Overall this is one of the better RV parks we've visited and certainly the best in a town. We came…read morein after the 1PM close on Sunday and our info was on the door as stated. The gravel sites, hookups and landscape are in very good shape. A key is needed for the laundry and restrooms, pick it up during office hours. The restrooms and laundry are nice and clean. The WiFi supports the laptop but for me at least not the TV. The staff is helpful and friendly. This park is in a very nice neighborhood:-). They have very nice storage and RV storage fenced in behind the park.

Visited September 26th…read more I checked out this place because I have friends that have their kids enrolled at Chico State. Because they live in Southern California they wanted to have some options for all of us to stay at. This one marked off all the boxes! It was built in the 1904 with some original brick walls in the entry. Its a great location with parking garage next door and Walking distance to shops and restaurants! A real PLUS is they have a nice restaurant inside called The Grill with a full bar. Air conditioned rooms with free wifi and an elevator. Bank of America is across the street and the Rawbar is right next door! Great safe location! I can't wait to stay there with friends!

Visited again July 2nd 2026 for a one night stay…read more I upgraded to a balcony which was well worth it! The room was sleek and clean and they had a comfy doggy bed and water and a toy for my pup! The bed was super comfortable and the huge walk in shower had boutique soaps and toiletries which were really nice! You can also buy something from the stocked bar as well. I love this place because I am a swimmer and was able to swim two days in a row! Jacuzzi was so relaxing as well! Bonus is they also have a wet steam and dry sauna in the gym area right off the pool. All the amenities I look for! I enjoyed waglu meatballs at the downstairs bar and then ordered charcuterie at the rooftop bar alittle later. Dog friendly on the rooftop as well as outside patio by the pool. Paulo and the staff are exceptional! LILY was a Rockstar and the Manager was so kind and thoughtful! He got some of the staff together and sang me happy birthday! Love the beautiful cake ( Marley made it I think). It was so relaxing and I had plenty to do while my boyfriend was watching soccer! Next day had their farmers breakfast which was delicious ( they have a sit down restaurant as well). I will be back in September as I had a fabulous time again in this beautiful hotel! What's interesting is I had plans to stay at the Kimpton Sawyer in Sacramento but this spot is safer for me at night! Btw..trying to download 49 pics and videos!

The grounds are lush and well tended, the pool and hot tub sparkling with comfortable lounging. Rooms are comfortable and clean with individual patios. Ours led out to the pool area. They provide a free continental breakfast with the standard fare. There is also small gift/snack shop at registration. Owners are friendly and accommodating. We happened to book on Johnny Appleseed festival weekend which was just a short walk away. This an amazing town that has the spirit to literally rise from the ashes. Paradise Ridge Rising!

The owners keep the rooms and the grounds in immaculate condition. They are friendly, accommodating, and have created a little oasis up in Paradise. We lived up in Paradise, California for 21 years and had many times when we were holding events and had lots of relatives coming into town for a visit and needing a comfortable bed for the night. We heard nothing but rave reviews from all of them about the Ponderosa Gardens Motel. We needed a room one night and called up to book it. The front desk were very kind and the room rates reasonable. We loved the pool! It is clean and refreshing. The entire motel is appealing to the eye and you can tell that the owners have worked very hard to create such a meticulous motel. The fire up in Paradise, California in 2018 necessarily closed them down, but they worked very hard and made the motel even nice than it was before! Hard to believe they could outdo themselves, but they did and they are open for business again. Yippee! I'm going to be calling their reservation desk to make time this summer to get back up there and relax for a few days. It is quiet up in Paradise and it is such a lovely motel I've just got to get up there and check it out again. One more thing - Paradise is in the foothills above Chico, California, so if you're looking for a place to stay for an event in Chico, keep Ponderosa Gardens Motel in mind. It takes about 15 minutes to get from Paradise down to Chico, 20 minutes from Paradise to the Chico Butte College campus and 10-15 minutes to get to the main campus, 30 minutes to get from Paradise to the Chico State University.
