Thanks so much for this sweet little piece of heaven. I feel like I’m in my own little world at this place. Not to mention the waves on a bad day are better than most… Can’t wait to come back.

Where to begin? We had little idea of what to expect, but we could not have imagined a more perfect time at La Ponderosa! The food, the company, the cabinas, the dogs, the surroundings – and most of all, the hospitality. Thank you for everything. We’ll be back!

Glad I took my bud’s advice to come to La Ponderosa… If the surf doesn’t bring me back the BBQ chicken will.
