Great, great location! Love the kitchen too! Everything was very clean and full of sheets, towels, etc. Will definitely be back and highly recommend if you want to be in the village and not pay the crazy prices the other people charge in the newer part of the village. Parking was excellent too!

Great very clean, perfect location.

We loved staying in this condo. It was super clean, well stocked, and in the perfect location steps from the gondola. Fit our family of four with plenty of space and very comfortable sofa sleeper for the kids. Host was responsive. Check in and out a breeze. We are already looking into renting again!

Perfect ski location

Wonderful, cozy apartment, very convenient for skiers. The gondola is only a short walk away. There is a locker to put your skies in, perfectly situated to cut the walk to the gondola even shorter. The kitchen and the rest of the apartment is very well equipped with everything you need and the bed upstairs is very comfy (we didn't use the other sleeping options). Jo Ann is a wonderful host, very thoughtful and responsive. Highly recommend!

Great condo in Northstar Village

We stayed in this unit last year so this is our 2nd 5 star review. Jo Ann was a great host. The condo was perfect for me and my two daughters for our long weekend ski getaway. It's in Timber Creek Lodge just across from Copper Lane, a 2 minute walk to the gondola. There's a queen bed in the loft, a hideaway bed, and additional bedding. The kitchen and amenities are great. It's on the 3rd floor so it was very quiet with no noise from above. Highly recommended - I'm sure we'll be back!

Excellent location and homeowner

Very comfortable stay for a family of three. The location doesn't get any better than this - the condo is in the Village and 2-3 min walk away from the Big Springs Gonola and the Village Express lift. Copperlane Provisions and Arcos are directly across from the condo - very convenient for last minute burrito and grocery runs. We were hit with a severe snow storm during our stay, so the covered parking and the gear locker in the covered parking area turned out to be a god send. The homeowner is extremely responsive and helpful. We had to contact her for a few things throughout the stay and she got back to us within minutes. We had a few odd requests and she was very accommodating and followed up with us before our arrival to make sure everything was set up accordingly. AND the place is spotless. Gold star.

Northstar village condo

We had a wonderful time staying at Jo Ann’s condo despite exceptionally bad weather. I contacted Jo Ann since it looked like we would arrive a little early and she immediately responded and was very helpful. We spent a lot more time inside than we had hoped but we all felt so cozy and warm hanging out on the couches with amazing pillows and blankets. The house was clean and fully stocked. There’s a grocery store literally right across from the condo that had everything we needed (and a lot more, surprisingly). We all enjoyed the jacuzzi upstairs in the loft, especially after our day of skiing. The gondola is very close by, easily walkable while carrying both my own and my sons skies. We went to the rec center a few times, which costs $10 per person per day if you bring the renters pass which Jo Ann provides, for the arcade which the kids loved, and had a great time sitting in the big hot tub while it was snowing. We would absolutely love coming back to this condo for our next snow adventure! Thank you Jo Ann!

Walk everywhere, no shuttle required, quaint view into the village with high ceilings. Kitchen has essentials with compact but smart storage and fridge. Sofa bed linens were half missing, typical Vacasa, but not enough to detract from a really nice stay.

Cozy little oasis

We were in town for a family wedding in Tahoe City. This condo was perfect to get away from the hubbub of the wedding planning and close enough to many other activities. The village has lots of great restaurants and fun social scene at night. The AC in the condo was appreciated over this warm weekend. We had easy check-in, parking and charging station were nearby. Jo Ann (our host) is amazing with sending instructions and parking pass prior to arrival. Unit was well equipped and beds were comfy. Looking forward to our next trip.

Awesome Timber Creek Unit

We love this 3rd floor loft unit! Timber Creek is in a great ski in / ski out location in the village, just across from Copper Lane Provisions (the mini grocery store and deli). Kitchen and downstairs bath were recently remodeled and the dining nook and living room furniture are wonderful. Unit was very clean and had everything we needed for our visit. The owner is incredibly helpful and responsive. Thanks again!

Northstar Village Haven

This was our second stay at Jo Ann’s condo in Northstar Village. Needless to say we are in love with her place. Centrally located but just far enough off the main village area (ice rink) to allow for more privacy and quiet. It can get a bit noisy in the early hours when they are prepping the slopes and clearing the parking lots and walking areas but nothing that a pair of earplugs can’t solve. Her place is immaculate and beautifully decorated. We dined in a couple nights and found the kitchen had all the necessary utensils and appliances. It is the perfect winter getaway. Jo Ann is also a wonderful host, very responsive when needed and genuinely worked to make our stay super enjoyable. We will be back.

Wonderful Northstar condo!

This is a great place to stay in the village. Joann is a wonderful host and very responsive. We arrived a little early and she was so kind to let us in using her phone app. The place is very clean and well stocked with towels and toiletries. It was very nice to have covered parking and a locker to store our skis. Such a great location in the village and just steps to the gondola. There is a Keurig with pods provided for morning coffee. We had a lovely stay here. Thanks Joann!

Awesome Timber Creek

We had a wonderful time in this ski in / ski out condo! Property manager was gracious and responsive. Cleaning crew was excellent. Condo was well appointed with everything we needed for our weekend visit. Timber Creek is one of the earliest buildings in the village - meaning the quality of the units varies widely based on how recently they were updated. This is one of the good ones!! This condo has fresh granite in the kitchen and an updated bathroom, which made for very pleasant accommodations. Leather furniture looked to be brand new. The loft provided a bunch of space for us to spread out. We will be back!

Why they chose this property

Took a liking to skiing and mountain biking and found that Northstar-at-Tahoe has been my favorite place to go, so I decided to purchase one of the original condos there. My family enjoys the multitude of activities and everyone has a great time. This condo has been a delight to own..

What makes this property unique

To find a condo that provides walking distance to the ski and bike lifts make this unit so desirable. It has covered parking which is a big plus. You could be setup for a period of time and no worries about shoveling snow off the car or the hot sun in the summer. There is a rec area with tennis courts, games, weigh room, swimming and spas. The area is so beautiful and peaceful. The condo itself has an updated kitchen with a huge granite counter top and new appliances. Under counter refrigeration and a wine cabinet. There is enough room to seat over 8 people for dinner. The loft upstairs has a queen bed and bathroom with jacuzzi tub. 2nd full bathroom down stairs. New hide-a-bed for sleeping down stairs along with 2 Tri-Fold Pads for additional sleeping. Wireless Wifi, Cable TV, ....
