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!

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.

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 for the rate!

Great location for skiing at Northstar. The kitchenette really helps so you can just have some fruit, cereal or use the microwave to make yourself some hot breakfast. No stove in the kitchenette though.

My wife and I attended a friend’s wedding in the area and spent 4 nights in this unit. The unit is clean, comfortable, and cozy. Description of the unit was accurate. Several village businesses were closed since it was off-peak. Overall a good experience for us.

As advertised

External corridor unit in Timber Creek Lodge with associated parking and small kitchenette. Clean, comfortable though with limited space to unpack clothes. Unfortunate drunk folks in the hallway outside visiting friend in adjacent unit making a racket woke us up in the middle of the night (midnight) one of the nights.

Great location, 2 minutes walking to the lifts!

We stayed here with 2 little kids for about 7 days, overall it was great experience. Few issues we noticed: the refrigerator and microwave was kind of smelly. We also ran out of toilet paper, shampoo and all that stuff, they didn't clean the room on a regular basis while you stay (not a big deal to bring it with you or buy it in Safeway - 6 miles away). Internet didn't work in our room, we had LTE hotspot, so it didn't bother us as well.

Great location

Rating Details: The property manager was more than helpful. The vacation rental was very clean. I was very happy with the location. I was satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: Can't beat the location. Condo was clean and well stocked. We normally go with more of our family and get larger places with big kitchens for cooking, this is not that. A small fridge held our item for breakfast and we ate the rest of our meals out, which was fine for this quick trip. Only issues we the wireless did not work and the toilet handle broke early in our stay so we had to remove the tank cover to flush.
