Cozy Campfire Sips to Close Out the Season at Ponderosa

As the crisp October air settles in and leaves crunch underfoot, there’s nothing better than gathering around the fire with a warm drink in hand. At Ponderosa Campground, our final month of the season is all about slowing down, soaking in the beauty of fall, and enjoying those simple, cozy moments before we close up until May 1.


Here are a few of our favorite hot drinks to enjoy around the campfire:

Classic Hot Cocoa

You can’t go wrong with rich, creamy hot chocolate—especially when it’s topped with whipped cream, marshmallows, or even a drizzle of caramel. Add a peppermint stick for a little flair or a splash of flavored creamer to switch things up.

Mulled Apple Cider

Simmer apple cider with cinnamon sticks, cloves, and a few slices of orange for a drink that smells as amazing as it tastes. It’s a fall favorite that’s both kid-friendly and easy to make right at your campsite.

Campfire Coffee or Lattes

Start your morning or wind down your evening with a mug of freshly brewed coffee or a quick DIY latte. Add pumpkin spice or vanilla syrup to give it that extra autumn flavor.

Chai Tea or Herbal Comforts

We encourage you to follow our Facebook page to stay updated on event details and future announcements. There, you'll find the latest information on upcoming events, campground news, and more.​


Hurry, it’s not too late to book a final weekend stay to enjoy these events the next two weeks.


Join us for a spooktacular Halloween Weekend at Ponderosa Campground, where fun, community, and the season's magic come together in a celebration you won't want to miss.
