The couple that are managing the motel - David and Allison - were great! They were helpful in every way from sharing information about the area to restaurant recommendations as well as letting us back in the room when we inadvertently locked ourselves out! They made our stay very enjoyable!

I stayed 3 nights on a trip to investigate the north east corner of Oregon. The front desk staff were amazing as was everyone I had dealings with in this area. I will definitely come back here again and will stay at the Ponderosa Inn. Thanks for the outstanding hospitality❣️

Everything was exactly as advertised, and a very nice informative welcome and check in. The rooms are a clean comfortable western log cabin decor with comfy beds. A good variety of breakfast choices to take back to the breakfast table in our room. We would stay again.

I have nothing but praise for this place. It is obviously well maintained and looks really inviting from the outside. The staff were both wonderful when I checked in and they were able to move me upstairs as they had initially found me a room below but I was hoping for an upstairs room instead. The motel was quiet. I had a dog also and the area surrounding the motel was perfect for an early morning dog walk before heading out. Next time I am in town I will be staying here : )

We rented two rooms after a five-day motorcycle ride, and we loved the location, price, and friendliness of the staff. I've stayed there before and I'll do so again!
