What an amazing and adorable place! Super friendly and helpful staff. We stayed in the glamping tents and there was enough heat provided to keep us warm. Bathroom/shower facilities were very clean and heated! I will 100% come back!

We stayed in one of the glamping tents at Zion Ponderosa Ranch, and it was everything we hoped for — a perfect blend of nature and comfort. The tent was clean, cozy, and well-equipped with electricity, quality bedding, and even a heater, which made it feel like true glamping rather than roughing it. The entire property is beautifully laid out, quiet, and peaceful — exactly what you’d want for a stay near Zion. Everything was within walking distance, and the parking and transportation setup was seamless and well-organized. The staff was exceptional across the board, and the highlight of our stay was the Observation Point hike, which we accessed easily via the East Zion Adventures shuttle. No complaints at all. We’d absolutely return and recommend it to anyone looking to experience Zion without sacrificing comfort.

It did have a lot of amenities which we didn't end up using as we focused on exploring the park. The leg on the futon pullout couch was broken and they said would fix the next day but didn't. We used a rock to stabilize it. The bed was not comfortable (big dip in the middle). Half of the showers didn't have hot water.

This resort has so many things to do that you cannot get bored. It is the perfect place to come with children. Our cabin was clean and had plenty of space. The taco truck was delicious. We will be coming back to stay here again.

You see a lot of advertising online and when you get there, it's just "meh". Definitely not as nice as it looks online. Furniture from garage sales. The only great thing is the location.

Beautiful setting. Good location to wind down. The property seems ‘tired’. We attempted showers in multiple of the shared showers but found no hot water. There was trash remaining in the lodging that looked to have been there a while

We had a Cowboy Cabin. Bunk beds double size. Two outlets for charging our phones etc. warm enough with blankets to not turn on the heater. Short walk to shower building which was clean and well lit. Maybe 8 showers. Felt safe. Goats walking around the property. Lots to do. We signed up for and enjoyed a great astronomy class u day the stars with a very knowledgeable guy and his laser pointer. Was awesome. So much to do there, wish we had more time but we were busy going into the park.
