Our calendar is updated in real-time & our nightly rates are accurately displayed. Simply enter your desired dates and click 'Book Now!'
Spend some quality time together in this peaceful home with room for everyone. Enjoy sitting (or grilling) out on the deck with fresh forest air surrounding you at every turn. Though you might be tempted might want to spend your whole break playing board games in front of the stone gas fireplace. When it's time for meals, the spacious full kitchen features full-size appliances (including a wall-mounted double oven!), a cute two-person breakfast nook under a round window, and a two-corner breakfast bar that seats six guests total. Both a DVD player and a Blu-Ray player are on hand for enjoying your favorites while on vacation. The nearby Northstar Ski Resort provides a shared pool, tennis court, a fitness center, and much more for guests to enjoy during their stay.
To reach the first bedroom of this home, turn left as you enter the front door and head past the living room. This room near the hub of activity is the main bedroom of the home, and features a two-window view of the neighborhood in addition to an en suite bathroom with a shower/tub combination. The rest of the bedrooms are all upstairs, starting with the second overall bedroom just to the right of the top of the stairs. This lovely room features a neighborhood view and a vaulted ceiling. Past the hallway's full bathroom (featuring a shower/tub combination), the third bedroom is all set up for multiple guests with framed outdoor photography. Down the hall and past the upstairs den, the fourth bedroom features extra seating for guest comfort. The fifth and final bedroom is just past the second upstairs bathroom (featuring a shower/tub combination for guest use), and is all set up for multiple guests with extra seating.
