Learn more about this land: Campsites are gravel parking with park-like lawn, well kept, and surrounded by a small picnicking area with extra parking, porta potty, garbage receptical, BBQs, tables and chairs on sprawling grassy lawns shaded with 100 year old large trees. Perfect for a large group. We have a big tree swing and an adult size teeter totter for you to enjoy. There is a horseshoe area. The camping sites are back in only, so if you have trouble backing in, I am happy to help. Each spot has a fire pit with first firewood supplied, (additional be purchased) and a picnic table. Surrounding area is sagebrush, 2 miles from Wallowa National Forest with miles and miles of wilderness trails, lakes and Mountain fishing, ATVs, hiking, biking. You can ride your ATVs right from the camp. There is huckleberry and mushroom picking in early summer and late spring. Local wildlife consists of deer, elk, eagles and owls, pheasants, quail, wild turkeys, all kinds of birds, (even an occasional farm chicken may wander by) and coyotes and frogs calling at night. My friendly labs like to come say hi. Campsites are for tents or RVs. Our electric is shared among the campsites. Our water is from a wonderful deep cold well that’s piped to a shared outlet in the middle of the RV camp. Bring a hose to hook up, we have one if you need one. Guest Wi-Fi if you’re close to the store. Cell service is limited. I do allow generators if you are not sharing the park with anyone else. If you’re the only ones, no quiet time, if others are camping, quiet time is from 10:00 pm - 7:00 am. Site 1: largest fire pit, close to the power hook up, the most shady spot but still sunny, closest to the park. Site 2: A bit of shade, most of the day in sun. Closest to water hook up. Site 3: A Sunny site, a little late afternoon shade. A little more privacy as it’s the last spot. Farthest stretch for water and power, but I provide an extension power cord to it. Our little store has items you may need if you run out or forget something. We also sell regular gas.

Big Firs Site 1
1 Night in a Ghost Town
We arrived later than we expected, Lori was wait in for us and welcoming! Her site is ~ 15 miles out off the highway; however, it is quiet, pastoral and peaceful. We had to leave early, but would have enjoyed staying longer.

A small group of friends reserved and enjoyed Pondosa's camping sites and features. Very welcoming owners and store has extra supplies and food if needed.

RV or tent Site 2
Pondosa was a perfect small group camping site for a bunch of quilting friends. The yurt not only provided sleeping quarters but a dry place to sew for the group. The RV sites were clean and stocked with fire wood.

Sunny Site 3
Pondosa was fabulous for a small group. We used the Yurt, and 2 sites for a quilting/camping among friends trip. The Yurt/tent stood up to blustery winds and rains keeping us dry and productive during the day.

Glamping Yurt Tent
Camp and quilt for a small group
This was ideal for a small group. Used 2 RV sites and Yurt. Set up sewing machines in Yurt and worked on Quilts during day.

Glamping Yurt Tent
There were a few mistakes in the reservation and it took time to sort everything out. The yurt was lovely, but it got very cold. Maybe an additional blanket could be provided.
