My husband and I were trying to find a place that we could cross country ski from that was not too far away. After reviewing hotels of the area, we choose this best western. Since it was a special occasion we went with the Suites that have a king size bed/fireplace/jacquizzi. The employee on the phone was very helpful with... More

We arrived to a completely empty hotel. I guess that we might have come during the low season, but it was very nice. Be sure to get the jacuzzi suite which looks into the main room from the tub. A romantic place to relax and watch movies while the snow falls. More

We appreciate your taking the time to tell everyone about your stay in one of our Aspen Suites. and we are glad you enjoyed your romantic get away here with us. The Aspen Suite is the more romantic suite for sure. The snow has finally come so the snow lovers (skiing, snowmobiling, and snow shoeing) are here, excited with the... More

Who would think hidden behind the exterior wall of this Best Western you'll find an beautiful plush room awaiting. We have actually stayed here before and knew that the rooms were so nice. We had a king suite with fireplace, jacuzzi with window from bathroom overlooking main room and fireplace. Very romantic, the bed extra comfy, who would have known... More

Thank you for staying with us here in the Sisters area and providing a review regarding your recent stay here at the Best Western Ponderosa Lodge. I agree, we are a Hidden Jewel an the Aspen Suites are very romantic. Many people drive by saving they need to stop and stay sometime, and when they do, they wish they had... More

Room was huge, comfortable, attractive. Great bed and bedding. Nice colors and furnishings. And it's probably the only time I've actually had any desire to use the tub in a hotel to take a bath - great corner type jacuzzi, filled up fast, felt great. The lamps could use bulbs with a little more wattage, and I personally didn't like... More

Spacious rooms, friendly and efficient staff, rustic themed buildings, all expected motel facilities, outstanding housekeeping: all of these characterize the Ponderosa Lodge. Buildings are set in acres of lawns on the south side, and a Ponderosa forest to the north. The views are spectacular. The motel is a short drive to Sisters, a tourist and recreational center in the Cascades. More

We stayed here Friday, Nov. 11 and had a great stay. The rooms are very nice and clean. They rooms are very large and have a nice sitting area. There is a rock fireplace and a jaccuzzi two large enough for two. The water in the tub was very warm - it must have its own heater, but the shower... More

Booked hotel from Trip Advisor reviews. The hotel did not disappoint. Quiet, large room, clean, and nice staff. Even better with the llamas as an attraction. Only downside was the spotty wifi. Would stay there again. More

Much better than you might expect of a smallish-town Best Western. It actually has lawns and land and trees. And updated rooms. And a decent breakfast (included). Nice. More

This was a very nice motor lodge. Bathroom was great. Two sinks. Can't get better than that. Pet friendly and they have beautiful green lawn but dogs had to be leashed. I understand the leash business, but after a dog has been in a car all day, it would be nice to let them run and stretch their legs without... More

We stopped in at this motel to check it out for a reservation made for next year and can't wait to go back. You feel as though you are comfortably camped in the forest, rather than in a chain hotel on a busy highway. The staff were friendly, helpful with local information, and efficient, and the decor is absolutely charming.... More
