Very accommodating and enthusiastic hosts/owners at the office. Very nice and clean room, although small queen, it had everything you'd expect at a larger motel room. We loved the knotty pine throughout the room.

Uniquely re-done little motel. Quirky, cute and amazingly comfortable. Beautiful outside areas to relax in, as well. We would have enjoyed staying there longer. Will definitely stay there again.

The property was conveniently located, the garden and area around the lodge had a very natural vibe. The creek that ran through the property was beautiful. The room was clean yet small. It worked for us for one night. The owner was very nice, accommodating and had a lot of information about the area, food, and breweries.

Charming, Cozy, and Exceptionally Welcoming! We absolutely loved our stay at the Poncha Springs Lodge. It was cute and quaint with such a warm, inviting aesthetic—truly a hidden gem. Donna went above and beyond with her kindness and hospitality, making us feel right at home. Highly recommend this place!

The place was clean, but it was a no-nonsense hotel. Small and average. Bed was comfortable. Only stayed overnight. They usually have a campfire, but it was raining. No pool (which they never advertised). Older place. Also, it is called a lodge, but it was more like an older motel. Lady was both housekeeper and checked us in. Very polite and friendly.
