Clean and friendly in Poncha
A very budget motel…absolutely the smallest room I have ever had but it was clean and the bed was comfy enough. The owner was very friendly and when I asked for more coffee & shampoo he provided them no problem. The shower was large but VERY dimly lit—-probably my biggest issue.

Excellent lodge with great ambience!
I got a few rooms for my family for a wedding in Buena Vista! Both families couldn't stop raving about the owners, their rooms, the fire pits area, and I personally liked the price!

Very nice owners in the process of improving a 1950’s era motel with tons of character and easy in/out access. Rooms are small but perfect for what I was looking for. Typical of a bygone era. Great fire pit at night.

Very clean, comfortable and homely room. Really warm welcome from the owner. During our time in the USA, we stayed in a few motels and some were very stuck in the 1950s. However, the Lodge at Poncha Springs is a great example of how a modern day motel should be as it has obviously been given some TLC and been well maintained.

This place is a cute idea. The staff is great! They were very helpful & friendly. I loved the outdoor fire that was welcomed in the cool evening air. However, I personally feel this place needs a lot of work! The size of my room was small, for a single traveler, it was good though. The shower was terrible. Dimly lit, nowhere to put your stuff & the water was COLD! I ran the water for a good 15 minutes, waiting for it to get warm.. but by that point, I think all the warm water was gone. The window unit was a huge disappointment. The filter was absolutely disgusting, completely covered in dust! I took it out to clean it, but it just needed to be replaced altogether. When I turned it on, it blew right in my face. Nothing like your sinuses drying out while sleeping... The walls are PAPER THIN! I could hear my neighbor's conversations like I was sitting in the room with them. Would I stay here again? Not unless I knew the whole place had been redone. Good concept, just not executed correctly.
