About this property

Ski-In at Timber Creek in at Northstar

Take your next mountain getaway to this charming and centrally located studio in the heart of Northstar Village. With two cozy queen beds and a well-equipped kitchenette (including a microwave, hot plate, mini fridge, coffee maker, toaster, and all the essentials for light cooking), this studio offers a comfortable and convenient stay for small families or couples looking to enjoy all that Tahoe has to offer.

Located just a short walk from the Village gondola and nestled below the iconic ice skating rink, you'll be steps away from shopping, dining, entertainment, and even a Starbucks to kick off your day. The location can't be beat—close to the slopes in winter and perfectly positioned for summer fun.

As a guest, you'll have access to the Northstar Recreation Center for a small daily fee ($10 per person), where you can enjoy multiple outdoor hot tubs, a large fitness center, game room with pool tables and air hockey, and a kid-friendly atmosphere. During summer, guests can cool off in the Junior Olympic-sized swimming pool, kiddie pool, or lap pool. There's also a kid's camp, play area, and the popular Snack Shack for easy bites by the pool.

For outdoor enthusiasts, summer brings access to mountain biking trails (with lift service to the top), hiking, tennis courts with a pro available, a roller skating rink, an 18-hole championship golf course, and even horseback riding at the nearby equestrian center.

In the winter months, Northstar Resort transforms into a winter playground. Ski or snowboard on Lookout Mountain's expanded terrain, test your skills at the Terrain Park and Super Pipe, or enjoy snow tubing and cross-country skiing. After a day on the mountain, relax by the fire pits, explore the shops, grab a bite at one of the restaurants, or enjoy après-ski drinks at the Village bars.

Looking for more? You're just minutes from North Lake Tahoe where you can enjoy boating, kayaking, jet skiing, paddle boarding, parasailing, or simply relaxing lakeside. For a night out, the North Shore Casinos are just 20 minutes away and offer gaming, dining, and live entertainment.

Whether you're hitting the slopes in winter or exploring the lake and trails in summer, this cozy Northstar studio puts you in the center of it all!

Very comfortable stay at a great location

The apartment was well-equipped and very comfortable. It came with a parking spot which was very convenient. Its central location being in the village also made all activities very accessible.

Perfect for a ski weekend!

This property was great and so perfect for a little ski getaway! Located right in the Northstar Village, it was super convenient to get to the gondola each day. Would definitely stay again and recommend to others!

Disappointed

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was somewhat dirty. I was very happy with the location. I was very dissatisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I do not recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: Not a kitchenette ~ no stove, no oven, teeny refrigerator, and tiny sink. Similar to the exterior and elevator, in general disrepair (e.g., plaster repair, worn sheets, broken hanging hooks), in need of redesign, fresh linen, new mattress, etc. Property management personnel were very helpful, capable, and kind.

Great ski trip base

While a little small, the room was ideally located to be a base for a few days of ski adventures! Right in the middle of the village, we had access to everything. The room had all we needed so we could focus on being on the slopes.

Nice Timber Creek Lodge Stay

We spent a delightful weekend in this Timber Creek Lodge unit. TCL is very conveniently located in the village, being right next to the little convenience store and a couple minutes walk from the Gondola. Unit was clean, cozy, and had everything we needed. Thank you!

Great little place

The location is awesome! Just steps away from the gondola! The studio is about the size of a hotel room, but has everything you need. Two comfy beds, a balcony to see what's going on in the village, a small kitchen and a fabulous bathroom. We loved it.

Perfect for a small family

The unit was perfect for our family of 4. The proximity to dining, hot tub, and gondola was unrivaled. My only advice for folks planning to spend your last day at Northstar beyond check-out, make sure you reserve a parking spot in advance. Otherwise, you will need to park off-site and bus in.

Great use of the space!

We loved the kitchenette and counter space. It was a great use of every inch of space in the studio room. Very functional. Especially for a family of four. And perfect location walking distance to gondola. The actual bedding is better than bedding shown in photo. The ease of using lockbox code and parking pass was nice.
