Overview

Plan a comfortable and fun-filled North Lake Tahoe vacation at this three-bedroom Northstar home, where you'll enjoy a private game room and close proximity to ski slopes, golf, and other fantastic resort amenities. This two-level mountain view home sits just one mile from the Village at Northstar, where guests will find a variety of restaurants, cinemas, and the base of the Highlands, Village Express, and Big Springs Express Gondolas. You'll be two miles from Northstar California Golf, eight miles from Kings Beach, eight miles from Truckee, and 11 miles from the lovely shores of Donner Lake.

Step inside the living space to find an abundance of knotty pine details, which only enhance the cozy mountain atmosphere. Build a fire in the wood stove (wood is even provided), rest your ski legs on one of the three sofas as you read, or peruse the DVD and VHS collection for a favorite to watch on the flatscreen cable TV. Spend each morning in the well-equipped full kitchen, using the mixer, blender, and waffle iron to whip up a homemade meal. And there's no need to rush as you eat breakfast at the dining room table for eight - the convenient dishwasher will take care of the clean-up. Worried about overpacking for this summer or winter getaway? You'll have a private washer and dryer to refresh your outdoor wardrobe, as well as free WiFi to help you monitor the weather conditions. You'll always come home to a private deck, perfect for summer relaxation among the trees.

Guests can also take the free resort shuttle one mile to reach the NPOA Recreation Center, which offers year-round and seasonal pools, hot tubs, saunas, a tennis center, a gym, an adult clubhouse, and a game room with air hockey, Ping-Pong, billiards, and foosball (for a small daily fee). Whether you're planning a family ski vacation, a summer lake getaway, or simply looking for the comfort of a world-class resort community, Northstar is a place to enjoy the natural beauty of the Sierras. The mountain boasts 20 lifts and 100 trails across 3,170 acres - ideal terrain for intermediate skiers especially. Come summertime, the Robert Muir Graves-designed golf course features 18 scenic holes, while the NPOA Recreation Center offers year-round fun for all ages. You can swim laps, watch your kids enjoy the summer splash pad, take a soak in one of the hot tubs, or practice your serve at the seasonal tennis center.

THINGS TO KNOW
Access to the recreation center amenities costs an additional $10 per-day fee for each guest five years or older.

I do NOT recommend booking with Avari.
The host 'Avari' does not answer messages, whether it's a directly through AirBnB, or calling their number: and the number they list is not accurate - you're given another number to reach them. Just know in advance you will not get the help you need at the home if you book through Avari since they do not reply to any questions before your trip, and are not responsive.

The place itself was fine. Notes: no hot tub on site, the dryer may not work and the video game downstairs does not work. For those sleeping downstairs the heater is loud and kicks on in the middle of the night, If you're a light sleeper, I recommend sleeping upstairs. There's no seating on the deck, which is unfortunate because the area is beautiful. All of these things are manageable with advance warning.

The best part of the stay was Alicia who is the direct contact in Truckee. Despite a stressful stay, she maintained professionalism and understanding to the frustrating trip.

Loved the space and the place; had everything we needed, was cozy and remote - but not that far from town, groceries and activities. Would happily come back.

The property management team is new, which made getting some Q&A sorted out (we had two back-to-back reservations but struggled to connect with anyone from Avari). The local rep was super helpful, but getting to her required us to be on-site and get her name and number from the wall. Hopefully she can get Avari straightened out to make this an all 5s next time.
