Northstar Ski Condo! Ski-in/Ski-out Access! Short walk to Village!

This 900 square foot 2 bedroom, 2 bath condo is centrally located to all Northstar has to offer no matter the season. Just a short walk across the parking lot is access to a ski lift in the winter, or a bike trail in the summer.

*Please be advised that this home does not have air conditioning.

After a long day on the slopes, guests can cozy up on the comfy couch located in the living room. A few steps over in the newly-updated kitchen with stainless steel appliances and granite countertops, guests can also prepare a meal.

The primary bedroom offers a queen size bed and television. The second bedroom has one bunk and one twin, and additional sleeping room is available on the fold out couch in the living room. There is also a new sound system and free wireless internet access available for your convenience. A community laundry room is available on the first level.

From the condo, guests are just a short walk to the Village at Northstar California, home to a wide variety of summer and winter activities. The home is also only a few miles from Lake Tahoe where you can find boating, jet skiing, parasailing, kayaking, shopping, and sightseeing activities.

Northstar Condo

This is a wonderful condo and made for an enjoyable stay in Truckee. It’s walking distance to the village, there were lots of parking spaces, and the property management provided everything you would need (shampoo, conditioner, lotion, dishwasher pods, laundry pods, etc.). We also took advantage of the NPOA Rec Center, which was lots of fun for the kids.

Very nice home, we really enjoyed our stay here. The kitchen was very nice and stocked with all the necessary appliances. We enjoyed our Thursday evening playing board games with our kids that the home had for us.

Super convenient ski condo

The place had an awesome location just steps away from Village Run. Place was clean and well organized. There were even games to keep the kids occupied as we napped after a long day of skiing. Only minor issue was that it wasn't the easiest unit to find as it's around in the back, so definitely try to get there during the day rather than around midnight like we did.

The property is very nice. The location is unbeatable, conveniently located close walking distance to Northstar Village, the Big Springs Express gondola and the Village Express chairlift. The unit is very clean and well maintained. The upstairs master bedroom lacks privacy as there is a slatted door rather than a solid door. Sound travels easily from the lower level to the upstairs master bedroom. The host is Natural Retreats, a property management company. Interactions with the property management company are very impersonal and lack the personal touch of communicating directly with an individual owner. My one request during the visit was to park in the common parking lot (where there was an abundance of open parking spaces) after my check-out time. We had rented the unit for a weekend (Friday-to-Sunday) ski visit, and we planned to ski Saturday and Sunday. Using the Ski Trails condo parking area would have allowed us to take advantage of the ski-in / ski-out location of the property for our two days of skiing. The ski-in / ski-out location was the primary reason we rented the property. Our request was outright rejected. Initially it was rejected by what appeared to be an automated text response. I then tried calling the office. I received a call back from a number in Virginia, who again rejected my request. Based on this experience, I would avoid renting any properties managed by Natural Retreats.

Cozy condo with easy access to lifts

This is our second time at this property, and just like last time, we had a great stay. All the kitchen appliances worked well, and having two bathrooms was very convenient. The walk down to the gondola and village lift was short and sweet, as was the walk back up at the end of each day. In the evenings, our kids loved playing the "Guess Who" board game, and it was easy to hook our Switch up to the TV for family gaming sessions. We'll definitely be back!
