Our "Old Guys" ski group enjoyed our stay. The accommodations were comfortable and spacious, the ski lifts were just a short distance away, and the hot tub was a great place to gather at the end of each day on the slopes.

Great house at Northstar

Walking distance to the village. House was very spacious (much bigger than pictures) and slept 7 comfortably.

Spacious home in a great location

If you want a nice size place walkable to northstar, this is it. Great house overall with multiple levels, ideal if you have kids. The bonus living room and den with the hot tub right out the door was super convenient. The furnishing are a bit dated and the kitchen equipment are a bit scattered.More towels and better kitchen setup would make it 5 star

Absolutely beautiful house with plenty of space and good layout. House is close to Northstar village but due to way roads are laid out it’s not as quick to get as I expected. We came for a ski trip so there was lots of snow on the ground so you can’t walk to village. House could easily hold two couples and four kids with beds for all. Pros: Beautiful houseGarage Beds were greatKitchenAmazing hot tubVery cleanCons:Very limited creature comforts (blankets, lamps, tissues, kitchen towels)Dishwasher didn’t workFireplace is wood burning so not the easiest or fastestNo towels specifically for hot tub so we were limited on number of towels

Extremely disappointing experience as the Wi-Fi was not available for the entire stay. As a result none of the TVs worked as well. I spent my vacation time making numerous phone calls and text messages requesting assistance and while management mostly responded, in the end we continued to not have wifi throughout our stay. The information provided on the VRBO webpage clearly indicated Wi-Fi and TV would be available. We had individuals who needed to perform work as well as simply for TV and general Wifi uses.
