About this property

True SKI IN / SKI OUT!! Ski by the Livingroom window.

This one bedroom, one bath Ski Trail condo lets you literally bike JUST A FEW FEET FROM YOUR FRONT DOOR . The front window is right on the trail. Park the car, forget about the shuttle, and stop carrying your equipment hundreds of yards. We have two boot dryers/heaters for your use. (And the secure locker just outside the front door lets you leave your gear outside the unit.)

The living room features a large leather sectional sofa, real wood-burning fireplace with gas starter, and a 55-inch wall-mounted HD flat panel TV with HD programming and a DVD/DVR. We also provide high speed internet access via a high speed cable connection and Wi-Fi.

The kitchen includes a large refrigerator with ice maker, gas stove and oven, dishwasher, microwave and coffee maker. You can eat at the pass-through bar between the kitchen and living room, or use the table, which can accommodate four.

In addition to the queen-size bed in the bedroom, the living room sofa easily converts to a queen-size sleeper. Two foam sleeping pads are also available for floor use, and are great for kids. We have added a queen size air bed. Very comfortable.

Your stay will also give you access to (and gated, private parking at) the recreation center ($10.00 per person per day), which has a complete workout gym, an outdoor heated lap pool open year-round, and three large hot tub spas available only to Ski Trail owners and guests.

Hidden gem in Northstar

Really loved our stay. Was originally going with my son for spring break. At the last minute, one of his friends and friends' dad came along as well. Was worried if the place was big enough but no issues at all. Everyone was comfortable and had a great time. Real ski in/out makes such a big difference. Would definitely stay here again.

The place is cozy and the exact location my husband and I needed to be able to tag team between the kids and mountain biking (the same would go for skiing, too).

Northstar ski condo

The condo is in a perfect location for ski in and ski out. Communication with the owner was excellent. Condo is a bit dated but is very comfortable and well appointed with everything we needed for our 3 day stay. We would definitely stay here again when we visit Northstar during the winter.

Can't Find a Better Place

When we want to ski Northstar and stay the weekend, this is the only place (or the first place) we will reach out. Every positive comment on Tom is warranted and perhaps understated.

Best stay!

The property was phenomenal. It is quite large inside (the photos don’t do it justice) and we found the space very clean. The heater worked great, there is a nice ski closet and the boot warmers were amazing. The location is unparalleled and being able to ski down to the chair lift was amazing. Highly recommend and can’t wait to come back and book again.

Description not accurate

The listing indicated that this condo could sleep 5. When we arrived, we only found sheets for one bed. The owner took a long time to respond to our concern and when he did he promised that sheets would be delivered. The sheets never showed up our entire stay. We ended up leaving a night early since my kids were so uncomfortable. I’m now working with VRBO for a refund of our last night, but again the owner isn’t responding. If you do book this place, bring your own sheets and towels. We also had communication issues with the owner to get access to the property. It took several texts and phone calls before he gave us the code to the door.

Amazing location!

My family of four just stayed at this property for four nights. Overall we were really pleased with our stay. Kiddos slept on the pull out couch which was kind of terrible/saggy, but otherwise everything was great. The bed was comfy and the room was really dark, great for sleeping. The boot dryers were so amazing and handy, as was the locker outside to store our skis and poles. The kitchen was well stocked and even had an electric water kettle to easily make tea and oatmeal. Lots of hooks just inside the door for hanging jackets and snowpants. And the location was amazing!! Was literally a 45 second walk from the door to the ski run. We try to stay on site at Northstar so we don’t hVe to deal with parking and preciously had stayed in the Village above the shops which was great, but we really liked this better. Also an easy walk to the Village via a path. Would definitely stay here again.

Coyote Fork Ski In/Out

Property is on Coyote Fork in the building closest to the Condo Run, so is very much a ski in / ski out location. You can literally look out the window and see the Village Express chairlift and the condo run (and the village run behind a few trees.) These condos were built some time ago (I want to say 1975?), so the units vary depending on when they were most recently remodeled. This unit was in good working order - perhaps last updated around 2000 (oven had a 25 year old serial number?) though furniture looked newer. Everything was clean; cleaners do a great job! Please do read the listing carefully - unlike any other location we've stayed, there was no shampoo or bath soap provided. There was a coffee pot, but no coffee (not even a partial open bag from a prior tenant...) Oh, as the last unit at the end of a bunch of stairs, you might want to consider driving down to the village for dinner (skiing back in isn't an option after the gondola closes down for the night) - there is free parking in the premium lots after 3 pm.

It was OK. The visit had a mix of pros and cons. Firstly, it's worth noting that the property is quite outdated, which might charm some guests but might not be everyone's cup of tea. A major issue was the bathtub faucet, which was already broken. The handle came off right in my hand, making it difficult to use. This is something that definitely needs attention. On the plus side, the property is affordable, and it's kept clean, with fresh linens provided. It's also a quiet place, which was welcomed. However, the furniture in the property is showing signs of wear and tear, and the rugs look like they've seen better days, with visible stains. There are a few burntout light bulbs. The master closet is full of odds and ends for the upkeep of the place, The fireplace was a cool feature however I did not use it. In summary, this property is a cost-effective and peaceful option. Just be prepared for some dated decor and a few maintenance concerns.

more attention from the host

The cabin was very dusty and gave us allergies. We had to shake all the blankets and pillows and the host never answered any messages we sent. We had to wait for help from the client to be able to enter since the access code was not the one sent in the information.

Convenient but needs updating

Condo is in the nice area of Northstar Resort. Good condo for 2 people. More than that would be crowded. Interior and furniture need updating. The previous update to the appears to be 25 or more years ago. It appeared that the condo was not used in a while as it smelled musty stale when we arrived. Upon entering the bedroom a huge spider was on the bed and many more were seen throughout the condo. Northstar Resort is close to Truckee, which is the reason we stayed there. Price is quite reasonable. We stayed in the same complex in 2024 and the unit was much nicer.
