TINY HOME PERFECT

WE STAYED AT ZION PONDEROSA FOR OUR VISIT TO ZION PARK. IT WAS CERTAINLY MORE RELAXING THAN THE BUSYNESS OF SPRINGDALE, AND NOT THE RIP-OFF RATES CHARGED THERE. IT WAS A BIT OF A DRIVE TO GET TO THE PARK EACH DAY, BUT WORTH IT. THE RANCH RESORT SITS ON HIGH GROUND WITH GREAT VIEWS. THE TINY HOME WE STAYED IN WAS GREAT,,,WELL EQUIPPED INSIDE AND OUT.

Disliked: Amenities
If you rent a cabin be prepared to walk to restrooms and showers which is not a big deal unless it’s the middle of the night. The cabin we stayed in had a lamp with exposed wiring and the heater was damaged and was afraid to turn it on and it was a chilly night. The food was good but a little overpriced but you don’t have much of an option once you are there. While we were eating one of the staff opened a window and it was blowing freezing air on us while we were eating and we had to move.

This was my first time staying at Ponderosa Ranch and it was a delightful experience. We went on a hike to Angel’s Landing and we’re looking for a nearby hotel and this is the perfect spot at a very affordable price. Awesome experience!

Good solid cabin for a camping in the woods environment. Queen suite was rustic but with an updated bathroom. Kitchen didn't have a stove but had hot water, microwave, and mini fridge. Heat in cabin worked well considering how cold it was outside.
