Bringing Your Dog to Ponderosa? Here’s What You Need to Know

At Ponderosa Campground, we know pets are part of the family, and we’re happy to welcome yours! All of our cabins are pet-friendly, and we ask for a $15 fee per pet, per stay. When booking, just let us know how many furry companions you’re bringing along.

To keep everyone safe and smiling, pets should be calm, well-socialized, and on a leash at all times. Adults must accompany pets while on the property, and we kindly ask that you clean up after them. For everyone's safety, pets aren’t allowed in the pool area.

Please bring proof of up-to-date vaccinations to show at check-in, and if your pet needs to stay in the cabin without you, be sure to bring a crate or small pen. If a pet becomes disruptive, we may have to ask you to head home early, and we’d really hate to see that happen. Let's all work together to make your stay a tail-wagging good time!

We allow up to two dogs per campsite and ask that they be well-behaved and not disturb other campers. For those with pets that need to stretch their legs, we have several pet-friendly areas where your dog can play, but please remember that aggressive behavior or excessive noise is not allowed.
