This resort was absolutely beautiful! Everything was well kept, and the atmosphere was peaceful and relaxing. The staff were so kind, helpful, and friendly—they really made me feel welcome. I had a great time and would 100% recommend this resort to anyone looking for a nice getaway
I went there this past weekend on a solo trip and didn't have a reservation but was able to stay one night in the glamping tent! The first room they gave me was actually not cleaned so I did have to go back and wait for them to relocate me to another one but it was not the end of the world, just a minor inconvenience. Since they had to check the room, they had the heaters on when I got inside it and it was nice to have a few minutes of it being warmed up before I got settled in! The tent itself was spacious, had a couch and a single bed and then a big queen (I think) sized bed with a reading chair next to it and an end table on the other side with a lantern which was soooo helpful!! The staff was super helpful, welcoming and nice. The bed and pillows were super comfortable and shockingly the heaters warmed up the entire tent. The pool and views are gorgeous and the bathrooms were nicer than I expected and so warm! Since I was only there for one night I didn't really get to do or see anything else I tried to do the stargazing but it was canceled due to it being cloudy so that stunk but can't control that. It is definitely more of a summer/fall and a family spot and it is located pretty far off the beaten path but my rear wheel coupe made it just fine. They also have wifi which I had no issues with at all. I'd love to go back in the warmer months and stay longer so that I can do more things but for one night it was perfect and pretty reasonably priced for places to stay near Zion!
So glad we found this little hidden gem to take us back to our childhood camping days. The log cabin was perfect. So cozy for the 30 degree November nights w/ heaters inside. Only downside was the bathrooms. Totally okay with shared use! It’s what we booked of course, but the showers were just dingy and gross. Hard to feel clean after. Won’t go into detail because it’s whatever. The resort property was very accommodating. Breakfast,lunch &dinner and great coffees. Staff were all so so nice. Hot tub was such a plus. Loved the relative distance to Zion park. So close! Great experience overall.
Our family had an incredible stay at Zion Ponderosa Ranch Resort! We stayed in one of the covered wagons, which was such a fun and unique experience—especially for the kids. Between mini golf, swimming in the pool, and playing ping pong in the recreation room, there was never a dull moment. We also ate at the on-site restaurant, and my husband absolutely loved the pizza! The resort had a relaxed, family-friendly atmosphere, and the location near Zion National Park made it even more special. While a few areas could use some updating, like the pool and shower facilities, it didn’t take away from how much we enjoyed our time there. The overall experience was truly unbeatable—from the beautiful setting to the variety of activities for all ages. We left with great memories and can’t wait to come back. Five stars from us!
I really loved this property! The location was great, and it’s truly a gorgeous place to stay. The property was clean, well-kept, and had a lovely view at all times of the day. The amenities were great, my favorites were the pool, spa, and shower rooms. The cowboy cabins are also a very affordable option, which I appreciated. That said, my stay wasn’t perfect. When I arrived, the heater in my Cowboy Cabin had been left on from the previous guest or cleaning staff, so the entire cabin was uncomfortably warm. The ceiling fan barely worked, which made cooling off difficult. The beds were very uncomfortable and the pillows thin and flimsy. I don’t expect luxury, but the comfort level was disappointing. The shower rooms also lacked shampoo or conditioner, which wasn’t a huge deal but would’ve been a nice touch if provided. Overall, I’d love to come back because the property itself is beautiful and has great potential, but I hope to see some improvements in comfort and amenities before I do.
