Bonanza Ponderosa Tour: Main Floor and Upstairs [CG Tour]

Tour the Ponderosa home from Bonanza. You'll get to take a virtual tour of the main floor and upstairs. You'll also learn some fun Bonanza behind the scenes information about the show. This is an amazing example of good set design and of a ranch house from the old west. The show starred: Lorene Greene as Ben Cartwright, Pernell Roberts as Adam Cartwright, Dan Blocker as Hoss and Michael Landon as Little Joe.

If you love classic tv shows and tv homes, you'll love this channel. We walk around inside of them as though the tv houses existed in real life.

I love Bonanza so much since I was chilhood.
Now since 40 years ago by now, I can watch Bonanza on youtube with so completed episodes.
Thank you for making this house touring of Bonanza.
I missed Ben, Adam, Hoss and Little Joe.

Hoss did not get that nickname from Adam - he got it from his mother, there is an episode that explains all this. I think it is " Inger, my love."

As a little girl, Bonanza was one of my favourite tv shows. My favourite horse was "Little Joe's" because I loved Pinto Horses especially black and white. Thank-you for showing me the Ponderosa Homestead. 💖💖💖

Having not watched the show since I was a child, this brings back wonderful memories. Once again you have done a superb job! Thank you!

Another great house for you to examine is the house from Big Valley. The staircase is the most interesting aspect of the house in relation to the fact that it is a TV house. The staircase appears frequently (almost weekly) in "Perry Mason". It is also the identical staircase used in "The Ghost and Mrs. Muir" for Gull Cottage. The staircase and landing is immediately identifiable because actors had to mount the stairs, turn left and descend two or three stairs from the landing to get to the bedrooms. This can be seen most readily in "Ghost...", but can also be seen in "Big Valley" and "Perry Mason". Still another great place for you to visit is Collinwood from "Dark Shadows".

I had the good fortune to tour this house in 1973. It was wonderful. The original horses were still stabled there. Being a horse lover and ridden all my life I was in love with Little Joe’s paint horse named Cochise. Thanks for the ride down memory lane once more.

Wow, this was awesome!! How about Big Valley mansion in the future?

[gailwatson]

I never realized how massive the fireplace was. Loved the tour. Thank you.

Absolutely awesome, I just love Bonanza, I have seasons 1-6 due to my love for Adam but I still watch the remaining seasons as well on Metv. Thank you so very very much. I've thoroughly enjoyed watching and feeling like a huge part of my most very favorite Western. Just wish that I could have met the Cartwright actors in person before their passing but I am and will forever be a huge dedicated devoted Bonanza tv show fan throughout all eternity.❤️🥰💯👍

To me, the Ponderosa perfectly balances the rustic and the refined. Who wouldn't want to live in such a place?

I love the detail you put onto these episodes. The Ponderosa was my favorite western home. This is the first time I have ever viewed the kitchen.

[adrienedenise]

Bonanza is one of my fav, western shows. You did a great job with the layout. I was super excited when you mentioned Little House On The Prairie, can't wait for that.

[shirleymonroe]

THANK YOU THANK YOU. This was awesome. I love it. 😂 watch Bonanza every day. Now I will be looking for these different things in terms of the ranch ❤❤❤

[lynettepatten]

Really fun. Thanks. A fond memory was visiting the Bonanza exterior set complex by Incline, Lake Tahoe. I remember walking in the “fancy” entrance and it was tiny behind it(just enough room for actors and cameras).

[captainboromir]

For years I have wanted a Bonanza video game. I think it would be cool. Glad you made this! Love the detail you put into this!

This was a great way to re-live the ‘60s, in my childhood living room. It’s 9pm on Sunday night on WNBC TV, Bonanza! I was an early teen and remember it was sponsored by Chevrolet. It was a great time for television and one of the first shows “brought to you in living color” complete with the peacock! Thanks for doing the video.

[kansascityonline]

most excellent review of the Ponderosa.. thank you

[monakayk]

I love and watch Bonanza all the time when it was 1st on TV....I still watch reruns of it now. Our family went to the Ponderosa Ranch @ Lake Tahoe in the early 90s. Your tour is really similar to the way the house looked in real life. Thanks for making and sharing this video with all of us! I would like to see a tour of The High Chaparral house done on your episodes.

[Adina]

It would be great to seethe home from the 1960s show Hazel. You always do a wonderful job!Thank you❤️

I've looked forward to touring this home for months and once again, Marina, you did not disappoint. I hope one day you'll get around to doing South Fork Ranch from Dallas.
