addition as well. There is only one tv in the entire house in this downstairs living area, but our group appreciated the break from a tv being on all the time! Upstairs, we especially loved the spacious living area, dining area, and kitchen. It was great that it was one enormous room, so that those that were cooking could still be a part of the conversation. The dining table held everyone beautifully, and it was especially nice for big group games! The location of this house was ideal for visiting the parks! Our visit was fantastic, and I would highly recommend this property!

Pure Joy at Ponderosa
This is so much more than a cabin. We were able to spread out after a day of tours. We sat around the fire and watched snow in June. We gazed out the huge windows at moose. We were spoiled around every turn, yet always felt cozy at home. Thank you Rand and Sophia. This was an amazing respite from Yellowstone and the wonderful activities of the town. Thank you for sharing it with us.

Mountain setting!
My favorite was the perfect kitchen with everything you needed and so spacious! The game room down stairs for 6 Grandsons and Granddaughter and oldest Grandson’s girlfriend was perfect with the foosball table and air hockey and their own TV. The little guys liked the room under the staircase to play their devices. The location was called evening to town, lake and Yellowstone and the near by rodeo and horseback riding. We felt we made a great choice. We lived all the windows so we could see outside and feel we were in the mountains. Thank you for all the perks regarding bathroom accessories and kitchen being so well stocked and laundry room. It just added to our first Yellowstone trip for this Oklahoma and Virginia family. Thank you so much and God bless!

Beautiful home close to west entrance to Yellowstone
Our family of 11 spent 5 nights in this beautiful home nestled among pine trees. It was a very quiet area with only a few other homes nearby. The 4 master suites along with a big bedroom and game room on the lower level for the the kids were perfect for us. All the bedrooms are far enough off the main living area to be quiet for those going to bed early or sleeping in late. The large open kitchen, dining, and living room with fireplace was beautifully and comfortably furnished. The kitchen was well stocked with cookware, bakeware, dishes and utensils. We found lots of spices stocked in the cabinets, too. Two refrigerators held all the food and drinks we needed for our stay. Having 2 washers and dryers was also a plus. We enjoyed having the use of a gas grill and the tables with the lighted fire rings were a great place to be on the cool evenings. There is a large fire ring area in the backyard, but rainy days kept us from using it. Everyone enjoyed the hot tub after our long days of sightseeing in the park. We had the opportunity to meet the owners while we were there. They were very personable and helpful throughout the booking process and our stay. They take great pride in their homes and provide a clean, comfortable place for all to enjoy. The housekeeper and maintenance man were both quick to respond on our first day when we had issues with the lock. If we ever go back to Yellowstone, we would rent this house again.

Amazing stay at Wowyellowstone’s Ponderosa Lodge!
We rented this house for a family trip to Yellowstone National Park so that my father could celebrate his 75th birthday at his favorite place in the world! Eleven of us from ages 2 to 75 stayed here and this place was absolutely AMAZING!!!! The house was beautifully decorated, so comfortable, and anything we could have wanted or needed was there! Rand, the host, was very responsive, sent us great information, was there to show us around when we arrived and even gave us a tip on how to beat some of the traffic to get into Yellowstone Park in the morning. If you are reading this and are considering renting this house don’t hesitate! Grab it before it’s gone! You won’t be disappointed. Thanks Rand!
