lodginglodging reservations in Ponderosa
This hidden Sequoia Grove can be all yours, if you don't mind searching the dirt roads for it. Back road exploration in the Giant Sequoias can lead to amazing picnic spots. Ponderosa California is small mountain community on the Western Divide Hwy, near the Upper Kern River & right in the middle of big pine forest beauty. A general store, a restaurant cafe, a bar & several cabin homes. The newest National Park addition, the Giant Sequoia National Monument, is located here.
