I loved the little stream that was flowing. I stood in the rain for a few moments to enjoy it. It was right by my room. The room was cozy. Perfect size for me! The outdoor setting area would make a great place to star gaze. The staff were amazing. Very kind.

Clean, comfortable, and classic (and friendly too)
This is a classic motel from a by-gone era! However, the owners have modernized it enough that it is quite comfortable, cozy, and attractive. The bed was dreamy and the room quiet and conducive to a good night’s sleep. Everything was very clean. The owner could not have been more welcoming or accommodating. I would definitely recommend!

Very nice place & quiet, good night's rest. Only thing I was not a fan of was the blinds cut around the window a/c unit did not provide full coverage over window. Later in the evening, you could see directly out people walking around which means they could see directly in. Other than that, very nice & would stay again.

Clean and friendly in Poncha
A very budget motel…absolutely the smallest room I have ever had but it was clean and the bed was comfy enough. The owner was very friendly and when I asked for more coffee & shampoo he provided them no problem. The shower was large but VERY dimly lit—-probably my biggest issue.

I got a few rooms for my family for a wedding in Buena Vista! Both families couldn't stop raving about the owners, their rooms, the fire pits area, and I personally liked the price!

Very nice owners in the process of improving a 1950’s era motel with tons of character and easy in/out access. Rooms are small but perfect for what I was looking for. Typical of a bygone era. Great fire pit at night.

Very clean, comfortable and homely room. Really warm welcome from the owner. During our time in the USA, we stayed in a few motels and some were very stuck in the 1950s. However, the Lodge at Poncha Springs is a great example of how a modern day motel should be as it has obviously been given some TLC and been well maintained.

This place is a cute idea. The staff is great! They were very helpful & friendly. I loved the outdoor fire that was welcomed in the cool evening air. However, I personally feel this place needs a lot of work! The size of my room was small, for a single traveler, it was good though. The shower was terrible. Dimly lit, nowhere to put your stuff & the water was COLD! I ran the water for a good 15 minutes, waiting for it to get warm.. but by that point, I think all the warm water was gone. The window unit was a huge disappointment. The filter was absolutely disgusting, completely covered in dust! I took it out to clean it, but it just needed to be replaced altogether. When I turned it on, it blew right in my face. Nothing like your sinuses drying out while sleeping... The walls are PAPER THIN! I could hear my neighbor's conversations like I was sitting in the room with them. Would I stay here again? Not unless I knew the whole place had been redone. Good concept, just not executed correctly.
