About this property

Northstar Mountain Retreat | Powder Days Retreat, Hot Tub, Game Room

  • Welcome to Northstar Mountain Retreat!

    This bright and spacious home is perfect for two families traveling together, with 3 bedrooms, 3.5 baths, a private hot tub, and a two-car garage. Enter through the garage or the covered front steps and stone foyer. In winter, the Northstar shuttle route means easy lift access and no parking hassle. It's family-friendly and suitable for 1-2 families or 3 couples.

    What we love most is the bright, open great room, with floor-to-ceiling windows, views of Martis Valley, and a wood stove, plus a separate hangout space for the kids. The spacious kitchen has granite countertops and stainless steel appliances, with a dining table for 8 and a breakfast bar for 4. The primary suite has a king bed, a gas fireplace, and an en suite bath with a stand-up shower and jacuzzi tub.

    Downstairs, the den is a cozy hangout with a smart TV, an L-shaped couch, a gas fireplace, and a wet bar, and it opens to the private hot tub. Two more bedrooms, a queen suite with its own bath and a bunk bedroom, round out the floor, and a mud room off the garage gives you plenty of winter storage.

    Cozy up by one of the three fireplaces, play a game, or soak in the hot tub after a day in the Sierras. Your stay includes guest access to the Northstar Recreation Amenities (clubhouse with a gym, heated pool, multiple spas, and a game room) for $10 per person per day.

    Upstairs (Main Level):
    Great room with wood stove, smart TV, and floor-to-ceiling views of Martis Valley
    Front deck off the main living space

    Other things to note:
    Parking: 3 parking spots.
    Cameras: This property has external security cameras by the front door and the garage.
    Winter 2026/2027: Gas grills may not be accessible during the winter months, and fuel levels are not monitored from November 1 to May 1. Decks are shoveled for structural safety only and are not guaranteed to be clear of snow during winter.
    Mountain living: Living in the mountains and staying in a private home means some things are outside our control. For example, severe weather has occasionally knocked out the Wi-Fi and power. While these instances are rare, we ask for your patience when they happen. We'll do our best to accommodate all requests, and situations like these (power outages, appliance issues, etc.) are handled on a case-by-case basis.

It was a great location with great amenities. The free shuttle to the village was very convenient.The house is beautiful and great for families with kids with lots of beds in the bunk room and a nice area for kids to play. The “mud” room was perfect to keep all of our ski gears. The kitchen area is very nice and well stocked with appliances and tools.

Family Tahoe Trip

We visit Tahoe often with some or all of the family. This last stay was exceptional, as the house layout, amenities and comfort helped us all enjoy our stay that much more. The property management team was awesome in making our check in and stay effortless and carefree and were accommodating to all of our needs. We will be back.

We had a wonderful stay here this weekend -- this was the perfect space for our group of two families (four adults and four kids). The house is well-appointed and even nicer than pictured. We enjoyed the hot tub, the hiking trails right off property, the Northstar amenities, and the beautiful patio. Thanks for a fantastic stay and we'd love to return!

The house is beautiful and well appointed. Lots of space for everyone including a large kitchen. The only comments were about the three steep steps into the kitchen with no handrail to help us older folks. The driveway is a challenge but we managed! Wonderful stay.
