What I loved, the beds and shower I miss already! The Ponderosa is currently undergoing a transformation and our room was clean with all new furnishings and windows. Small kitchenette with full size refrigerator. We walked everywhere but Mike can rent you a golf cart at a very reasonable price if you need. Food choices were all within a six or seven minute walk for us. Very quiet at night with no disturbances. We definitely will return. Mike was attentive and easy to reach.
Best shower ever!
Upgraded mirrors in bedroom and bathroom.
Just add food.

I really like the location. The lodge is pretty much right in the center of town within easy walking distance of everything. They are currently doing renovations but the unit we stayed in was nicely accommodated. I also like that they're a pet friendly location which made it very nice for us to bring our pups along.

We arrived without reservations and I needed beds for 6 adults. The staff set us up with adjoining rooms that were more than sufficient. The rooms were freshly remodeled and all appliances were like new. I was so pleased with the cleanliness of the entire property. The staff was friendly and efficient. I would give them 6 stars if I could. It will be my place to stay when visiting Red River N.M. We loved our stay!!!
