MAKE SURE YOU LOCK YOUR CAR DOORS. We had a great experience with staying at the Ponderosa. We had to call the maintenance people when we first arrived because of a leaking toilet and broken chair. Excellent service all around!

The cabin was very cozy and Christmas time which I loved. The coziness made us feel quite at home. Not to far up the mountain not so close down the mountain perfect spot. This trip was for myself and my nieces to bond and have a good time and we did just that. The hot tub was perfect temp and I couldn't stay out of it. The pool was too cold for my preference but the girls enjoyed it. I would recommend your cabin to many of my friends and family. I think the only thing was not good was one of the rooms was hot. Thank you so much!

We had made a reservation at another property in Sevierville. After a 12 hour drive, discovered our property was double booked. The owner made arrangements with the owner of the Ponderosa. Within the spirit of the season, Matt (the owner) was able to provide a last minute shelter for our family. The cabin was so cozy. Just what our family needed after a long day on the road. Beautifully decorated as you would imagine a cabin at Christmas. Thank you for the restful stay. The amenities were plentiful. I am so very grateful to all that quickly found us lodging. Thank you to all!5

Ponderosa was overall great!

It was clean and super nice. We expected there was a game room but there wasn’t. Only a pool and hot tub that was not in the cabin, separate building outta the cabin.
There was mold on the ceiling in a couple rooms. But it was overall clean and tidy. Plenty of room for all of us. We had a friendly groundhog that visited everyday we were there. It was in a location away from everything but close enough to drive to everything. The road going to the cabin was super curvy and narrow and only one guard rail on one side. It was a little scary. Our free attraction tickets didn’t work!
But our overall stay was quiet and good!
We would stay here again and recommend friends.
