No vending machines. Located in a town that shuts down by 8pm. Got woke up at 4:45am to the neighbors cooking something that smelt like something horrible. The nicest part of this stay was the showers and the view but not the property itself

Great time at the Ponderosa Lodge Red River

Red River is a small town and all restaurants close by night. We hit a snow diving in so we didn’t make it in time to eat dinner. The owner offered us a large pizza he had. Was probably one the best experiences I’ve ever had at a hotel. They are remodeling but the rooms were great. Would recommend 100%
