Overview

Settle in and make the best mountain memories at this fantastic retreat sitting mere minutes from fresh powder and family-friendly activities of NorthStar! Boasting rustic cabin-like decor and furnishings, a wood-burning fireplace, and a balcony to enjoy the crisp mountain air with a morning cup of joe or evening glass of wine. Entertaining the whole gang after a day on the slopes will be a breeze with the fully equipped kitchen featuring a gas range to prepare tasty meals and a living area with a plush leather sectional sofa and flatscreen TV to stream favorite shows on.

Come winter, NorthStar and the unbeatable ski runs will be calling your name, so bring your gear along and shred fresh powder to your heart's content just under a mile from home base. Don't worry about driving either, as the five-minute shuttle ride can whisk you to the mountain in no time. Venture out a bit further and you can easily find yourself in downtown Truckee (seven miles north) or taking a dip in the blue waters of Lake Tahoe (eight miles southeast).

Enjoy access to the Northstar recreation center amenities, which include tennis courts, basketball courts, a fitness center, a sauna, a hot tub, a seasonal lap pool, and an open grill area next to a beautiful creek surrounded by pine, fir, and aspen trees. (Site rentals include the use of three picnic tables and up to two gas BBQ grills with grilling utensils.) There is a $10 daily fee per person for use of the facilities, payable directly at the Recreation Center upon entry. This is just a quick drive or 1 mile walk. Please keep in mind there are many stairs to home.

As noted, and we were well informed there are many steps up to the house and house itself is three stories. Restrooms on main level and third level. Everything was quiet, clean and well maintained. We enjoyed our time in this home.

The house is priced right for what it is - a fine place with a good location to crash in if you’re having an active trip to Tahoe. Some aspects are a bit dated - but plenty of good cooking supplies and it was clean, and had a great location. Bummer we couldn’t use the grill - and the pool/hot tub costs $10/per person. Just know before ya go.

We had a really nice time staying here. I loved the cabin/woodsy vibe of the decor, so much character and way nicer furnishings than a lot of Ikea-based vacation rentals. I know some other reviews mentioned it was dated but for us that added to the charm and overall cabin-y vibe. This would be a great place for someone/a group wanting to do cooking at home as the kitchen is loaded w basically anything (knives/pots/pans/cooking utentils/bowls/grater/ you name it) you would need for most meals. The rec center with the access to the gym and pool was a 15 min walk or so because the northstar shuttles weren't running the month we were there, but it was a fairly easy walk and worth it.

The convenience of this unit inside of Northstar with access to the shuttle was what we were looking for. The unit is dated but offered enough space and basics for our group. The fireplace and BBQ are off limits to guests, there is no hairdryer in the unit. One note about location, it is at the very top of the collection of units so when there is a lot of snow it might take a bit of time to carefully run everything up and down to the car!
