Neighborhood highlights

Ponderosa is a gorgeous, very remote small mountain town at 7200 feet. It has about 35 full-time residents. Nearby attractions include Trail of 100 Giants, Dome Rock, Slate Mountain and The Needles. **Because of recent wildfires, some attractions are temporarily closed by US Forest Service.

Be prepared for a glamping like experience and your expectations will be exceeded! There are no gas stations, grocery stores, restaurants, no Uber, no cell service. Please come prepared! You will bring all of your food and fill up with gas before heading up the mountain.

The last hour of the drive is very windy so we recommend you arrive during daylight. In winter and early spring months you’ll likely need 4 Wheel Drive or SNOW CHAINS. Consult CalTrans for road conditions.

My work: College Admissions
Lives in California, United States
There’s something about being in nature that helps give perspective and remind me what really matters in life! Casa Pondo has been an absolute dream come true! While my primary residence is a small apartment in the heart of Los Angeles, I love getting away to the mountains to slow down, reflect, and connect with God, friends and family. It's my absolute joy to share my very special home away from home with you!
