Property was perfect for a spring skiing session. The location was perfect and such great amenities! The only thing that would’ve made the stay better was if we stayed longer! Thanks for a wonderful experience.

Great place and location

The place was perfect for our group of 3 friends and would comfortably fit more. The place was spotless and the open living room and kitchen were great for cooking and hanging out. It was a quick 5-10 minute walk to the gondola and we were able to ski all the way back to the place.

Perfect little condo!

Perfect little condo for a family of 4! Very clean and comfortable. Very easy to communicate with management. Great location with a shuttle to the North Star Village. The house is fully equipped with everything you could need. The owners even left us lovely little extras to make our Thanksgiving stay feel special. Would absolutely stay here again and would recommend to others!

Great condo for our Northstar ski trip

This condo is conveniently located next to Northstar. You can drive 2-3 minutes or take the shuttle directly from the parking lot. We stayed with our family of 4 and there was plenty of space. The space is warm, inviting and cozy. Kitchen is well equipped. As a guest, we had access to the gym (additional payment required) and the game room. Parking is easy and directly out front. Highly recommend for your next Tahoe adventure.

Truckee tourney

The sound of the creek, the smell of the air, and all the comforts of home made this the most relaxing baseball tourney weekend. Plenty of towels, comfy beds with cozy blankets, clean, and simple check-in and check-out process. The property manager even texted to ensure we had everything we needed. We will be back for sure.
